A perfect cottage for a large family. We were 11 adults aged 23 to 83. We were all able to find our own space if we wanted some privacy because the layout of the cottage. The shallow water made it easy to play water games and the fire pit was perfect for evening gatherings. I would highly recommend this cottage.

Brian’s cottage was absolutely perfect for myself and some friends to get away for the weekend. It’s exactly as listed, the view is breathtaking. It’s such a peaceful area with lots of activities to do. Brian always replied in a timely manner, and as a bonus we were pleasantly greeted by a bottle of wine and a lovely note. I would highly recommend staying at this cottage. You will not be disappointed!

We had a wonderful stay at Brian's cottage. It was in a perfect location with many family friendly activities for all ages including a playground, sandy beach, a paddle board, canoe and magic carpet mat! We all had a great time and look forward to coming again. Brian was a wonderful host and easy to communicate with. 10/10 would recommend!

Perfect for young children. This was our second stay and was just as great as our first.

Great cottage for my wife, myself and our 3 year old son. Place was clean and had plenty of kids toys. The outside property and shallow water around the dock gave us piece of mind for our little guy playing outside. Overall great trip and hope to be back again soon. Thanks for letting us stay here.

Spent 4 days at the cottage with friends. Brian, the host, was very easy to deal with. Great location for swimming, boating and fishing. Cottage was clean and well equipped. Plenty of room a for group of 8 adults. I would highly recommend this location to anyone that asked.

Excellent and relaxing

We loved the cottage. Very clean. Everything we needed. Spacious for our group of 8. Love to return.

brian was one of the most reliable and helpful host i’ve had so far, he helped us with everything we needed and made our stay one to remember, the cottage itself was very well kept and homey, it had everything we needed and nothing less, will definitely be returning and recommend it to anyone who’s looking for a family friendly place to kick back and relax and get away!

wonderful for children, great location. Rustic with all the modern amenities you need. Very comfortable and relaxing.

We enjoyed the cottage very much. We especially likes the fact that there was plenty of seating for all of us (6 adults). The dining room was large as well & could seat 8-10 people comfortably. The view of Lake Rosseau is spectacular. We enjoyed the outside as much as the inside. Again, lots of places to sit & relax & enjoy the view.

House and location are amazing, We had a wonderful time and would love to return

Ideal for all ages. The shallow water in the large sandy bay is great for small children and for adults alike. The property provides all the amenities required for a fabulous holiday including many water "toys" (including Hobie Cat), shade with the umbrellas on the deck, the playground set with slide and swings, a well stocked kitchen with all the gadgets.Cottage experience highlights included "dock time" (on the dock and in the water) and family meals on the deck and in the Muskoka room. Brian is a gracious and helpful host.

Great location, beautiful house, nice people - we couldn't wish for more! We really enjoyed our stay! Thank you for sharing your unique cottage!

Beautiful lake and cottage. The lake front cottage is beautifully situated with breath taking views in a quiet neighbourhood. The cottage has an open and an enclosed deck and a dock on the lake. There are plenty of outdoor equipment, 2 large BBQs, plenty of lounge chairs with large umbrellas on the dock with non-motorized activities. There are dining tables and chairs on the open and enclosed decks. The owner, Brian, has thought of everything to provide an enjoyable family stay. Inside the cottage was like the home away from home with all you need and want with games and an attic well equipped for kids stay. Cottage is located close by to stores, restaurants and trails. Also, don’t miss the sun set view from the Huckleberry Rock Lookout, which is less than half hour drive away. Give time to climb the rock as the climb is steep but it is worth the climb.

We didn’t want to leave. Brian is a great host and very accommodating. Incredible nature around. Beautiful clean house with everything you need. Lake Rosseau is beautiful. We end up swimming on hot days. In case you forgot to bring anything there are stores around within a short drive. Definitely would love to come back

Another fantastic winter vacation on Lake Rosseau! I stayed at Brian's cottage in February of 2018 and enjoyed it so much that I returned with the entire family this year. Brian is a consummate host, and all the wonderful amenities the property has to offer are still in place with two notable improvements: Hi speed wifi capable of streaming Netflix is now included, along with a backup generator should the power ever go out. Of course the kids love having wifi, but if you really want to give them a treat they might remember for a lifetime, wake them up before sunrise on clear crisp winter morning. Tell them to leave their iPhones in the bedroom and take them to the family room where they can sit in the large recliners facing the lake. Watch together as the first rays of sunshine blanket the pristine white surface with a warm orange glow. The blue jays will make an appearance, as will a feisty little squirrel - bigger than a chipmunk but smaller than a gray or black squirrel. Somehow they can dart around the top of the snow leaving scarcely a trace. The deer will make their presence known too as this is their home year round. Of course Muskoka is wonderful in the summertime, but don't dismiss the magical gifts that winter brings. Embrace the cold with warm winter boots, warm gloves and snow pants, knowing that in a few months spring and summer will return. There is plenty of modern entertainment to be had at Brian's cottage, but take a moment to remind the younger family members about the history of the area. Show them the old fashioned snowshoes on the wall - no, those aren't tennis racquets, those went on your feet. Research the building itself. It is actually over 100 years old. Look together at the historic pictures placed around the cottage - the beautiful old church and the old wooden boats. Even the door stops are coils of hemp rope, a nod to the mariners of old. On our last morning here, sipping my coffee, watching the sun gradually cross the beautiful frozen lake, it occurred to me what makes this place so special: it is the perfect marriage of the old with the new. Thank you Brian for sharing your beautiful property, allowing my family to experience another adventure of a lifetime.

The property is scenically located. It is secluded yet close to amenities. The cottage was decorated tastefully with unique and creative Christmas decorations. The living room was large with comfy couches, throws and a beautiful fire place to keep cozy. It opened out to a lovely deck. The dinning room was large and was able to handle our extended family. The kitchen had everything you needed and wanted, including a waffle maker, so don’t forget to take flour and maple syrup. The loft was exceptional with a large TV with Netflix, perfect to house the kids. The bedrooms were made ready to sleep with clean and fresh linen. We had a wonderful Christmas stay. Most of all, Brian was available to reach at all times. We loved the cottage so much we booked it over the summer.

Great property and space for everyone to enjoy. Would book again! We all enjoyed our time.

Clean, spacious, perfectly situated. Wildlife in abundance, massive dock, water toys to please adults and children of all ages. Comfortable and ample chairs for lounging or dining inside or outside. Fire pit was great! Huge shallow bay that was perfect for the kids. All in all I would recommend this property to all, no questions.

This modernized place was scrupulously maintained, and comfortable for our family. We enjoyed the view, safe harbor and beach, updated bathrooms, kitchen and property. The comfort of this air conditioned home, its modern conveniences including; wifi, standby generator, awesome dock, water system, comfortable beds, modern laundry, and responsive host, made for an incredible vacation. Our family is filled with good memories, and great stories, we will enjoy for our lifetimes. The grandchildren loved the outdoors and occasional screen time. The adults were roasting marshmallows until midnight or played cards in the screened porch. Our neighbors were friendly and shared privacy and trust. An incredible find for anyone looking to make great family memories.

I stayed here with a group of friends including 2 toddlers. This beautiful home was situated on a quiet beautiful lake front property. It had everything we needed including all the indoor and outdoor plates/utensils for our group, and indoor activities to do on our rainy weekend. We were most impressed with how child friendly the place was with tons of toys for our toddlers, baby gates, bed rails and a crib. Brian was very responsive and easy to communicate with. We will all definitely want to come back here again!

A beautiful cottage in a secluded spot on the lake. Perfect for a peaceful time with friends and family. So many spots for coming together with your group or to find your own little privacy. We've loved both of our stays here.

A large group of us came up here to celebrate a friend's wedding. The house was perfect and exactly what we were looking for. Brian was available to answer any questions we had.

The cottage was so relaxing and is on an amazing property. Whether you want to lounge by the dock by day or have a cozy fire by the pit at night, it was fantastic. Includes everything you would need for a nice weekend away :)

We booked the property for a 60th birthday party which included a group with small children. The house and the property are lovely and very child friendly. It was a pleasure dealing with the owner. Highly recommended.
