Wonderful stay on Rice lake, the hosts were easy to communicate with and very responsive. Boats were great to explore the lake and fishing from the dock provided fun experiences of catch and release. Nearby places to visit included great hiking, good food trucks and antique shops.

Nice 3BR 1 bath cottage. On a good part of Rice Lake with deep weed-free water off the dock. The boathouse deck was a great sitting area. On rainy days we also sat in the boathouse with the door open. A short 20 min drive to several towns with good shops and restaurants. The hosts, Astrid and Sheldon, were available when needed. Provided bed sheets and hand towels is appreciated. Less to bring from home.

An awesome vacation!

The cottage location was fantastic with the lake only a few steps away. The cottage was very well stocked with plenty of water toys available as well. Enjoyed many relaxing evenings viewing the beautiful sunset from the deck over the boathouse. We thoroughly enjoyed our week stay, thanks Astrid and Sheldon. Wendy & Bill

A Wonderful Holiday!

We had a great time with family and friends. Very relaxing, safe from Covid,, swimming, ,beautiful sunsets, watching movies, taking turns cooking for each other, and talking. The cottage was lovely, comfortable, with cool nights after the city heat.. All in all an enjoyable time for the six of us.

Best cottage get away!

Family of 8 (5 adults and 2 children) stayed for a week and we definitely wish we booked for a much longer stay! The cottage was very clean, cozy and fit us all perfectly. The week we stayed was VERY hot/humid but we were thankful Astrid and Sheldon had fans in each room. We enjoyed all the water toys that were provided. We wished we had better luck with fishing but theres always next time ;) The sunsets were AMAZING every single night and the camp fire by the water was a nice touch! If we had any questions Astrid was always very helpful. We are very grateful we got a chance to stay at a cottage that could accommodate all of us. Thank you Astrid and Sheldon!!

Four Glorious Days on Rice Lake

My husband and I had a glorious getaway in Roseneath while our home was under renovation. We had a 2 1/2 hour drive from Dundas to Roseneath, and loved the cottage on Rice Lake. Full sun from 1:00 p.m. to sunset, the boat house deck was lovely, we sat most of the day outside, my husband fished, I kayaked, and we BBQ’d in the late day sun. Sunsets were outstanding. The cottage was cute and evident that a thorough renovation was recently completed. Astrid was a pleasure to deal with, and stayed in touch with us throughout out the booking process, until we arrived at the cottage. I would recommend this cottage to any couple or family to come up and see what Rice Lake has to offer.

Loved the whole experience!

We had a fabulous 9 days at Astrid and Sheldon's cottage. Everything was comfortable including the patio furniture, the beds, and the couches- we relaxed, spent time talking, reading, swimming, and sleeping. The fans and lake breezes kept us cool in the hot, humid weather, and we enjoyed getting our family together. The toys were a bonus, and we had fun kayaking, canoeing, and paddle boarding. Hope to come back soon!

Beautiful property! The house and outside deck is gorgeous!

The owners are a wonderful couple, very welcoming and sweet. The cottage was decorated beautifully, with all the necessary cooking tools. The outside deck was amazing for our sunset dinners. Many water toys for us to enjoy, during some very hot summer days. Fishing from the dock was very enjoyable for our husbands. Three couples felt very comfortable in this space. There is no air conditioning but the owners have provided fans in each room and ceiling fans that kept the cottage very comfortable. This is truly a place to relax, enjoy the view of the lake, read some books from the cottage collection and slow down. It is a 10 out of 10! I would definitely go back to this cottage.
