Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Lake of Bays

One of the most incredible stays I’ve ever experienced in Ontario. This cottage is even better in person; beautifully decorated, impeccably clean and absolutely stunning and serene surroundings. Retreat 82 has all the amenities you could ask for and more, and our dog loved every minute of our stay too. We can’t wait to come back!

The house was very clean, bright and cozy with all the amenities necessary for a great stay. Short distance to all the stores and restaurants, as well as two Provincial Parks. Would highly recommend this place to those visiting/exploring Huntsville.

The rental place is clean and well organized. Nina is quick to respond. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place in the area.

The place was clean, cozy, and it was exactly like the photos. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed to cook. The check-in and check-out and garbage disposal process was very clear and detailed, as the host provided an easy to follow instruction. We'll definitely come back!

We rented Lyle’s place for 2 months while working on a contract in the Huntsville area. Was a great long term place to stay. Had everything we needed plus lots more. Lyle was always extremely responsive with messages and seemed happy to accommodate our stay.

We had a lovely and relaxing stay at Sawdust City Haus. Everything was clean and tidy, the decor was cute and cozy, and the house was well-stocked with everything that we needed. (We especially appreciated the fully-equipped kitchen and the selection of board games!) The instruction booklet with information about the house as well as local attractions was extremely helpful. We loved soaking in the hot tub and getting up close and personal with the neighbourhood deer! Oh, and the beds are super comfortable too. Devon was a great host; always responsive and helpful. Thank you for everything!

We had a wonderful stay! Cottage was clean upon arrival with easy access. There were lots of activities to keep busy both indoor and outdoors. Lots of space to enjoy within the cottage as well. We especially enjoyed the hot tub during a cooler day!

It’s a beautiful place to relax. Very clean and well organized. Unfortunately nothing to do around. Even park with falls was closed at the time. But we enjoyed our stay and highly recommend David as a host.

Sebastian’s place was absolutely wonderful, my husband and I came for our one year anniversary with no set plans about what we wanted to do in the area. The place was gorgeous, perfect little home away from home, in the mornings we drank our coffees on the front deck watching the butterflies in the garden, and in the evenings the hot tub barn made for a really beautiful evening hangout. Sebastian included a great bulletin board of things to do in the area with a fun ranking system so during the day my husband and I made a little road trip out of the most recommended attractions. I highly recommend the Petroglyph provincial park - it genuinely took our breath away. Thank you Sebastian for such a wonderful stay!

Words can hardly capture the magic of Cathy’s BnB in Wasaga. From the moment we pulled into the driveway, we knew we were about to experience something special. This isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a destination in itself, a beautifully curated space that feels like stepping into the pages of an artist’s journal. The first thing that struck us was the atmosphere — peaceful, welcoming, and infused with personality. Every inch of the property is meticulously thought out and bursting with creativity. You can feel Cathy’s heart in every detail. It’s clear that this isn’t just a business for her — it’s a lifelong passion project rooted in artistry and hospitality. Cathy’s background in the arts and event world shines through in the most delightful ways. If you’re looking for something more than just a rental, if you want to stay somewhere that feeds your soul as much as it rests your body, Cathy’s BnB is it. Thank you so much for our stay!

Beyond grateful for Lesley & Ian. Absolutely loved this piece of Paradise. You were both so very friendly & helpful. The place was Peaceful & had such a beautiful view from any room. We truly look forward to staying here again in the near future. Thank you once again for everything

Derek and Doreen were extremely friendly, responsive, and hospitable, everything in the suite and in the backyard was as shown, if not better. They even gave us a gift as we had mentioned our wedding day was the day prior, couldn’t recommend them and this place enough, we would book again in a heart beat, thanks for everything Derek and Doreen!

Such a beautifully decorated and well-appointed space for our last minute “mini-moon!” The apartment was spotless and had absolutely everything we needed, and then some. The thoughtful touches (robes, slippers, treats) were much appreciated. We loved the hot tub with the river view. Robert and Taurean were friendly and very responsive hosts! We would return in a heartbeat.

Will definitely be back. Very close to town, beautiful views, lots to do, super relaxing. The home is absolutely stunning and well kept.

Highly recommend. The dock and the area by the lake are beautiful. And you get the entire view from the unit as well.

Mary Anne and Garry were absolutely wonderful hosts. They are truly wonderful people in general- friendly, warm and welcoming. Their AirBnB exceeded expectations! It was pristinely clean and also had little details and amenities that added to the comfort of our stay (like Kleenex boxes in every room, ice was ready-made in the freezer, coffee and tea, etc). It really did have the comforts of home, which is rare these days! The Breakfasts they made were lovely and delicious. Mary Anne and Garry put so much thought into everything and that made a big difference to our stay. We look forward to returning to stay again! Thank you for making us feel at home.

Just what my dog and I needed for a last minute get away. Laura’s cottage was super cute and cozy. The ultimate relax on the back deck! It was perfect. Easy to find, very private too. Laura was extremely responsive and check-in was a breeze. Really hope to go back to this special place!

Very nice location. Cottage was extremely well stocked. Honey the dog was very friendly with the kids. Fought lake flies but didnt let them ruin our fun. Craig and Liz were very graceful and accommodating.

Driving up to the cabin my jaw was dropped by how luvly this property was. Very private, and well kept grounds. I didn't know there was a babbling brook right near the cabin, so that was a pleasant surprise I wasn't expecting. Luved falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the brook and the many birds singing. Inside the cabin was clean and well stocked with all the kitchen items I needed. Andrew was definitely a super host, thoughtful and kind. He is amid building a second cabin nearing completion. I can't wait to return and spend more time exploring the vast acrage. I highly recommend Andrew's cabins, I promise you won't be disappointed.

This was the best way to experience the beauty of Ontario. The rusty cabin is clean and warm, with many old records and fascinating books when it gets dark, and well maintained kayaks for daytime. Bill is an amazing guy, holding some of the history and knowledge of the place in his heart and he is so willing to share it with the others. Book this place to get a sweet taste of Algonquin and Little Hawk lake.

I had an amazing experience with Michelle! She accommodated a few date changes due to other personal commitments without hesitation. She was very responsive and checked in with me to ensure we were doing well. My family and I really enjoyed the cozy cabin - absolutely perfect for our weekend getaway. The cabin was clean and had literally everything! We LOVE that it was pet friendly, my fur babies absolutely enjoyed it and loved the outdoors. Would definitely book again.

Our family of three spent two nights at Leah and Kevin’s cabin. The property is beautiful, private and peaceful; surrounded by forest. The cabin itself was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The wood burning stove guarantees a cozy stay. The cabin is perfectly located, everything within a short distance drive. Looking forward to coming back in the future!

Our stay at Otter Lake was relaxing and enjoyable. Photos don't do this cottage justice, it was extremely spacious for us (4 adults and 1 pet). We spent most of our time swimming in the lake, bbqing, sitting on the dock or around the fire pit. The lake is soooo peaceful and when we arrived we were greeted by a loon 🥹. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat, thank you for your hospitality, Taylor!

Our stay was great. Did some nice hikes. House was as described. Very clean. James was very helpful.
