About this property

Enchanting Family/Work Escape (with high speed wi-fi)!

Woodsong is fully licensed by the Town of Huntsville for short term and mid term rentals.

Welcome to 'Woodsong' Chalet- your families home away from home! This fully stocked year-round chalet is nestled in the woods, lakeside and slope-side, within the peaceful and exciting community of Hidden Valley.

Whether you are looking for a relaxing escape, an adventure-filled getaway, or some new scenery to work remotely (we have unlimited reliable high speed internet), Woodsong has it all!

Some quick highlights include:

- Our property is a combination of a flat grassy open backyard with la arge open fire pit surrounded by a well-wooded/naturalized perimeter providing an escape into nature while still being connected to the Hidden Valley community.
- Just a 4 minute walk from our front door brings you to a sandy private beach on Peninsula Lake with a volleyball court, kids play structure and manicured lawn for days at the beach in the summer, or skating in the winter.
- 100 steps from the front door provides easy 'ski-in/ski-out' access to all the slopes at Hidden Valley Resort (yes, it is literally steps from the chalet!)
- Looking for hiking, biking, or snowmobile trails? They are all located nearby.
- 1.8 kms to the golf course at Deerhurst Resort along with a handful of other courses nearby.
- 8 minutes to all the shops and amenities located in downtown Huntsville including your choice of 3 major grocery stores, the Algonquin Theater, Canada Summit Centre, and fantastic pubs and restaurants; also check out The Birches at Hidden Valley (a 3 minute walk away) and Deerhurst (a 15 minute walk) and more!
- Last but certainly not least, Woodsong is centrally positioned to local 'gems' such as Arrowhead Provincial Park (8 kms), Algonquin Provincial Park (30 minutes) , and Limberlost Forest (10 kms). Spend the day playing and exploring in these iconic parks then come back to relax and reflect.

Woodsong is a family-friendly chalet which boasts 3 very spacious upstairs bedrooms, all with relaxing views of the surrounding forest. The kids bedroom is quite large and has a large single-over-double bunk bed (with a hidden twin trundle bed below the bunk) as well as a additional (4th) twin bed. However, the upper balcony off the king master bedroom is sure to become a favourite spot for a morning coffee or evening glass of wine while looking for deer which frequently roam the property! There is also a 3rd full size bedroom featuring a queen sized bed.

The main level features a fully-equipped kitchen, powder room, mudroom, and a very comfortable living space complete with a working fireplace- the perfect place to unwind at the end of the day! Gather for meals around the table in the dining area or enjoy your meals among the trees in the great outdoors in the 3-season screened Muskoka room or on the elevated large back deck while taking-in nature including the fall colours.
The backyard fire pit is another favourite gathering place where many family memories are made all year round.

The fully carpeted basement has a media nook for movie-watching, gaming, as well as a 'kids space' complete with toys and books for younger family members. For those unable to leave work behind, a desk/work station is also located in the basement in close proximity to the internet source.

Travelling with little ones? We know there is no such thing as 'packing light' with them in tow. To help make things easier, Woodsong comes equipped with a highchair, booster seat, folding stroller, and pack 'n play, so you can lighten your load and leave some of your baby items at home!

Woodsong: relaxation in nature with adventure at your doorstep.

The possibilities here are endless. We look forward to welcoming you to our chalet!

August long weekend/ week
We had an amazing time staying at Woodsong! It had everything we need from the kitchen to the bedding to all the big stuff for a 14 month old! James was so helpful and super fast responding during the booking process and during our stay! Beautiful property and beautiful cottage! 100% recommend and hope to go back again!

summer stay
Wonderful vacation!! Communication was excellent with hosts. Chalet was well stocked, very clean. Peaceful and private location—we even saw a mother deer and her 2 fawns in the backyard! The beach had nice sand with shallow entry for the kids. I would recommend driving to the beach though, as the terrain is steep. Minutes to town for supplies, delicious ice cream, unique souvenirs. Highly recommend.

Amazing experience!
Our multi generation, group of six had an amazing experience at Woodsong. The host James is awesome and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable. The location of the cottage is perfect, just minutes to Hidden Valley resort, beach at Pennisula lake and a quick 10 minutes to Huntsville. The cottage was in pristine condition and has all amenities to ensure a peaceful stay. We loved the ample collection of games, chef's kitchen, comfortable couches to lounge, screened in porch and comfy beds! Our group enjoyed an amazing five days and all agreed we would love to come back.

Home away from Home
Spacious, comfortable and well-equipped. Great fire pit, short drive to the beach or town. A bit noisy sometimes as neighbours do construction work, but overall good fun and good value.

Beautiful cottage, convenient location
This cottage was exactly as advertised, and perfect for our getaway with the kids. The location is close to Huntsville and all the nearby parks including Arrowhead Provincial Park and Limberlost forest. Deerhurst is also close by. Skiing would have been extremely convenient, if there had been enough snow. James was a great host, who answered any questions very promptly. Highly recommend this cottage.

About the host

Hosted by James and Deanna

Host profile image
We are a family that has a special spot in our collective heart for the Huntsville area. As outdoor enthusiasts we have embraced this area for decades- whether traveling in solitude by canoe, experiencing winter magic on snoeshoes or skis, or travelling by foot into the woods, experiences in Muskoka have been amazing and life-shaping.
It is with pleasure that we can now share a piece of Muskoka with you; we hope that you too will fall in love with the raw beauty and natural richness of this amazing part of the planet!

Why they chose this property

Everyone experiences the world in their own way and this property is central to all types of recreational opportunities: with 'front-country' experiences out the front door and 'back-country' experiences a short drive away. Regardless of one's interests/outdoor pursuits, Woodsong chalet is nestled among the trees- a constant reminder of the location's beauty and the possibilities that await!

What makes this property unique

A major benefit of Woodsong is it's location- just about everything you could want is typically 10 minutes away, if not right out your doorstep! It is nice to be close enough to quickly go to town to pick up essentials (such as baked goods from the amazing bakeries) or shop on the main street, knowing that the escape back to nature's peace and quite is only minutes away!
The outdoor seating at Woodsong is truly special. The huge deck is amazing for gazing up at the forest canopy, while siting on the upper balcony is a peaceful way to start the day with a morning coffee.
