Vacation rentals with a kayak in Lake Joseph

We had a wonderful stay! The place is absolutely beautiful—spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully designed. There was plenty of room for everyone to relax and feel comfortable, and the home had everything we needed throughout our stay. From the fully equipped kitchen to the cozy living spaces, everything was well-maintained and made us feel right at home. Would definitely recommend and hope to return again!

Fantastic place for big group of people and pets. Bethany is very friendly and responsive which made our check in and out very seamless. Amazing view of Muskoka Lake and we enjoyed the time in the water! Highly recommend this place for a relaxing vacation.

Our stay here was fantastic. The house is big with plenty of rooms for a big group. It was clean and orderly. There is a beautiful dock with a canoe, kayak and life jackets. Our host Fred was very kind and accommodating. I would recommend this to anyone looking a cottage getaway.

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.

We absolutely loved our stay at Maya & Greg’s cottage. We spent the May long weekend here and loved the peaceful environment and beautiful surroundings. The cottage was exactly as pictured, there was lots to do, and the hosts were very friendly. Highly recommend!

Great place and great host..they were quick to respond to queries..and the big yard on the side was a big plus which other properties generally do not have..will be booking again next year..

Beautiful, spacious and very comfortable. One of the most amazing views I've ever had at a cottage. So many windows that can open to let the beautiful sunshine and breeze in. Fans, AC and heat allowed for perfect temperature control.

I had a fantastic stay at Jude's place! The property is beautiful, with stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere — perfect for a relaxing getaway. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, with all the amenities you could need. There was also a great selection of water sports equipment available, which made it even more fun to enjoy the outdoors. The location is ideal for anyone looking to be close to nature. A special thanks to our host, Jude, who was incredibly accommodating and responsive throughout the stay. Highly recommend this place!

We really enjoyed our stay at Dock Cottage. It was modern elegance mixed with warm vintage touches. It had everything we needed to make our stay really comfortable and we loved the dock, hot tub and kayaking on the lake. It was quiet and peaceful and felt far away from everything yet we were an easy walk from Miss Nelle’s coffee shop and ice cream stand where we went each morning for a coffee (opens at 7am), Muskoka Brewing Company for a beer and a few other Baysville shops. The communication and instructions were really helpful and we received prompt replies if we had a question so it felt like we were really taken care of. We will definitely be back and recommend it to friends.

We had a wonderful time here on a short excursion out of the city! the cottage itself is magical with a beautiful view of the lake and a gorgeous back patio shaded by trees. Bryan and Pam were very helpful and had made sure to provide everything we needed and more

Lissa and Gerry were great hosts! The kitchen was very well stocked, the view is lovely and the place was easy to find. The welcome basket was very thoughtful. We enjoyed our stay and will book again next time we are in the area. Thank you Lissa and Gerry!

As first time users to AirBNB- So glad to have found this charming cottage to stay. It is just as the pictures indicated - pretty and serene and bigger than expected. Maureen and Mark have thought of everything to make our stay comfortable with all the amenities as indicated. Small things like a night light in the bathroom to a fully equipped kitchen shows that they have thought of everything. But to be welcomed with Maureen’s banana bread was a very special treat. It was delish and it shows they go the extra mile for their guests. The fishing was good with some nice big fish from the dock and boathouse as well. The lake is beautiful and peaceful. Maureen was quick to respond to any questions we had. And both Mark and Maureen were very accommodating, welcoming, making us feel at home and were a pleasure to meet. It truly is a beautiful place to stay for a nice get away. We will be back! It was nice meeting you both & so glad we were able to enjoy this little slice of paradise.

Jennifer's place was a perfect gathering point for our birthday family reunion. The accommodation was spotless, bright and warm and even had a little pack and play set up for the baby to have a nap. The grounds were stunning as was the view. Our only regret is that the weather did not cooperate so water activity was limited to a polar dip followed by a relaxing soak in the hot tub. A beautiful retreat that our family thinks should be an annual event.

Our group had a wonderful stay at the cottage! Cassidy was very communicative and the amenities were top notch - we enjoyed the lakefront view, kayak, sauna and hot tub. Fresh towels and laundry within the cottage made everything super convenient. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

We had a wonderful stay! The cottage is super cozy and cute. Jessica is also very responsive. Waking up to the lake everyday is unbeatable. The cottage is also a short walk/drive to the playground and nearby stores and restaurants. We highly recommend this place and look forward to coming back in the future!

Thanks for the great stay! We just stayed at this rental for the weekend and had a great time using the wood burning hot tub and sauna, as well as just hanging out by the dock during the day, and hanging out at the fire pit at night! We appreciated that the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we could possibly need for cooking, and that there was an extra propane tank for the barbeque! It was a little weird at first having the video cameras and noise detector pointed at the back deck entrance, especially having the light turned on every once in a while, made it seem like we were being surveilled - but we got used to it and forgot about it by the end of the trip. There was eight guys and it didn’t feel cramped in our living quarters! We would absolutely stay here again, Christina and Brandon were excellent hosts.

We had a great stay at Lisa's place. Our family spent a lot of time on the water exploring the lake in the available canoe and kayaks and really enjoyed the sauna and hot tub in the evenings. The outdoor space is setup perfectly for living outside on those sunny days and inside the cabin is cozy and has all the amenities you need if the weather isn't great.

Laura was great and very easy to deal with. She was very friendly and easy to contact. We loved our weekend away and enjoyed the kayaks. Such a peaceful little gem and would definitely go back

We had a great stay! Clean and fully equipt with everything we could have needed. It was so nice every room had a bathroom. The dishwasher and ice machine were really great perks! Dock and water were amazing! We would love to go back!

We booked the airbnb very last minute and Lixin reached out to us promptly and gave us clear instructions. The cottage is stunning , it actually looks better than the pictures. overall, we had a wonderful weekend over there.

Great rustic place to unwind and enjoy the outdoors. Reminded me of my childhood family cottage. It was private and had everything one needs in a semi offgrid location. Bill was prompt, accommodating and friendly. Bring more firewood than you'll think you'll need! Thanks again, Bill!

We had a great time here celebrating my son's 6th birthday and Father's Day. Not many places can boast a great little private beach plus a dock, and the fishing off the beach was great. We also saw lots of turtles, including some babies, which were adorable. The beds are super comfortable, as is the living room. We loved having use of the paddle boat to see more of the natural beauty of the lake. Great spot!

I highly recommend the Lake House in Dorset/Raven Shores. This cottage was perfectly situated and close to scenic attractions and many trails. The property was picturesque morning, noon, and night. The perfect spot with easy access to the lake. Their customer service and attention to detail is second to none, exceeding my expectations every time. The hosts were readily available and responded quickly. The cottage was warm and Cozy "just like home." It was equipped with everything a family would need and more. We would stay again.

This was our second visit to Taylor’s place on Otter Lake and it was just as beautiful as we remembered ☺️ such a quiet lake, the cutest cottage and private dock, and anything we needed in town was less than 15 min away. This is such a gem of a spot it’s become our annual anniversary destination 🥰❤️
