We've rented several vacation properties on Peninsula Lake over the years. We love the 4-chain lake and its proximity to Huntsville and Algonquin Park, and were looking to relax on a dock and spend time Seadooing and roasting marshmallows. The Moffat's property did not disappoint! Warm and welcoming, the cottage is truly a cottage (you can almost hear the whispers of past cottagers... or is that the wind in the trees?). Well-appointed and clean, with plenty of sleeping accommodation and touches of whimsy all over the place, the cottage and its grounds were fun to explore. We loved the screened-in porch... such a peaceful spot to spend an evening! All in all, a wonderful week. We'll be back! Thanks to the Moffats for hosting!

This was our second time staying at this property, and we enjoyed ourselves as much this time as the last. The cabin is warm and inviting and just the perfect location to relax and unwind.
This property is for anyone who wants to really experience what it is like staying in an authentic cottage in rural Ontario. You would not believe that you are a mere minutes away from the town of Huntsville. Perfect place to unplug and separate yourselves from the rat race.
It truly is a blessing that the owners have opened this special place to everyone.

Our family of 4 had a beautiful stay at Steve's cottage. Steve's directions and communication were clear and timely. The cottage layout is ideal for hanging around, eating in the comfortable dining area and playing boardgames by the wood fireplace, which is what we were looking forward to for our stay. From the main room there are views in 3 directions. I can imagine it is beautiful here in all seasons! Because of the additional bedrooms and second bathroom, I think it would be very comfortable for more than 4 people as well. Our stay was everything we hoped for and I would not hesitate to recommend!

My partner and dog and I really enjoyed our stay in Steve's cottage. Great location on Peninsula Lake, easy access to Arrowhead and Algonquin parks and to Huntsville.
The cottage is equipped with 5 beds (3 queens, 2 singles) and an upstairs living room as well as downstairs rec room (where the two single beds are). Well appointed kitchen and 2 3 piece bathrooms.
Great value for our winter stay!!
Some things that would have been good to know prior to booking (but would not have changed our minds to stay):
1. As a cottage without laundry facilities, you must bring your own linens and towels. It doesn't say this explicitly, but given that towels are not included in the amenities, I luckily figured it out before we left. Again, absolutely makes sense, but I always appreciate more info than less.
2. Again, as a cottage, you must take your waste (garbage and recycling) to the dump before departing fully. The dump run has not been something I've encountered before while renting on this or a similar site, but a recollection from my childhood at a family cottage, and makes a great deal of sense.
3. The manual mentions the request to clean before leaving, and eludes to a full clean (washing floors, etc). Gave me a shock, but after clarification with the host is NOT required. He requested to leave it as it was found int the winter, which is absolutely reasonable, and we gave a quick vacuum and wipe of the surfaces to ensure it's ready for the next visitors.

Quaint cozy cottage with a real family feel. Nice cottage on a scenic lake. Great location close to Huntsville and also close to Algonquin Park. We stayed 3 nights during February and were really happy with the choice we made. Felt right at home and would definitely go back at some point in the future. Getting all the details from Steve was really easy and he responed to my questions within an hour of posting. Great experience!!

We had a nice stay at Steve's cottage. Ideally situated for winter activities, it is a short drive to Arrowhead and Algonquin Provincial Parks. Although it's close to Huntsville, the property feels remote. The bedrooms are roomy and the kitchen is very well-equipped. There is plenty of space for meals and hanging out. We also enjoyed having a fire in the woodstove. Steve was very quick to respond to messages during our stay. We would love to return another time.

We had an amazing time. The cottage was bigger then we expected. The surroundings were beautiful. Deer, stars at night, sunsets, a storm brewing over the lake etc. Coming from Belgium, this was exactly what we needed and wanted to experience.

Comfortable and clean cottage in a lovely setting with beautiful views of the lake. We thoroughly enjoyed a quiet week at this cottage - great for swimming, canoeing and campfires. It was a great getaway from the City. We highly recommend it.

We last rented this cottage many years ago and we were delighted that it was available this year. It was familiar but had some nice updates. The location is fantastic and there is plenty of room. My kids are especially pleased there is WiFi. There was a birdfeeder outside the kitchen window and that made washing dishes delightful. We all jumped in the lake, especially our dog, who was exhausted after the first full day. We are tired and happy. Thank you so much. The memories continue!

This place was an absolute treasure. The moment we pulled up the drive we were overwhelmed by the natural beauty of the cottage. The large mature trees, the natural rock formations welcoming us to the lake and the abundance of restful areas to put our feet up had us racing to slow down!
Inside the cottage we were greeted by rustic decor that just screamed long summer nights playing cards at the table after a day in the sun and rainy day board games infront of the fireplace.
The kitchen and BBQ area was perfect for feeding the crew and the bedrooms were clean and extremely comfortable. The bathrooms were modern and very well kept.
This place is the perfect spot to recharge your soul, and the location is just the right distance from all the local amenities. Cottage living feel without having to be isolated.
The hosts, Steve and Ana were friendly, warm and an absolute pleasure to deal with. It's is a gift that they have opened this place to the world.
