Perfect Family Getaway

This property was perfect for a family getaway! There were activities for all ages (lake, kayaking, canoeing, pool, hot tub, pool tables, volleyball court, basketball, etc.) and a short drive away from Huntsville and Bracebridge. The property manager was great to deal with and always available if you had any questions.

Paradise at The Landscapes

What a beautiful vacation we spent at your villa. Candy and Steve were a pleasure to deal with at time of booking all the way to the week of our trip. The villa was stunning and it had everything you quoted in your listing and so much more!! The grounds were spectacular and the crew at The Landscapes went above and beyond - so friendly and so kind. The pictures don’t do it justice. This is literally a piece of paradise not that far away from home. We are hoping to be able to book it again next year. Thank you again Candy and Steve your villa allowed us to reconnect with our family and enjoying our time together.

Excellent Stay and Hosts!

The Villa and entire property were excellent. Many things to do such as skating, hockey, snowshoeing and walking trails. The location is Great and within very close proximity of Huntsville, Bracebridge and Dorset. We could not have asked for better hosts in Candy & Steven and look forward to our return visit in April.

A wonderful getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We were in a two bedroom villa with 3 full bathrooms. The villa was very well stocked with every kitchen utensil and appliance you could wish for. The furnishings were immaculate and the bedrooms were very comfortable. We loved the amenities and used both the clubhouse and the boathouse. We also enjoyed unlimited access to the water crafts. The resort was very attuned to COVID precautions. We hope to return next summer!!

Our Landscapes Holidays.

For a week during each of the past two summers, we have rented a unit in the Landscapes â?? a cottage one year and a villa the next. The architecture and decorating all beautifully reflect the Muskoka look and feel. The Landscapes amenities are perfect for our family. We all, and especially our young grandson, love the heated pool and hot tub as well as the extensive beach, water craft, trampoline, and slide. The boathouse provides perfect viewing of the lake and sunsets and the club house is a comfortable and well-provisioned retreat for reading, playing games or meeting with other guests. The units we have rented are also beautifully designed and well-provisioned. In order to maintain the high standards and function of the units, I would suggest a review and replacement of some of the most frequently used items, such as the Teflon-coated cookware, dish cloths, coffee mugs and throw pillows. On the other hand, the bath linens were all pristine white and looked new. Overall, we have thoroughly enjoyed our holidays at the Landscapes and enthusiastically recommend it to anyone. It could only be better if the unit was available for two consecutive weeks!
