There was something for everyone, dock for fishing, kayaks for excursions along a tranquil river, games room and not to forget..hot tub and sauna! The neighbours were wonderful, restaurants had great food and friendly service. If you can go to Kawartha dairy in Bobcaygeon for the amazing ice cream.

The cottage was beautiful and looked exactly like the photos if not even better in person. The river was so fun to float down and swim in, and my group and I quite enjoyed our time in the hot tub as well. Both the owner and the property manager were very accommodating and understanding, and both of them were incredibly easy to get in contact with if we needed anything, and very helpful with any questions we had. The cottage was clean and easily accessible with just a few turns from the main road. The area was beautiful too with the small town near by offering some adorable shops and great ice cream. There were lots of fun things to do and see which made for the perfect summer cottage getaway for my friends and I. Would definitely recommend staying here any day.

The property was everything as advertised and more! There was plenty of room for our family togetherness and yet you could have private space when wanted. Our family group included 12 people. The property owner and the property manager are great to work with! We would definitely rent this property again.

Had a wonderful stay at the Riverfront Retreat with several friends! From the moment we booked, the owner was communicative and accommodating, and the property manager was both friendly and eager to share information about the house and general area. General agreement among the group is that the photos did not do the house justice. It is just literal steps from the river, and many of us enjoyed sitting on the deck or the dock enjoying the weather. We got much use out of the sauna, hot tub, and kayaks. The dining room doubled as a great space to play a few games as the sun went down. We were lucky enough with weather to not need to make much use of the basement area, but it was a great spot to watch a movie as a group as well as spending a few minutes at the pool table. Linens and basic soaps being provided was a huge perk for my group, as many of us were coming from a great distance. This saved us from schlepping a lot of extra things with us, as we had limited car space. Overall, if I am looking to stay somewhere in this area again, I will be keeping this cottage in mind! Many thanks to hosts Mike, Jacqueline, and Dave for making such a nice week possible!

This cottage was excellent. We loved the amenities, and the interior was super modern and well maintained. There was absolutely nothing lacking from the features, or the location, and in the 4 days we were there we couldn’t even get through all the activities this place had to offer. The owner and manager were super responsive and anything we needed help with was taken care of in minutes.
