The perfect Muskoka Experience for Three Generational Families

Lovely in every way

We rented JB's cottage as our daughter was getting married at The Kee to Bala so we needed a place for the wedding party to get ready for the big day. It was great space & so comfortable after the big day to come back to for sleep. Everything was perfect & we highly recommend renting this amazing place.

The best compliment that I can share about this property is that the photos do not give enough credit to how terrific it is. The property itself is on a little corner of land that had water on 2 sides. The dock area is perfect for hanging out for hours, playing in the water, and launching the provided canoe and kayaks. The main bedroom in the boathouse has a direct on-the-water view. The separate bunkie is a private retreat. The main house’s kitchen and family room was an ideal gathering place for our multi-generational family. Finally, J.B., the host, was 110% responsive and helpful. We were very happy for our 2 week visit.

Three generations of our family stayed here for a week in late June (the weather was fantastic), and were extremely satisfied. The cabin, which is an understatement, it's really a three structure compound, is situated on a rocky point off Acton Island. There's an abundance of dock space for sunny from early morning to later afternoon, and lounging while the kids play in the lake. It's equipped with two kayaks and a canoe so there's plenty of opportunity to get out and enjoy the nearby coves. The main house is large and has an open floor plan that's perfect for family gatherings. Truly a chef's kitchen, we cooked 6 of the 7 nights. Everything else was as described or better. Can't beat the location, basically between Bala and Port Carling. Would recommend 10/10 times!

Beautiful home and perfect location for our family reunion. Gorgeous waterfront made it unnecessary to spend our days anywhere else. Truly unforgettable!

The cottage is really beautiful with plenty amenities. John is an amazing host making you experience your stay as it was your own home. Thanks for the amazing experience!

Perfectly situated on Acton Island, the location offers everything you could want - privacy, sunlit dock, great swimming and water activities. The cottage is bright and spacious with a terrific kitchen, dining area and family room. Our 2 week stay was a mix of family and friends. The boathouse bedrooms were perfect for the teenagers and the cottage bedrooms and bunkie offered comfort and flexibility. Nearby Bala and Port Carling made shopping and outings easy. And we rented a boat from Beaumaris Marina to get the full Muskoka cottaging experience. Owner JB was very responsive and helpful. Wonderful spot. We hope to be back again soon.

great

Amazing cottage. Great location, right on the water. I’d go back here again when I make the trip back to Muskoka!

Our extended family had a fabulous vacation at this beautiful property on Acton Island. There were lots of options for comfortable sleeping arrangements: 4 bedrooms in the main house, 2 bedrooms in the boathouse and of course the bunkie with a DVD player for rainy days (see ya later kids)! The large open concept kitchen/living area easily accommodated all 12 of us. There are so many places to relax; the wide wrap around deck, the large screened-in Gazebo, the sunny swimming dock or the secluded bunkie deck. No matter where you go there is one thing you can't escape...a view of the lake! Endless swimming in beautiful deep water and the kids jumping into the lake from the rope swing were highlights for us. Bala is just a short boat or car ride away for a change of scene and a delicious treat from Don's Bakery! The property owners are kind, accessible and accommodating. The only thing that was missing was a hammock! (Hint hint). We felt lucky to be able to stay here and would love to go back next summer!
