Cottage+Cabin on Horseshoe Lake = 2 Kitchens+2 Bath+Raft+Beach+Level Lot

Come vacation on the tranquil shore of Horseshoe Lake. Wonderful level lot. You will find a three bedroom cottage and a sweet one-room cabin which is only a few feet away from the water.

South-facing: sun on the dock and beach all day. You will find a great wading area then deep swimming. No weeds or mush. Large new dock with a ladder. Dive in and swim out to our raft. Quiet, beautiful Haliburton Highlands lake. 200 feet of shoreline to enjoy, the aerial picture shows the waterfront, yours to investigate.

Fire pit beside the water
Good barbeque lots of gas
Picnic area with tables and chairs

A kayak, canoe and a paddle boat
Kids’ kayaks, row boat and SUP
Also a tin boat

The cottage has lots of windows and a well-equipped, spacious kitchen. High ceiling over the living room and dining area.

The little cabin has a king bed, a kitchenette and a bathroom with a small shower. It's only a few feet away from the water.

Crisp cotten sheets on all the beds.

We keep it very clean, organized and in good repair. This is our fifth year of hosting.

Wifi and good cell reception

There is a dirt road between the cottage and the lake (the cabin is beside the lake you don’t cross the road). Google Reynolds Road, Minden for a look. We are near the three islands.

Nice ten minute drive to the town of Minden for groceries, shops and restaurants.

Friendly neighbourhood. We own the cottage next door to you. We have our own dock and it’s around a bend from yours. You will have the beach and your own private dock. Your other neighbour is 200 feet away, no other docks close to yours.

We respect your privacy but also we are usually there to tend to any issues. Thank you for finding us!

Wonderful lake spot nestled among ancient pines
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottages (2) are clean and accommodating for a few people or many, and there is a sandy beach, very clean lake water, access to boats, a fire pit, and a great view. Our hostess was just lovely. We’ll definitely go back.

Great location and property
The cottage and lakeside cottage package was perfect for us. Both cottage were spotless and had pretty much eveything you need. Spectacular view of the lake and absolutely great for swimming and water activites. The big plus for us is that they allow dogs. As the description mentions, there is a small dirt road between the cottage and water but it was not a factor at all for us. Pretty much just people that live around the lake are driving on the road and they drive slowly and cautiously when they see people. Rosemary and her family are amazing to deal with, such a nice and caring family. They do live next door, which to us is a plus for us since if there is anything we need they take care of it right away. We can't wait to plan our week at this cottage again next summer.

Great family cottage
The grandkids loved the sandy shallow water entry. There is a great grassy play area. The only downside is the road between the cottage and the lake. It isn't a busy road but you to have to watch the kids. The cottage itself is older but completely fine. The living area is large with plenty of seating and a large dining table. The kitchen is well equipped with all the pots, bowls, knives, etc. that you will need. The one bed cabin is surprisingly large and it is right on the water. Large windows give you a great view of the lake and islands. Marshal and Rosemary are the best hosts you will find. Although they live right next door they are never intrusive. They are very helpful if you have a question or a request and they anticipate what you might need. In our case that was blocks and puzzles for the kids on a rainy day. It was greatly appreciated. For us this property checked all the boxes. Thanks for everything!

Great View
We enjoyed our stay at the cottage and bunkie. Waterfront was beautiful with kayaks, canoe, rowboat and paddle boat. We had no problem with the wifi. The owner had installed a wifi extender just before we arrived and all 6 of us were able to connect at the same time.

Our stay for the week was glorious! The property is perfect and is a gem find, ticking off an incredible variety of spaces in one rental. Clean and spacious kitchen and bath were the star feature of making this cottage/cabin ideal for family with 3 young adults. The owners thought of everything when stocking the cupboards. Two issues we encountered that really would have helped: ceiling fan in large room didn’t work and with no a/c this was tough; and wifi could only handle one devise connected and even then frequently dropped thus our eldest daughter couldn’t join us earlier and take a zoom work meeting from the cottage. In all: the property was terrific and location can’t be beat!
