The kitchen is very well equipped with an island unit, quality microwave, convection oven, fridge, pantry with blender and plenty of crockery and utensils. The dining room seats 8 and 4 barstools provide further eating space at the island unit.

EXTERIOR:

Outside is a Beachcomber hot tub which seats 8 and has coloured lights and fountain. The nearby firepit is built into the granite landscaping and is perfect for roasting marshmallows and stargazing.

Approximately 20 wide granite steps lead to the lake with 2 waterfront areas. The dock is out from June until mid October and it leads out to deep water, suitable for diving... also perfect if you're bringing your own boat (boat launch is across the lake, on the way to the cottage).

The 2nd waterfront area has 2 chairs, perfect to watch the sunrise and watch the wildlife in the bay.

The lake has been measured to be one of the cleanest in Ontario and it is excellent for swimming and boating. A canoe and 2 kayaks are available for use and further boats can be rented in Haliburton.

There is plenty of wildlife in the area. We usually see deer when driving up the road at dusk, while wild turkeys, beaver, otters, wild turkeys and heron have all been seen.

The lake is well stocked for fishing, with bass and lake trout.

A basketball net is also available.

Dianne hosted us over the Labour Day weekend and had an amazing cottage. The cottage was better than the pictures…. The lake was super nice, beds were super comfortable and it has a large deck with plenty of chairs and loungers to hangout and eat dinner outside. Check in process was smooth and place was clean! Would go back again!

Best cottage I've stayed at!

This cottage is stunning, and the property is very well maintained! The cottage itself is so well stocked, and they have clear instructions for everything so you're never in doubt about anything. Dianne and her property manager were always super responsive throughout the booking process and when we were at the cottage. Highly recommend this space for a larger group. I would absolutely try to book this place again for future trips! Thank you so much Dianne for being such an excellent host!

Amazing property!!

We absolutely loved staying at Diane’s place. Not only was it super spacious, but the space was clean, and filled with everything we needed (kitchen utensils, extra blankets, etc). The lake was incredible, the hot tub was working well and was easy to use. The seating situation was great with multiple chairs on every level. The deck was huge and had sun exposure, pulse umbrella for shade. We talked all weekend about going back next summer and we probably will try to book the place again. Diane was super communicative and speedy with her responses. Amazing host, beautiful property, and an all around incredible experience!

We had a great time in Dianne cottage. Thank you very much for letting us be your guests. Hot tub was a wonderful feature which compensated bad weather condition which affected cross-country ski trails. I definitely recommend the cottage for everyone who is looking for serenity and magical winter escape. Regards Emma D (Toronto)

Quiet, relaxing, solitude

The cottage was clean and well laid out with everything you needed. The property and waterfront is beautiful, in a quiet area of the lake. The fire pit, hot tub, deck and dock chairs made it easy to enjoy the outdoors, and the seating, windows, and fireplace made the inside nice and cozy.

Olivia - December 2018

What a lovely place to get away and spend time with family. The cottage has a very practical layout for families to get together and hang out. The views are gorgeous and was a perfect winter wonderland for our family Christmas holiday. Definitely recommend a 4x4 incase of heavy snow falls and keep an eye on black ice warnings for the area... Dianne was super helpful and very quick to respond to any messages. You will certainly not be disappointed if you chose this for your holiday!

Milad - September 2018

We had a lot of fun in Dianne's cottage. Kids caught a lot of fish and they loved it. It is a clan and spacious cottage and for three families it was a lot of space. The lake water is clear and full of fish. We caught a few perch which shows what a clean and nice lake it is.

About the host

Hosted by Dianne

Host profile image
My husband and I have 3 daughters and this is our family cottage - we love to share our special part of Haliburton with others who will take care of it as their own home!

Why they chose this property

I grew up spending all my summers at a cottage on a nearby lake- I love the incredibly clean, clear water, and Haliburton is a wonderful village :-)

What makes this property unique

The cottage is in a fantastic location- our side of the lake was only developed 30 years ago and it’s very natural, with nothing between us and the Algonquin. It’s also wonderful that there are neighbours on only 1 side and that the other side is all natural :-)

Guests also comment how well stocked the kitchen is - tons of crockery, utensils, pots, pans, serving dishes etc... everything needed for home away from home.
