Thank-you so much Sophie! It was a pleasure to host your family all the way from FRANCE for your Christmas holiday at our Haliburton Bitter Lake rental cottage! My partner is also from France and was thrilled to help out with any questions that you had in French and to translate whenever you needed it. One of the many extras we are so thrilled to be able to offer our guests travelling from far away.

We wanted so much for you to feel so very welcome and feel right at home. So happy that you did and were also lucky enough to even have a beautiful white snowfall for pretty much all of your stay. What a perfect impression of how magical is is to experience a true Canadian cottage in winter! Thank you so much for choosing our Bitter Lake cottage for your stay.

And so happy to hear you enjoyed the cozy comfort of our luxurious new bedrooms and bathrooms and even our fully stocked kitchen with 36 Spice drawer!!! Perfect for preparing a holiday feast!

I was so thrilled that you also enjoyed the Haliburton Forest which is only 10 minutes away! Their guided snowshoe tours and the Haliburton Forest Wolf Centre are unforgettable experience you can take back home with you.

I hope you will return again next time you are back in Canada. It has truly been a pleasure Sophie

Beautiful!!
Came to Bitter Lake for a week on my Honeymoon. Definitely recommend staying here. Very peaceful, clean and cute!
Laura is an amazing Host. Everything you need in a cottage is there. Any questions we had were answered quickly. Wll definitely be back next year!!

Thanks Rob!

Such an honour to host you and Jessica for your honeymoon! Thanks so much for being such an amazing guest and also taking such great care of my cottage during your holiday.

Honeymoons at the cottage and also surprise proposals.... I can't think of a more perfect place than at the lake! Thanks so much for choosing our cottage for your very special celebration!

I'm so thrilled that this sounds like it may become your new annual tradition! Can't wait to host you again next year Rob!! You are always welcome back. :)

My family and I just spent 2 weeks at the cottage on Bitter Lake and had a fantastic time. The cottage and property are beautiful. Large grassy lawn with an amazing big fire pit to enjoy star gazing and marshmallow roasting. Surrounded by trees so you feel very private. The cottage had everything we needed to be comfortable. It was incredibly clean and organized . The bathrooms were new and beautiful. Towels and linens provided made packing so easy. Just took our food and clothes. We drank the water from the tap and it was wonderful. The deck midway between the cottage and dock was a nice added sitting area where we would take our lunch and a drink as it gets amazing sun in the afternoon. The dock was large enough for 4 adults and our dog to sit comfortably. The ladder into the water was great for those is us that can't jump right in. The lake itself is great . The water felt clean and refreshing. As the lake is not super large, there was not a lot of boat traffic, which was wonderful. Having the use of the 2 kayaks and 2 waterboards really enhanced our time as it was nice to get onto the water and paddle and explore the lake a bit. Laura has thought of everything that you need to arrive and settle in quickly and start enjoying your vacation. We even had a s'mores kit and doggy treats for our fur baby. If you are looking for an updated, clean , comfortable cottage on a beautiful property and lake I would highly recommend. Laura is a thoughtful and responsive hostess.

Thanks so much Deborah! It was such a pleasure to host your family holiday. I love that you enjoyed all the outdoor spaces... this is exactly how I spend my time at the cottage as well. And yes, agree, the lot is quite private which helps guests to be able to really relax and enjoy their holiday away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It's great being nestled among the trees like this. So healing and relaxing too.

Please come visit us again Deborah. And thank-you for taking such great care of the cottage during your stay. You are always welcome at the lake!

Warmly
Laura

We had a fantastic week at H2H cottage. Nice lake and lots of fun on the water with the provided paddle board amd kayaks. The cottage is cozy and beautifully decorated. Laura truly has thought of everything to make her guests feel comfortable. Would definitely return!

Thanks so much Giselle!

Great to hear you enjoyed our 2 paddle boards and 2 kayaks during your stay! Agree - Bitter Lake is so fun to explore!! Sunsets on the dock are simply amazing as well.

And so thrilled you loved our decor! We really appreciate that. We newly renovated this spring, both bathrooms are completely new and so fresh and modern. A real treat while at the lake. We like to think of it as kind of a rustic yet luxurious mix of decor... you still feel like you are at a cottage, but have all the comforts of home and more. ;) Kind of a mix of boho, Hygge, contemporary and rustic too!! Perfect cozy combo for sure.

Thanks for being such a great guest and for leaving my cottage clean and tidy as well! This is always so appreciated and welcome. You are welcome back to the lake anytime

Warmly,
Laura

We spent an wonderful two weeks at Laura's cottage and highly recommend it! Laura has done an amazing job in setting you up for an excellent holiday. The description she's provided of the cottage says it all. The setting is beautiful and relaxing. The cottage is cozy and rustic but also has updated and modern amenities. Just enough basic supplies are provided that we weren't rushing out to buy things (so helpful and also less
wasteful). The interior and landscaping create a cozy cottage vibe. Bitter lake is a smaller lake (but big enough!) with friendly people. There is minimal boat traffic and boat operators were very respectful. There is lots to do in the area, and if you choose to stay in there are paddle boards and kayaks at the cottage. For the first time in
3 years I felt I truly "relaxed" and am grateful for time spent at Laura's cottage. We hope to visit again in the future.

Oh my gosh!!! JoAnne, this is HUGE!! Thank-you for sharing!!!!!!!!!

"For the first time in 3 years I felt I truly "relaxed" and am grateful for time spent at Laura's cottage. We hope to visit again in the future."

Two weeks is a perfect amount of time to settle in and really unwind and move into 'cottage mode'. So happy you were able to find two back to back weeks available to book. What a treat!!

I love that you found our cottage beautiful and relaxing.. I have to be honest. Me too. And it means so much when others get to feel that as well. This is part of the joy of sharing this space with guests to experience for their holiday. It's what makes it all worthwhile.

I hope to see you again next year JoAnne, it has truly been a pleasure. You were a joy to host and are welcome back to the lake anytime!

Warmly,
Laura
