Waterfront & Pvt Beach 120’Shoreline: SHALLOW/Sandy: Perfect for Little Kids!

We had a cozy Thanksgiving stay. The property was spacious and perfect for adults to play outside. We enjoyed the variety of water fowl that used the water in front of the cottage. Inside, the rooms were comfortable for togetherness and quiet time. We really appreciated having Sportsnet to watch the Blue Jays.

Beautiful cottage and amazing location with lots of activities for little ones. Communication of check in and check out were very smooth as well.

Great time on the water! We returned to Three Ducks cottage for another summer getaway. We arrived to find a spotless cottage and welcome bottles (wine/champagne). Our favourite things ... space and the shallow sandy water entry! Lots of space inside and out. Living/Dining area allowed lots of room for family bbqs. Large table is great for game nights. We have extended family in the area. The outside deck offers lots of space to relax either in the sun or shade. The neighbourhood is quiet and friendly. The large flat lakeside yard allows for outdoor game fun. The beach offers lots of sandy shallow water for lounging in with chairs (sun and shade) and young swimmers to splash about. For those who like to venture out deeper, you can enjoy a stroll out to deeper water. If you are lucky, you will have a windy day to jump in waves. Lots of paddle toys to enjoy as well. The cooks loved the well-kept BBQ with a working built-in ignition still working at end of summer season (Aug/Sep). For rainy days, there is Rogers Fire TV/WIFI. We did not use the firepit by the water this year due to the area fire ban. Having a dishwasher is great and makes cleanup after cottage meals easy. Listening to the waves each night to drift off to sleep is so relaxing. Always enjoy the call of the loons in the mornings or late evenings. If you are lucky, the heron, aka the pterodactyl, will be on the beach each morning. Cottage is exactly as pictured. Host Rachel is very responsive to all inquiries.

We had a fantastic time at the cottage. Rachel right from the start made the whole process an easy transition. The cottage was clean, the beds were comfortable. It was a home away from home. Rachel approved our 3 mini dachshunds for the stay, which was fabulous. They had an amazing time outside, the lake was perfect for them, shallow so they could play and run in the water. In the evening we were able to all cozy up outside near the fire. Thank you Rachel! See you next summer.

Very nice week on Lake Simcoe. Cottage was clean, beds comfortable, kitchen well stocked, warm sandy beach. Host was very accommodating and responsive.

We had an absolutely wonderful time at this cottage! The location offers stunning views that took our breath away every morning. The shallow water in the nearby area was perfect for our kids, allowing them to play safely and enjoy the water without any worries. The cottage itself was cozy and well-equipped, making our stay comfortable. The host was responsive and provided all the necessary information for a seamless check-in process. Overall, this was a fantastic getaway for our family, and we can't wait to return! Highly recommend!

Beautiful spot with everything you need right there. Kitchen well appointed, air conditioning or heat available. Comfortable beds. Sandy access to water that stays shallow a long time for little ones and dogs to play.

This was the perfect place for our surprise birthday! The cottage was perfect - from the comfortable beds to the well equiped kitchen and a bbq that gives a great sear on the steaks (Leska's is just 10 minutes away and has great steaks)! Sandy beach walkout and perfect firepit location for the evening. Rachel's communication was excellent and we will definitely be back!

We just returned from a wonderful two-night, three-day stay and couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. The communication with the property manager was top-notch—responsive, thoughtful, and incredibly helpful in working through a few small details before and during our stay.The home itself sits right on the lake, with a lovely grassy lawn that offers the perfect transition from house to water. It had a warm, cozy cabin vibe, and the beds (including the kids’ bunk beds) were super comfortable. Our kids, who are six, absolutely loved every minute—especially the fact that they could walk out more than 300 yards into the shallow lake without feeling unsafe. It gave them a great sense of independence, and gave my wife and me something just as precious: peace of mind.There were boats available for us to use, and the team even brought over toys for the kids—just one of many thoughtful touches that made our stay feel special. Honestly, I think the listing undersells how perfect this place is for families with young kids. We had a wonderful time and are already looking forward to our next visit.

The cottage and property is a wonderful spot for relaxing and having outdoor fun with family and friends. The property is grassy and flat perfect for playing. The waterfront is sandy and shallow. We enjoyed swimming and paddleboarding everday as well as bonfires and barbeques. All amenities are provided. We had a great time and will return. Communication with the host was easy and prompt.

The cottage was clean and well maintained. We enjoyed our time very much and would like to plan another trip in the future. The view of Lake Simcoe is wonderful. The beach area is awesome.

Enjoyed the cottage for a full two weeks. The water entry has sand bottom and shallow. Great for young and older! Large flat lakeside lawn great for outdoor games. The large deck was enjoyed all times of the day and night. Fire pit right by the lake is perfect for star gazing. Inside there is a large dining table great for dinners and game nights. The furniture has been updated since last year. Cottage well equipped with TV and internet if you have to stay connected to technology. Kitchen has all you need in a cottage fashion. The dishwasher is greatly appreciated so cottage time is not spent doing dishes. Bathroom is very modern with walk in shower. For extended stays there is laundry. Host was great, checking in by text at check in to welcome us and during stay to make sure everything was going well. Looking forward to returning next summer!

The cottage is located on a beautiful shallow lake! Our dog had the most amazing time!! We used the kayak and stand up board that was included on the property. There’s also a canoe available. The view is breathtaking! The cottage is very clean and comfortable ! We enjoyed our breakfasts on the huge deck in the mornings and dinners in the evenings too!! We also enjoyed our long walks with our dog near the cottage. We had a great time and we’d love to stay here again!

This is our second year at this cottage. Rachel is a responsive and kind host who is always reachable if needed. Check in is a breeze and this spot has everything a family of four could need. The water is shallow, clear and warm and the sound of the lake can be heard from your armchair in the living room as you sip your morning coffee and read a good book. The water is great for kids to play and dive for treasures. At night, there is a great view of the stars and Milky Way. We are so relaxed each time we visit and there is no doubt we plan to return. We also have a dog and while we made sure to be respectful of the space it is set up so the dog could be there comfortably also. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!!

My wife and I recently stayed at this property after a last minute rental and found it to be a comfortable location for us and our dog - who loved the shallow sandy bottomed lake and spent hours splashing around. The property was on a quiet dead end street that was nice for walks and the home had all that we needed, including, good wifi (which was beneficial for remote work). The A/C unit worked well and provided for relief from the warm weather. While there are other properties nearby (not too close) the unit provided good privacy and during much of our stay the neighboring properties were unoccupied. The backyard of the property was a bit wet due to strong rains the week before our rental but that didn't impact our use of the property as we wanted. One thing we did notice was that the electrical outlets were a bit dated and some did not work - which made it challenging to charge electronics and use bedside lamps. Other than that minor inconvenience the property was as advertised and offered us an enjoyable week by the water. We would rent again.
