This was a lovely property! The outdoor spaces were delightful, and we enjoyed the sauna and hot tub. The photographs accurately reflected the interior and exterior spaces, and the interior was comfortable and well-laid-out. We especially loved how light-filled the house was, and the walk-out level game and television room was definitely a bonus! The host was responsive, helpful, and easy to work with. We would definitely stay here again!
Wouldâve been fantastic if it wasnât for the fact I had to reach out to the property host right before the trip to get check in information and if the place was cleaned before we arrived. For the amount of money paid for three nights to show up and the place is absolutely disgusting with hair, messy beds, food left over in the fridge, trash, as well as towels in the washing machine with an odour in the house of sweaty dudes, it wouldâve been great. Spent two hours cleaning to then be told they could send a cleaner at 10pm that night. Told them to send it the next day. Contacted VRBO and getting refunded. Seems like a great place but the management is terrible. Nothing has been done yet to rectify the situation besides trying to have cleaners come during our stay. By the way this was for a bachelor party for my brother. Youâd think something of that magnitude would result in some care. Disappointed overall.
My husband and I stayed for two nights to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. It is a nicely built cottage with lots of amenities. It was clean, but in need of a deep clean. We would go again! Thank you for having us!
Property is nice on the inside. Location is not favourable as it is not lakefront and doesnât have many opportunities for lakefront activities nearby. Otherwise it is fun if you enjoy sauna and hot tubs and bbqs.
Beautiful well-maintained house with lots of amenities. My sister and I enjoyed making ourselves lattes in the morning using the coffee station and relaxing on the deck. Lots of space for a bigger group and very close to Haliburton.
The cottage itself was both cozy and luxurious. The host definitely thought of all the details and we felt welcomed. I only wished the description mentioned the outdoor surveillance cameras, but they weren't a deal breaker and I would probably want them there, too, if I were the host. The beach and huge playground in town were just a short drive and made the kids' week. We made some great memories here. Thank you!!
Chose this property for our week away in Ontario and could not be happier! Perfect house and property. Hot tub and sauna were very relaxing just what we needed!
We had a lovely stay, beautiful and clean cottage with lots of space. We enjoyed the onsite hot tub and sauna as well as lots of fall walks on nearby cottage roads.
If you are in the Haliburton area, this house should be at the top of your list of places to stay. It is spotless and well-appointed, tucked away on a quiet road. We had a restful and comfortable stay :)
This property is amazing, everything seemed to have been considered to make life comfortable. Facilities were great and as described. Beautiful kitchen great open spaces. Cleanliness was second to none. Practical aspects of life including facilities for washing clothes were to a very high standard.
Fitted our family comfortably, kids also had a great time. Wouldnât hesitate to recommend.
We had an amazing stay at The Blue Lakehouse. The property is perfect for a family, and the surroundings beautiful. Lini was an incredible host. Accommodating, responsive and respectful. This spot is highly recommended for a weekend away.
The place was nicer in person than even shown in the pictures, which is reverse than what you normally see.
LiNi was responsive and communicative. Would definitely stay again.
Comfortable with hot tub and sauna to help relax and all to enjoy. Evening entertainment on smart TVs enjoyable for kids and adults. Access to Haliburton and Eagle Lake easy. Enjoyed the hospitable atmosphere.
Property is just as listing describes, cottage is beautiful, and is so nice and bright. Decorating is done amazing, this was a great girls weekend retreat, looking forward to a return visit.
The Blue Lake House is a hidden gem in Haliburton. We had a great time as a family visiting and will definitely be going back in the future. The owner was easy to contact and was quick to answer any questions we had.
Awesome place and exactly as described in listing. Had everything we needed for our weekend stay. Really enjoyed the hot tub and Sauna. LiNi was very helpful and quick to respond. Would definitely recommend.
We had a great time at this property. It is well maintained, clean, and very comfortable. We were very impressed with how well stocked it was - little things like having coffee pods and olive oil available make planning so much easier. The hot tub was a major plus. Lini was very responsive and ensured we had a great stay. Look forward to booking our next stay!
Cottages likes these are hard to find and weâre definitely happy to have stayed here.
It is clean, spacious, and has everything you need for the enjoyment of the whole family.
The area is really nice as well and was only 2 hours away from Toronto.
The property was beautiful and exactly as depicted in the photos. We enjoyed the hot tub and sauna and the close by snow shoe trails. The cottage is very baby and dog friendly. Our host even provided a pack and play for our little one so we didn't have to bring one with us. She was also very responsive when we had any questions about the property. We look forward to returning to the Blue Lakehouse and hope to make it an annual trip. Highly recommend!
This home was exactly as pictured, very clean, bright and was ready for our arrival. The amenities were all as pictured and made our stay very enjoyable. Grocery store was only a short drive which made the stay convenient. The location was peaceful, which is exactly what we needed. Great for couple or a family getaway. Did not want to leave! Would highly recommend - will be back.
We spent a magical family Christmas at the Blue Lake House. The chalet is even more beautiful than the photos and comfortably accommodated our family of 5 plus grandparents. The cottage was decorated for Christmas, making our stay even more special.
LiNi is very responsive and answered our questions very quickly.
The Haliburton area is perfect for a winter getaway with excellent cross country skiing nearby.
We also enjoyed the sauna and hot tub.
We will remember our Christmas at LiNiâs cottage always.
My wife and I decided to stay at this beautiful blue lake house to celebrate her birthday with our 2 children and our dog in November. We fell in love with this lake house. As soon as you arrive you can tell that the host put their heart and soul into this place and paid attention to every single detail. The place was spotless and the hosts really thought ahead and anticipated and provided anything you may need and more. We really enjoyed the hot tub and the sauna during the cold weather and watching the snow fall through those huge windows was magical. The host was extremely attentive and responded immediately to any questions we had. We are already planning a trip to return in the summer to be able to utilize the lake. We have stayed at many short term rentals over the years and this place has been the best so far without question. Thank you the great stay and we canât wait to go back!
