Family-friendly vacation rentals in Bracebridge

I wanted to say thank you for letting us enjoy our vacation in your cottage. Your cottage was the perfect retreat from our everyday lives. We hope we will be able to visit again.

Joanne has been a great host from booking all the way to check out. She has communicated with us all throughout the stay. She was kind enough to give us a flexible check in and check out time. The place was as described on the listing and instructions were quite clear as to what’s what. My family and friends had a wonderful time.

We had such a fantastic stay at Dave and Bonnie's place! We decided to make a trip up to lakefield and wanted to get away and it was perfect. It's right beside the river if you want to ride the trail but its also perfect if you want to just stay in. The hot tub and sauna is such a great combination to enjoy and enough amenities indoors that you can cook a nice meal and enjoy a movie. The bed was perfectly soft and the washroom was great. They were very responsive and we can't wait to go back. If you're taking a trip to Lakefield, definitely stop looking and book this!

A Perfect Getaway at a Beautiful Water View Cottage! Our group of girlfriends recently had the pleasure of staying at a lovely Airbnb cottage in Norland, and I can't recommend it enough! The location was great, with great views of the water that made every moment feel special. The cottage itself was very nice, providing a cozy and inviting atmosphere. It was well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and the hosts were attentive. We were disappointed that we couldn't fully enjoy the wonderful deck due to the weather. However, the hot tub was a fantastic highlight of our stay, and we made the most of it! Overall, our stay was great, and look forward to returning. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with beautiful scenery, this is the place to be!

Had a wonderful stay at this beautiful Muskoka cabin. Great views of the lake and was really fun to go out on the canoe and kayaks. The cabin was cozy and nice with a great kitchen and awsome living room for hanging out and relaxing. Host was extremely responsive and nice. She provided helpful clear instructions and information. Would love to go back.

My fiancee and I wanted a place where we could experience winter with our 14 month old son. This cottage was perfect. It's on a beautiful, quiet, large piece of property. There was so much snow on the ground but we were still able to enjoy ourselves! There was a massive snow storm coming so unfortunately we had to end our visit early. The inside of the cottage is set up beautifully and has everything you should need. Our son is just learning to walk and had a blast zooming around the main floor. Even though we had to leave early we still enjoyed our stay and would love to check it out again. Luke, Kelce, Grady

We had a wonderful two-night stay at Kathy’s Cottage. The place is beautifully nestled in nature, offering a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of urban life. The cottage is well-maintained and exudes a charming, antique feel that adds to its cozy ambiance. Kathy was incredibly supportive and easy to communicate with, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Thank you, Kathy, for helping make our family trip such a memorable experience. We would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful and scenic getaway.

Stayed here for my brothers bachelor party. It was a fantastic stay. Patricia always responsive when I messaged her. The house was beautiful and so was the surrounding area. We got to take a nice hike through the bush from directly on the property. The hot tub and sauna were a very pleasant addition. I would definitely return with a group in the future again.

I enjoyed a peaceful 2 weeks at this beautiful Airbnb! The setting is surreal surrounded by nature and a river! I had everything I needed and I enjoyed a few nights with a cozy fire in the wood stove. The bed and couches were very comfortable. The No Frills in Shelburne was a great grocery store nearby. Wendy was always very responsive and helpful. As clearly noted in the description, there is no cell service but not a big deal as there is wifi. I hope to be back again one day! A true gem!

Beautiful place! Can’t wait to return. The fishing is fantastic here! Thank you so much Stephanie you are a fantastic host !!!

Very beautiful place and surroundings. Host was very helpful with giving us advice and answering any questions we had

Enjoyed the great space together with my friends. Lots of fun things to do at this beautiful cottage, would recommend.

This place was a great size for our group of 10 and had a very spacious and comfortable main room where we could all gather to eat, play games and relax. The sauna is a nice feature as well. The kitchen was very well equipped. Kersti and her co-hosts were very responsive, accomodating and helpful.

Our recent stay at Hollow River near Algonquin Park was everything we hoped for—and more. Nestled in a quiet setting along a peaceful river, this retreat offered the perfect balance of rustic Muskoka charm and modern amenities. The cabin is spacious and well-designed, with plenty of room to gather as a group, around the large dining table, in the cozy living area, or outdoors by the fire. At the same time, there are quiet nooks where you can retreat. It’s clear the hosts have gone out of their way to create a space that’s both comfortable and in harmony with nature. We especially loved the outdoor sauna after a day of hiking. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully equipped. The Wi-Fi worked well too, but honestly, we were happy to unplug and enjoy the quiet.

Alan and Rosalie’s place was exactly as described. Such a beautiful private spot. Rosalie greeted us when we arrived and she was very kind and helpful. We wanted for nothing! Their cottage literally has everything! I actually over packed lol I’m not used to that. We had a mix of weather during our stay and it was great to have fans, heaters and a fireplace when we needed. The private lake is so peaceful and beautiful. We felt right at home. Alan and Rosalie were very accommodating and I would not hesitate to go back!

Such a gorgeous property and stunning views! The main living area had views from both south and north views of the lake since it is on a point. Stocked with everything we needed. Was a lovely weekend to honour my late uncle with my family. Balsam lake was his favourite spot. We went up the weekend after the huge ice storm so the place was running on a generator, which actually stopped working for a bit but the owners were on top of it as soon as they heard. They were very helpful. Would definitely stay there again in nicer weather! 🙌🙌

We loved our stay at Mark and Betty's chalet. The place was quiet and clean. There was plenty of space for our two families, a beautiful deck space for enjoying a morning coffee, an indoor pool for the kids to use at the nearby resort (at a reasonable cost and only a 5 minute walk from the chalet) and plenty of hiking trails nearby. The hosts were responsive and offered helpful suggestions for things to do in the area. We especially enjoyed Mark and Betty's art collection, the many klompen (for the Dutch in us!) and the giant pileated woodpecker that would visit the birdfeed in the morning.

Margaret seemed very nice, she left croissants in the kitchen for us to have in the morning. Overall a very cozy spot to stay and we had no issues. One thing I noticed is that there's an adjoining door that connects from her side of the building to ours and I'm not sure if it locks, maybe it does but I didn't see a lock option on my side. Anyway it still felt private and we definitely got what we paid for.

Janna’s cabin is perfect for a little getaway! The place was very homey and quiet! Beautiful view! I would love to come back in the summer! Would stay here again! :)

Idyllic gem on Georgian bay. Perfect for a small family getaway by the lake. The resort pool is a big plus for the kids. Beautiful surroundings and stunning sunsets. Jefferson is a great host. Very friendly and responsive. He kindly accommodated our request.

wonderful hosts who will help to solve any question in a short time, beautiful and clean accommodation that corresponds to the photo, we will be happy to return here again

Definitely will be booking again. Very relaxing!

Immaculately clean, spacious, and Beautiful condo. It had everything we need and a few steps to the marina. Easy instructions to get inside and parked. I highly recommend!

The chalet is amazing! Quiet, clean and well equiped. Perfect for family getaway. We definitely enjoyed our stay and would love to come back. Susanne and James are fantastic host. They are responsive, accomodating and flexible. 🌟
