About this cottage rental
With only two cottages on the entire 300-acre property, Dudley House offers a rare sense of space, tranquility and privacy that is increasingly difficult to find.
Guests enjoy access to a beautiful 200-foot sandy beach shared exclusively between the two cottages, along with complimentary canoes, kayaks and life jackets for exploring Drag Lake.
This is the Canadian cottage experience many dream about. Less than three hours from Toronto, Dudley House feels a world away from everyday life.
Imagine waking to the call of loons echoing across the lake, sipping your morning coffee surrounded by towering pines, spending the afternoon swimming or paddling through the clear waters of Drag Lake, and ending the day around a fire under a sky filled with stars.
Here, life slows down.
Experience Cottage Life at Its Best
Wake up to tranquility
Begin your mornings in the screened-in sunroom or on the spacious deck, where sunlight filters through the trees and the only sounds are birdsong and the gentle movement of the lake.
Explore Drag Lake
Complimentary kayaks, canoes and life jackets are available for guests to explore one of Haliburton’s most beautiful lakes at their own pace.
Swim, paddle, discover hidden coves, or simply drift and take in the scenery.
Create unforgettable evenings
As the day winds down, gather around the wood-burning fireplace, roast marshmallows over the outdoor fire pit, and experience the magic of a true Canadian summer evening.
At Dudley House, some of the best moments are the simplest ones.
