Cottage on Moon River w/ Fantastic Deck! (pet friendly)

Our family had a wonderful stay at this cottage. The check-in and check-out we're very easy and convenient. The kitchen had everything that we needed. The bedrooms and living area were clean and tidy. The water was very warm and the neighbors were quiet. My kids want to come back again next year!

Nice

We had a wonderful stay! The cottage was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. Check-in and check-out were seamless, making the whole experience stress-free. The location was perfect—just a short drive to both Bala and Port Carling, which made for some great day trips. We’d be happy to rent again in the future.

We enjoyed our stay in this property specially the deck, fire pit and spacious common areas. It would have been nice to have bathroom and beach towels. The place was clean and there were sufficient kitchen supplies, blankets and board games. We brought floaties to enjoy the water.

We had a lot of fun at the cottage with grown up kids and two dogs. The deck was amazing with its 3 levels and spectacular views (would have been nice to have kayaks or a canoe to enjoy the lake though). Location was great, super close to Bala. Cottage had a good vibe, could have been a bit cleaner…and cheaper. Great stay overall.

Perfect weather, great swimming, happy days

Time well spent

It was such a beautiful setting, cozy cottage to get away in. Had some septic issues,but owners were right on it & gave us a night's stay refund for the inconvenience. Thank you Cassie for being understanding and giving us lots of memories

This was a great cottage for friends or family. Great access to the lake, and local amenities. I would highly recommend.

This location gets a 10/10 for waterfront, nicely paved roads, close proximity to town of Bala and relatively short distance from GTA. Property manager Cassie lives next door and very professional and prompt in response rate. Some of group have allergies to dust, animal dander etc, and had zero issues with allergies! That means it was very clean, 10/10. Also, dogs allowed so great for families. The cottage itself is a bit old and outdated, small rooms and only has one washroom and no dishwasher but does have laundry. The cottage itself is a 7/10 and makes the current price of ~$600 a night difficult to justify. There are a lot of stairs to water which would not be ideal or possible for elderly, disabled, or obese. Some recommendations: 1. need dishwasher, 2. steps from dock to get into water from shore other than the ladder, 3. watercraft with waiver to sign if liability is an issue. In terms of value, a bit expensive but again with current supply and demand issues understandable, hopefully see a 30-40% decrease in coming years. Overall a great stay!
