Vacation rentals with beach access in Manitoulin District

My and I stayed 3-nights at the Mutchmor Lofts - "The Cabin" during the 2nd week of September. The premise is spotless and well-appointed. The cabin is less than a stone-throw away from a beautiful & pristine sandy beach; and because it's the shoulder season, the beach is peaceful and that's exactly what my wife and I are looking for. We were given to understand by the locals that Providence Bay has the best sandy beach for swimming in Manitoulin Island and we agree. The area has an elevated boardwalk to protect the vegetation and the sand dunes; it's well-maintained. While you are taking a leisure stroll on the boardwalk, turn left for a short distance toward a small bridge where the Mindemoya River from Lake Mindenmoya drains into the mouth of bay and, fortunate for us, because September is the salmon spawning season, we came to witness an amazing scene of salmon gathering. We enjoyed our stay at Mutchmor, and we would like to thank Matthew for being just a great host.

Great spot to stay to explore Manitoulin. The location is very central so it's quick to drive to the top spots. Fire pit and beach access at the location is a great perk. Nano is a very friendly and responsive host, helped us with some small issues during our stay.

We loved this stay! Plenty of things to do within walking distance, great park and beach super close, and great restaurants!

Had a great couple of days stay at Sue's place. Our dog enjoyed the beach that is so close to this place (3-4 minutes walking). Bathroom was clean and a full kitchen is available for use. Massive massive TV! All in all, up to expectations in all ways. Thanks, Sue!

Ashley’s place was exactly as described and exceeded our expectations. It was the perfect retreat for a peaceful and relaxing vacation. We were traveling with both an infant and an elderly relative, and everyone felt completely at ease and comfortable throughout our stay. The home is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully equipped with all the modern amenities you could need. From the cozy interiors to the well-stocked kitchen, everything was designed to make guests feel right at home. We truly appreciated the quiet surroundings and the attention to detail in every corner of the house. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a serene and well-appointed getaway!

This is an amazing place if you want to take a break from everything and enjoy some beautiful, peaceful days. Mark and Victoria are fantastic hosts—thoughtful, welcoming, and well-organized. They even left some toys in the house, which made our son incredibly happy while playing. Although we were unlucky with the weather and couldn’t enjoy activities like canoeing or kayaking due to the wind, we still had a wonderful time. The house is very clean and cozy, and to be honest, it looks even better in person than in the pictures! Thank you, Victoria and Mark, for being such incredible hosts. We truly appreciated everything!

A lovely place to stay in Manitoulin. A spacious cottage with lots of room in the kitchen for cooking, a comfortable living room and a nice large TV. The patio was so inviting with comfy furniture and a beautiful view of the lake. We especially loved swimming in the lake! A sandy bottom and shallow, like a lot of the beaches on Lake Huron. There are amazing hikes close by with lots of options for places to eat and buy food. We would stay here again in our next visit to Manitoulin for sure.

Christopher’s place is absolutely beautiful. Overlooking Mindemoya Lake, it’s nestled among tall trees and a serene landscape. The entire family are great hosts—very warm and helpful. Aside from the regular hosting essentials, they went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Greg was especially kind in teaching us how to start a fire for the fire pit, even providing some of their own firewood and fire-starting equipment. They also shared some excellent local recommendations and Sandra gifted our group a lovely children’s book written by Christopher’s wife, which was a thoughtful touch for the kids. One of the unexpected highlights was how incredible the place was at night—perfect for stargazing and astral photography. With minimal light pollution and a clear view of the sky, captured some unforgettable night shots and spent hours just watching the stars. I highly recommend their place as the first one to check if you’re planning a trip to Manitoulin Island.

I felt at home from the time we entered the property. The cottage was very spacious and had a lot of natural light coming in. The sunroom/ living room was my favorite. You felt even when you were inside, you were still connected to the outside with all the windows. Outside it had a large deck, with a covered portion, and step down you could sunbath. The lake side was amazing, having crystal clear water and paddle boards, kayaks and a canoe. If that wasn’t enough, there was an amazing sauna that also had windows that allowed you to see the kids swimming in the lake. Bridal veil falls and the cup and saucer trails are really close by, which makes this property amazing. I will definitely book this property again.

Jacobs home is beautiful a very nice place to stay thank you for letting us stay

chi miigwech for the wonderful stay!! Everything was perfect! We really enjoyed being able to grill and look out over the lake. Sitting on the deck and watching the sunset was incredible. The beds were really comfy and the living room was spacious and great for visiting. Loved that the downstairs also had it's own space to relax.

Very enjoyable stay. Cottage has chic, rustic charm with modern amenities and decor. Gorgeous sunsets on the water. Private, large property. Enjoyed a kayak paddle on clear, refreshing Lake Manitou.
