If you have been to different lakes in Ontario, you’d probably know how beautiful, large, and clean Rice Lake is. Two Piggies Cottage is a spacious waterfront cottage that faces West, letting you enjoy the spectacular sunsets, everyday. Trust us, when you have seen the sunset here, nothing in life really feels matters but the beauty you are witnessing.

Two Piggies Cottage is a spacious, modern, luxurious 5-bedroom cottage with many features and amenities for a relaxing and worry-free getaway. Two bedrooms on the upper floor have lake views, walkout balcony and KING beds, one other bedroom has a QUEEN bed and another bedroom upstairs has a two TWIN beds (one slides out). On the main floor we have a bedroom downstairs there is a day bed that opens up to King.

Our cottage comfortably sleeps about 10 guests (5 bedrooms). On a case by case basis, we may permit larger group sizes, potentially with a security deposit. Note that group size refer to both adults and children inclusive.

All water at the cottage is UV-filtered and perfectly drinkable, which makes it great for families with young kids. We are also pleased to offer full linen (duvet covers, bed sheets, and pillow sheets) but please bring your own towels.

Enjoy the incredible view of the scenic Rice Lake from the balcony or patio or your own bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms are each equipped with King beds with a shared, walk-out balcony for you to appreciate all the beauty of the lake all day. Kitchen is recently renovated for you to create meals that bond people together. The recently upgraded kitchen is fully equipped and includes a Stove, Fridge, Microwave, Drip Coffee Maker, Cookware, Dishes and Cutlery (there are enough cutlery for 10 people which is our target group size, please bring any additional cutlery you might need depending on your group). Other features include a 5 burner + side burner propane barbecue, large patio and a cozy inflatable hot tub that fits 2-4 adults, and a private dock. Come and enjoy your time with people you love :)

Hot tub is not available during the winter. It is put away in storage to prevent damage. Per manufacturer instruction, hot tub can only be used when outdoor temperature is consistently above 4 Celsius, including overnight time. Hot tub need to be turned on approximately 4-12 hours in advance depending on outdoor temperature.

OTHER DETAILS:

The entire cottage is exclusively yours for your enjoyment (except for unfinished basement). All cars must be parked in the driveway (and not on grass).

Rice Lake is famous for fishing, kayaking, boating, family fun, and generally enjoying life. You can also access many famous sightseeing places nearby, such as Prince Edward County, Sandbanks, etc.

- The most important rule is, please treat it like your own house.

- Remove outdoor shoes at front door.

- No pets on any of the furniture (sofa or beds). Pets must be fully dry before coming back inside the home.

- Hot tub may or may not be working. The host is under no obligation to provide a refund if the hot tub is not working during your stay. The host does regularly have the hot tub inspected and cleaned, but on occasion there might be unexpected failure that may result in loss of use of the hot tub (or other facilities in the property such as internet, BBQ, TV, etc)

- Firewood is not provided. Although there are often extra firewood, we do not ensure they are refilled. Please bring your own firewood and any thing you might need to start-up and enjoy the campfire experience.

- Although we love pets, our cleaning process regrettably restrict pets. Pet will need to be approved in advance and if approved, pet fee of $100 per pet will apply. If you will have more than one pet, please let us know.

Every additional bag above the allowance of 01 bag of organic waste will result in additional fee of $50 per bag. The city has very strict rules regarding garbage and even a minor mix up would result in garbage & recycle not being collected.

not as great as others
water is shallow and full of weeds, could not swim; gardens especially at water edge were overgrown; sleeps 10, however, if 2 of them aren't children then the one bedroom, more the size of a closet, has a single with trundle but can't have trundle set up and open the door, no closet or even a shelf to put stuff on; we take a trip every year with the 10 adults and this is one we wont return to

About the host

Hosted by Jen and Long

Host profile image
Hello there! I’m from Vietnam and have been living and working in a couple of countries before settling in Toronto a couple of years ago. I used to travel a lot, stayed in a lot of places, met a lot of wonderful hosts, and have been a host myself in my own home. I thoroughly enjoy the interaction, the stories, the personalities - those have opened up my world like never before. My co-host is my boyfriend who is also a Vietnamese but grew up in Canada.

The pandemic has taught us many lessons, and one of them is the value of peace, of appreciating beauty in our own backyard, and of enjoying time and having lasting memories with people who are closest to us. Because life isn’t about how long you will live, but it’s about the experiences that shape your life. We became more keenly aware of the blessings we have, and started to seek opportunities to create space for people to enjoy this beautiful place.

We love to eat; hence the name Two Piggies for our cottage :D We love food, travelling, and exploring new cultures and experiences. We live in the GTA area and love to spend time at our Two Piggies when we are not hosting.

Thank you for visiting our listing and we hope you will have beautiful memories at our place, just like how it has created peace and memories for us. We hope to welcome you at our space soon.
