| We had a fabulous time at this lovely cottage near Orillia! It was well-stocked with toiletries, paper products, linens and towels - it's such a bonus not to have to pack all those items. Aside from being in a lovely location, there was so much to do at the cottage - we made constant use of the pool and hot tub as others have mentioned, but also really enjoyed the sauna and lighting a fire for s'mores in the campfire pit. Josh is very kind and responsive, and genuinely wants his guests to have a great experience. We highly recommend this cottage!

| Our stay at Josh's cottage was absolutely exceptional! From the moment we arrived, Josh greeted us warmly, took the time to welcome us, and gave us a thorough tour of the property. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, and the cottage is beautifully furnished with no expense spared.
The pool and hot tub were a huge hit with everyone, and the lake access was perfect for kayaking and enjoying the water. It was the ideal place to relax and make lasting memories. We had an amazing experience and will definitely be booking another stay next summer!
