Cabin holiday rentals in Tay Valley

what an amazing Place! !! everything we needed and clean,bright. peaceful. Loved it! we will def be back!!! thank you so much!!!

My family had the pleasure of staying here for the first week in June 2025. We had a fabulous week enjoying this fabulous cottage and its surroundings. The inside offered us all the comfort and things we needed, including an awesome hot tub "tub" complete with rolled towels, clothes pegs and plastic glasses! Everything was exceptionally clean and there were lots of great books and games to keep us entertained as we lazed around the beautiful property. The kayaks and paddle boards were so much fun as we explored both directions on the river. Honestly the property was SO nice we hardly wanted to leave it but we did manage to get out a few days to visit Ottawa and the cute towns of Perth & Almonte. Two fabulous restaurants we visited and recommend is Joe's Italian Kitchen (In Almonte) and Michael's Table in Perth. It was so nice to be able to bring our dog Russ who had the BEST time all week enjoying the water, boats and watching the wild life from his little fur rug in sunny bay window.

This was such a phenomenal place to stay. The access to the river was lovely, and the entire house had so many great touches and details. The kitchen is very well stocked, beds and pillows so so comfortable. Location was fantastic and close to everything you need. I will definitely be back to stay here again !

We had a wonderful time over the weekend! We will definitely be back!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Airbnb! It was the perfect family getaway. The house was impeccably clean and beautifully maintained, making it feel like a true home away from home. Our host was incredibly welcoming and thoughtful, always quick to respond and ensure we had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. The location offered so much to do — from outdoor activities and so many games there was never a dull moment. Whether we were enjoying the ice rink or hot tub or simply enjoying the cozy space, there was always something to keep everyone entertained. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a peaceful, fun-filled family retreat!

We loved it! The cottage is located in a private area on the lake, well-decorated, and has 4 levels making it very spacious. The hottub and sauna were awesome - perfect for our winter stay. We liked the couch in the downstairs living room as it was big and comfortable, and we appreciated the Roku for easy streaming. We had no issues driving to the cottage even after heavy snowfall - the private road and driveway were cleared. Walkways, stairs and decks were also cleared. Plenty of room outside for walks with a dog and other activities. We would highly recommend Siobhan’s cottage!

Wonderful place to spend some relaxed days in the beautiful Canadian nature. The cottage was fully equipped, neat, cozy and lovingly decorated. Exactly as shown on the pictures. Nothing was missed. Charlotte and Cindy replied within shortest time and provided all relevant information well in advance. We enjoyed the stay from the first minute and couldn't imagine a better place for our vacation. Hope to come back!

Stunning area, amazing location, and fantastic amenities. Very well thought out layout. Going from the hot tub to the sauna was so good after a long day of 4wheeling. Every question is answered in the guest book. When we didnhave a question Meghan took care of if asap. Thankyou Meghan and the owners for such a beautiful spot. Ben and the 4 wheeling gang.

Really enjoyed our weekend stay at this perfect little cottage. Magdalena is a great host and has an awesome property, don’t hesitate to book here!

awesome little private spot literally surrounded by woods many dragonfly which is fun to watch best part is that they eat their weight in mosquito everyday. think I saw 2-3 mosquito in 3 days . really quiet private peaceful place highly recommended Rachel was seemless to deal with

Great host, great chalet, great time. Good vibes and views. Kitchen is well equiped. Home feels meant to be lived in, not a cookie cutter air bnb providing the bare minimum. Theres a clear attention to detail. As a boardgamer, I saw this most of all in their inspired game selection that fit nicely with the aesthetic. I was surprised when they already had 3 games that i brought and a few more that i left at home. Just be prepared for black flies and misquitos in May if youre coming with a dog.

We stayed at the Phoenix house, took a long meander through the woods, borrowed the canoe for a paddle, decompressed in the sauna then relaxed on the sun-bed heated gently by the wood stove. All in all Rena and Co made us feel right at home and welcome to explore.

Chris was an excellent host and his property was fantastic. The cabin was spotless, well appointed, and modern. It’s clear that Chris values providing a comfortable stay for his guests, as no detail was left overlooked! The amenities were plentiful and very much enjoyed. Thank you Chris!

We enjoyed the cabin over a family weekend. It was cosy and thoughtfully designed. We liked walking the trails on the property and watching the bird feeder. Christine went out of her way to help us make the most of our visit, even during a very rainy first day.

The place was really nice and with a great view. We enjoyed kayaking and bonfires. Amber was amazing with all the instructions and quick responses.

What a wonderful escape! The water nearly surrounded the cottage and every direction you have a gorgeous view. Our days were spent on the lake in the kayak exploring the area. The water was so clear that you could see all the fish. Our dogs loved the area and the swimming. The area was private, and had everything we needed. We hope to return next summer!

We had the best time staying with Caroline and her family - they were so approachable, friendly and knowledgeable about their animals. Our little girl was obsessed with the cows and alpacas and we were lucky enough to have a guided tour and meet them all. The apartment was stunning and so comfortable we can't thank you enough!

I booked on behalf of my husband and father in law who were hoping to get away for a dishing weekend. They had no complaints. It was the perfect location for fishing, and the cottage was exactly what they were looking for. The hosts were very clear with instructions and easy to reach should any issues arise. We would definitely book again 😃

My husband and I had a great stay! Jim was so great to communicate with as well. Will be back for sure!

We couldn’t have asked for better hosts. Tom and Jeanne’s calm and friendly demeanor made us feel completely at home. Their property is a dream to explore—we would have moved right in if we could! The Airbnb is beautifully built; Tom is truly a master craftsman. The cabin is filled with stunning rustic décor, and you can’t help but dive into the documents they’ve left behind, which bring the place to life with its rich and beautiful history. We'll be sure to visit again soon! 100+STARS!

Perched on the banks of the Salmon River, this stunning property offers a glimpse into a bygone era, effortlessly blending 200-year-old charm with modern luxuries. As I sat by the river's edge, the soothing sounds of nature – crickets, birds, and the gentle rush of the water – enveloped me in tranquility. The warmth of a crackling fire and the comfort of a cozy setting made for a truly unforgettable retreat. This hidden gem is the perfect haven for those seeking a peaceful escape from the world.

Amazing place with the most amazing host!

Pretty view of the Rideau River. Quiet spot to relax, take a stroll around the neighborhood. The kitchen had everything that was needed to cook. Comfy bed with a great view.

This cottage was wonderful. Jen had everything you could possibly need available. It was clean and comfortable and the views were amazing. She was very responsive and great to deal with. My family and dogs had the best time at this little getaway despite the cold and wet weather .
