About this house rental

Our cozy lakeside house is a beloved family home designed and built by a loving couple. Every room is angled to maximize lake view and sunlight. If you’re looking to stay in a place with character, this is the perfect retreat location for you.

Immersed in nature, sunrises and sunsets on the lake, a quick paddle, a bbq - done. Head to nearby town centers or malls or some shopping, drive to the city for a day in the city - also done. Located in a safe and quiet neighbourhood that’s only 30min drive to downtown Toronto, we have the best of both worlds!
Our backyard is directly connected to the lake, available for skating, ice-fishing, snowboard-paragliding in winters, and all sorts on on-water fun in summers.

What's Nearby?
A plaza 15min walk away with NoFrills, Shoppers, Starbucks, Tim's, Philthy Philly's a gas station, and a few very nice restaurants & stores. Also many more stores and food places nearby on Young Street. There are a few trails and parks to explore in the area, as well as a park across the lake with a volleyball & basketball course, a skate park, and a promenade built on the lake! There is also a public beach, kayak club as well as a community center with drop-in classes and a pool.

Additional Amenities:
- Towels & basic toiletries (toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, shower gel)
- Full set of kitchen tools & basic condiments
- Canoe & paddle board (weather dependent)
- Firepit & grill by the water

We spent 6 days in late August 2022 and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Yes, the place is a bit older and could use some weeding and trimming but having that little slice of lake access makes all the difference in the world. Having lake views out of all the windows, a small 2nd floor deck to have coffee in the morning, the greenhouse to warm up and sit when it rained...was all so purely serene and lovely. We were all so thankful for being there together. The only things we needed, that weren't there were a few more blankets and a larger coffee pots (since we had 5 adults). We were able to take trips to Toronto for the FanExpo, to the Kensington area, Queen's St West, and Wilcox park (just around the corner) and had a great time trying all of the fabulous foods from around the world. Thank you for the wonderful stay. We hope to stay again sometime 😍

It was a great location, close to our family in King City. It was great to be on the lake in the summer and enjoy the canoe. Would stay again!
6 / 10Average·Aug 2022
The house was in a very convenient location and the neighborhood safe and upscale. The owner was nice and flexible with check-in times. The house entrance was dirty - lots of old spider webs. The grounds were overgrown and desperately need landscaping. The house was large - bedrooms and bathrooms on entrance level, common areas upstairs. The living room couches were lumpy and extremely uncomfortable - they need replacing. The kitchen microwave was missing the glass turnstile plate and rendered useless. The pots and pans were also old and grungy. The windows looking out to the lake could use a good cleaning and the overgrown vines covered up what would be a beautiful view. Down by the lake, the water was very shallow and mucky - accessible for canoeing but not great for swimming near the shore. This house could be a great rental property with a lot of TLC, updates and landscaping. If upgraded, we would consider going back as it was convenient to major highways for family visits. But not in its current condition.
