    We loved our stay! We had a wonderful time. Their cottage is beautiful and very well maintained. The beach is wonderful with lots of space and soft sand for the kids to play. Our hosts were very kind and welcoming and offered support with anything that we needed. There was lots of activities available with space even for our kids to ride their bikes. Mike and Shirley were also very understanding about our dog, which we appreciated so much! Thank you both so much! We are looking forward to returning next year :)

    To celebrate our daughter's 18th birthday and high school graduation we decided to take a weeks vacation at a cottage in Minden. My mother in law from the UK joined us and we had a fantastic time. The cottage owners who live next door were so kind and even offered us a ride on their boat to check out the lake. The cottage was clean and equipped with everything we needed. The location is great and Minden is just a short ride away for any groceries etc..Weather was fantastic and our week was an amazing stay. Thank you Mike and Shirley for such a wonderful week!

    We couldn't have asked for a nicer holiday. The cottage was everything we needed. We absolutely loved the beach, watching the baby ducks and loons. I also loved that there were hardly any mosquitoes. The owners Mike and Shirley were extremely hospitable and we look forward to our next visit.

    Horseshoes bring good luck, just like this cottage stay on Horseshoe Lake in Minden. Our family had summered in the Haliburton Highlands since the mid-50s so, my sister and I knew and loved cottage country and decided to take a break for ourselves up there again. What a treat to land at Mike and Shirley's wonderful classic summer cottage in a perfect waterfront setting; exactly as they had described. Spacious, quiet, clean, well cared for - and they have thought of everything to outfit the place inside and out. We are cooks and the kitchen was great. The location is super for conveniences and/or exploration and adventures. Their waterfront is lovely - you have your choice of sandy beach or your own dock for swimming, kayaking or just planted in a Muskoka chair and listening to the loons. It's all good. Mike and Shirley and their sweet dog Luna are excellent hosts - warm, friendly and responsive to anything you need whether they are in or out of town. They do live next door about half the week, but have their own life at the lake so, never a bother. This cottage stay on Horseshoe is a winner all around. I will definitely book with Mike and Shirley again when I'm up for time up at the lake again.

    We had an excellent stay! The cottage was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the location was perfect for what we needed with a 1 year old. We won’t hesitate to rent here again in the future!

    My family and I had a wonderful week on Horseshoe Lake. Mike and Shirley were the ultimate hosts providing a cottage that lacked nothing - kitchen stocked with all the cooking items you would need; comfy beds; beach toys for my daughter and satellite/movies for those rainy days. The beach is large for sand play and offers easy access into the lake for toddlers. Lots of chairs and loungers provided. Water toys for use (kayaks, canoe and paddleboat) to get out on the water and explore the lake. The cottage is on shared property with the owners however Mike and Shirley keep to themselves - available if needed, but allow for privacy. Overall a great week making cottage memories.
