Muskoka cottage on Penlake. The perfect getaway surrounded by trees and nature.

Everything was exactly as described and pictured in the listing. Cottage was very clean and comfy. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you’d need. With its close proximity to Huntsville it would be a great cottage if you wanted to dine out or needed anything in town. Also a great location to access Algonquin Park. Steve, the host, was quick to respond to our questions as well. Our girls weekend was a hit! Just wish we could have stayed longer to fully enjoy all the amenities! Kathryn

Great cottage on a wonderful lake. Well maintained and operated - host was very responsive. The place has everything you need for a cottage getaway - kitchen items, water gear and fire wood.

Our stay at Steve's cottage last week was nothing short of magical. The highlight, without a doubt, was the **absolutely spectacular sunset view over Penn Lake, right from the private dock. Winding down each evening watching the sky explode in color over the calm water was an unforgettable experience – a view truly rare to find and worth the trip alone!The lake itself felt alive and welcoming. We loved watching the big fish swimming right under the deck and were charmed daily by a sweet family of ducks cruising peacefully along the shore. The sight of a huge pike lurking nearby sparked our fishing enthusiasm (though sadly, our gear wasn't quite up to the challenge this time – next visit we'll come prepared!).The cottage itself was perfect. Steve has clearly put thought into making guests comfortable. It was exceptionally well-stocked with everything we could possibly need for our week-long stay, from kitchen essentials to the big collection of good old movies. It truly felt like a home away from home.Location is a major plus! The proximity to Huntsville meant easy access to groceries, shops, and restaurants whenever needed. Even better, being so close to the Algonquin Park hiking trails allowed us to effortlessly combine serene lakeside relaxation with adventurous wilderness exploration – the best of both worlds! Definitely, we’ll come back in the fall.

Lovely, quiet area surrounded by nature, wonderful very comfortable cottage with everything required. Lake clear and peaceful. Host great. Easy drive into Dwight or Huntsville. Will hopefully return next summer, thanks for a perfect holiday.

Most amazing cottage! This is our second time at this property. Our first visit was during winter (to enjoy winter sports at Arrowhead), and this time we visited by early summer with the whole family.The cottage is beautiful and super cozy for couples and larger families alike. We had a great time enjoying the outdoors, canoeing and fishing by the lake. The hosts are also the best. I have a feeling that visiting Idlehour will become a family tradition for us!

Very nice, well built and designed place! Loved it here :)
