Find a Haliburton Cottage That Has Everything You Need.

There are so many options out there that you can choose for a holiday. Some people choose to stay at a bed & breakfast because it gives them more privacy than staying in a hotel. However, renting a cottage is so much more of an experience. There are so many cottages available across Ontario, and each one has its own unique charm. Some are large and luxuriously rustic like our Kennisis Lake cottage, other can be smaller but still evoke traditional rustic Canadian cottage style with a touch of luxury like H2H Bitter Lake cottage. A private cottage rental allows you to always have the full home to yourselves where you can live by your own schedule, plan your favourite events and excursions, cook your own favourite foods just the perfect way that you like them, and enjoy having so much peace and privacy to enjoy yourselves undisturbed.

It is so important to find a place where you know your will instantly feel right at home and welcome. You want a place where you can relax and enjoy yourself, not have to worry about mundane tasks and to-do lists at home. Somewhere where you can arrive with your groceries and clothes and instantly start enjoying your holiday from the moment you arrive. A great Cottage Rental should offer everything you need to make your stay comfortable and relaxing and the host should be able to help you by answering any questions you might have about the cottage or area to help you prepare for your holiday and to enjoy it while there. The cottage should come equipped with everything you'll need to prepare delicious meals (spice drawer anyone?!), Linens and towels (because who wants to have to lug sheets then need to make up their own bed after a long drive?!) cozy up under snuggly blankets to stream movies on reliable wifi, quiet comfortable nooks to relax and enjoy reading books and playing board games together, and more such as what you will find at H2H Kennisis Lake and Bitter Lake cottages. The cottage should feel like your relaxing, stress free home away from home. Make sure you check out reviews before booking so you know what to expect when you arrive at your destination. You will be able to tell from other guests comments that the host was welcoming and the cottage was clean and a joy to settle into during their stay.

If you’re looking for a place where you can relax and enjoy some peace and quiet together, then a cottage getaway might be exactly what you and your loved ones need.

Be Sure to Enjoy the View around Haliburton.

Ontario cottages are known to offer some of the best nature views in the world. These are places to go to for viewing the most stunning sunrises, taking in the Autumn leaves colours, enjoying a frosty sparkling winter landscape while snuggling in front of a warm fireplace. For example, H2H Kennisis Lake Cottage is renowned for it’s stunning elevated views. For the photographer or social media maven in you, you’ll find that cottages are simply the perfect place for becoming connected with and capturing the essence of the beautiful nature and scenery surrounding you and then sharing your stunning experiences online. It’s hard not to want to!

But the view is not only from the cottage looking out! There will also be places to explore all around nearby. You can explore the area by hiking, biking, fishing, swimming, or just relaxing in the sun. In winter there is just as much to explore. Ask your cottage host for tips. Usually, they will have a great inside scoop on the best places to explore in the area to help you to make the most of your stay.

Find a Rental Cottage You Can Visit Year Round.

The best part is the cottage vacations are year round! And every time of year can bring you a totally distinct experience than the last season you were there. For example, if you are typically a summer cottage renter, then you are already familiar with the paddling, swimming, lounging in the sun and starry nights by the bonfire. But if you can in Autumn this could be completely different. Picture looking out over the lake seeing the trees dressed up in their finest autumn reds, yellows, and oranges as far as the eye can see. Imagine yourself sipping hot chocolate by the campfire while snuggling under cozy wool blankets with your loved ones. Hiking through magical forests filled with colour and crisp leaves crackling underfoot. In winter cottage life is a completely different wonderland. Snowshoeing, snowmobiling, and even dogsledding is among your options. There are even tours for the more adventurous. Can you imagine ice fishing in a heated cabin sitting out on a lake? Cottage life in winter will take you away from the boredom of every day. And the best part? So peaceful. So serene. The perfect environment for connecting and unwinding together.

Cottages offer beautiful scenery, peaceful surroundings, and plenty of activities to keep everyone entertained. Year Round.

Choose the Right Haliburton Rental Cottage Location.

Before choosing a location, think about what kind of environment you'd prefer. Do you enjoy spending time outdoors? Or do you prefer being indoors? Would you rather stay in a quiet area or one with lots of activity? You'll need to decide where you'd like to go before booking a cottage getaway.

You should choose a location based on what you want to do while there. For example, if you want to go fishing, then you might want to pick a cottage on a lake where you can fish. If you enjoy hiking, then you might want a park with trails nearby. Reach out you your host. They will be familiar with the area and can help to answer any questions you might have. A good host can even connect you with great local our companies and fun ideas of the best things to do near the cottage to help you to plan and to fill your stay with the fun and adventure you are looking for.

You'll need to decide whether you're looking for a place to stay for a few days or weeks. If you plan to stay for a brief period, then you might only need a small cabin if that is what you desire. However, if you plan to stay for several weeks, or just enjoy having lots of space, you'll want something larger like at our Kennisis Lake cottage for example, so that you will have some privacy when you need it and a choice of places to get away to cozy up for special moments alone together, especially if travelling with a large group.

Making Your Cottage Experience Gift Idea Extra Special.

When presenting your loved one with the gift of a cottage vacation you can add a unique and very individualized touch by creating a customized gift basket filled with local treats and goodies. Or, you can add a personalized message to the card explaining why you chose the cottage just for them. They will love it!

And there are so many ways to make a cottage getaway extra special once you are there too! You can pre-plan and book ahead. Or even just prepare a list if ideas to choose from one the gift has been given. One thing I love doing when I travel is finding new trails in the forest to explore. Especially when there is a distinctive feature like a waterfall or lookout tower to arrive at. It’s a fun activity for everyone involved, we can even make it a scavenger hunt. Another idea is to take a local tour or class. This will give you an opportunity to learn new skills and enjoy what the area has to offer at the same time. In Haliburton cottage country there are so many great tour operators offering everything from mushroom foraging, art classes, to white water kayaking. Staying at a cottage will allow you the opportunity to explore unfamiliar places and see things you wouldn't normally visit. It takes you away from your day-to-day life and to somewhere new and different.
