Great stay, no issues. Walk to town was 1 km and the Old Railway Trail was a great find (just past the locks). Accommodation was perfect

We are glad you enjoyed your stay! Yes the rail trail is nice and close and given your period of stay you timed it perfect with the falling leaves and fall colors. Hope to have you back again!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was spotless, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the host gave clear check-in instructions. We all enjoyed Fenelon Falls and the nearby towns.

Tedra, hope you enjoyed yours stay. You are right the Kabins resort is across the road from the lake and water access is via a public entrance as stated in the listing. The access to the water is quiet and lots of space for our guests. The sunsets over the water are beautiful and we hope you got to enjoy them.

10/10! Perfect location, spotless and well-kept, with very comfortable beds. The property had everything we needed for a great stay—would definitely return and highly recommend.

Our overall stay was great and this cottage had everything we needed.Just a couple of things that should be mentioned.We were four mature ladies who were happy to obtain a four bedroom and two bathroom unit. That was until, we realized there were two bedrooms on the lower level with no bathroom. This was a bit of a problem with having minor mobility issues. We would not have booked if we knew this in advance. We were also disappointed that we were not on the water as the advertisement picture indicated.Putting aside the two negatives, it was a wonderful couple of days and the accommodation was a good size for the four of us and it was extremely clean.Thank you.

Had a great time! Good communication from hosts and the house was well equipped for all our needs. We wanted for nothing, highly recommend! Only nitpick is the water smell, you get used to it though, it's like a hot spring! and maybe add a couple more lamps instead of just overhead lights.

Overall property was good. Water supply was disappointing, not only being non-drinkable but very strong odor. Lower level bedrooms were nice, but no bathrooms on the lower level. Very convenient to town, and great starting point to exploring the Kawartha.

Weekend wedding

We had a wedding in Burnt River and needed a place to stay. This worked out great! Didn’t have as much time to enjoy it as we would have liked. Next time!

Positives: - very clean and very laid out - well stocked; everything needed for your stay - management was very accessible and accommodating - easy to integrate into your stay - new appliances - 2 big screen tvs - AC superb; great for hot days - main seating area was well - nice amenities, such as: canoes, paddle boards, campfire - close to town - nice community of cottagers dog friendly Concerns: - mentions about not drinkable water, no mention of strong odour - manage expectations of ‘the public beach’ - be aware of the waterfront view from the cottage - be aware there is no dock accessibility; it’s private property - literally speaking– your right next to the marina - bed height in one of the rooms was not anticipated - close to main highway into town; noise is manageable Window over the kichen sink needs blinds. Lamps would add a nice touch.

We had a wonderful time at Dorado Cottage. The place is spotless, very well appointed, and had excellent air conditioning. The pictures of the place DO NOT deceive. It was very hot and we loved being able to come into the air conditioned cottage when we couldn't bear the heat. There were four of us senior women, and we appreciated the owners quick response to any concerns. Note to other seniors, there are stairs but they are manageable. The 2 ladies who had knee problems stayed in the upstairs bedrooms. We each had our own rooms which was great! And 2 bathrooms was perfect for 4 adults.All appliances worked, which is not always the case. Plenty of pots, pans, dishes, etc. We didn't mind that we were not right on the water because the small beach across the road was very close. We didn't use the kayaks or other water toys. Would return to this property in the future. Thank you Evan! and Dorado Cottage.
