Holiday rentals with a kayak in Otonabee-South Monaghan

What a wonderful place. Very cozy, clean beautiful little house. Extremely responsive host. Beautiful lake view. Will definitely be back

Our stay at Addie's cottage was delightful. The place was clean, well-furnished, and equipped with all the necessary utensils. Both hot and cold water pressure was excellent, creating a cozy and warm atmosphere. The bedrooms were tidy and comfortable. Addie proved to be very responsive and helpful, enhancing our experience. However, we encountered a few minor issues: 1) We discovered and eliminated several small cockroaches in the kitchen, particularly around the garbage cabinet. 2) The dining chairs were deteriorating, leaving lots of tiny pieces on our clothing when we used them. 3) The non-functional hot tub was a surprise upon arrival. Although mentioned in the listing, we missed it and so suggest making it more prominent, perhaps in the title, as the photos and description led us to expect a working hot tub. This could also be Airbnb's fault, since I specifically selected the "hot tub" option during my search, clearly indicating a preference for a property with a working hot tub.

I booked Renee’s place last minute because another Airbnb cancelled. I’m so glad we did because this place was beautiful and we had such a wonderful time. Renee was incredibly responsive and kind in all her messages. We bought our two month old and a cot was provided which made our lives easier. The kitchen was also pretty well stoked and the beds were super comfy. I think this is an incredible stay considering how affordable it is. Renee truly saved our holiday. Thank you!

I can't thank Tracey enough when it came to booking her beautiful home. I made this booking last minute for family travelling last minute from the UK. Tracey answered all of my questions promptly and was more than accommodating. The family absolutely loved the house and some are planning to try and book in the future.

Brett was an awesome host. Was always super responsive and helpful. His cottage was such a relaxing time for my family and I. The backyard was very private and great for my dog to run around in. We enjoyed fishing, canoeing, and using the fire pit!

Responsive host, peaceful environment. Lots of wildlife and beautiful cottage!

I frequently stay at Airbnb’s and travel a lot. I would say this is the best host I’ve ever had. Super friendly, super nice, super knowledgeable of the area and gave great suggestions. The home was unique and very nice. I will definitely be going back next time I’m in the area.

A beautiful house, great to host a large group of friends as it has great capacity. Highly recommended.

I came to this beautiful spot with my wife and five-year-old son in September. Our cottage was perfect for what we needed -- and we all appreciated the AC and hot shower! Our son had a blast playing on the playground, the beach, and activity room. He cried when it was time to leave! We all enjoyed the beautiful lake and the different water toys available, in particular the stand-up paddleboards. My wife and I had never used those before and had a ball! As huge Tragically Hip fans, we loved the various nods to the Hip on the property. Bobcaygeon itself is incredibly charming. We had a wonderful, relaxing time and it was terrific value for money. I'd recommend this to anyone and hope to return soon with some friends. Thanks for such a fantastic family experience!

Beautiful and peaceful lakeside cottage! We had a great stay. Host was extremely responsive and helpful. It was very spacious and had good amenities.

Beautiful place! Can’t wait to return. The fishing is fantastic here! Thank you so much Stephanie you are a fantastic host !!!

This was a lovely getaway. Kevin was so easy to communicate with and the place was in good shape. We had just had a pretty serious snowfall and the time was taken to not only plow the driveway but clear all decking, stairs and even the walk to the hot tub. I can’t tell you how much appreciated that was! The ability to bring our pups was also very appreciated. They highly enjoyed the group of turkeys that took a tour down the driveway while we were there! We’ll be renting again.

We had an amazing time. 4 adults and 4 kids and two dogs. Check in was super easy. Host checked in upon arrival to make sure we had everything we needed. Cottage was private and clean. Cottage was completely equipped with everything you need. Location is great. The water is clear and shallow for quite a while so great for kids. Lots to do in the area. We will be back next year! :)

we had a lovely, relaxing weekend at Daniella's place! The space was beautiful, clean, thoughtful and well stocked! the hosts thought of everything to make us feel at home. Everything is there with intention, and the location is unmatched...Photos don't do this little gem justice, will definitely be back!

My family couldn’t have asked for a better getaway. As far as bang for your buck goes you can’t do better. Andrew and Hali were exceptional hosts, very responsive and helpful anytime we had questions. Everything was very clean, bedrooms and furniture throughout were very comfortable. My boys would absolutely love to come back, and we’d highly recommend this place for anyone wanting a seamless experience on a beautiful lake. Thank you for such a great experience!

South Bay Cottage is truly a perfect and lovely lake getaway. Drive off the main road and into your own private cove outfitted with everything you need for a wonderful stay. Once inside, the view of Lake Stoney can be seen through the large windows from anywhere in the main room. The sunsets and starry skies were so peaceful - and even though locals told us it was unusual - we actual had an amazing view of the Northern Lights! We loved that this cottage included all the linens we needed and lots of areas to get cozy and read a book - including the extra-special gazebo. While the kitchen area is small - it is well equipped with everything we needed. Close to great hikes (Petroglyph Provincial Park, High Falls at Eels Creek, Warsaw Caves, and many others.) Also great to explore the area's great golf courses, Wanderlight Alpaca walks (a must do), Peterborough Pete's hockey, Peterborough theatre, and amazing restaurants in Lakefield (Loon, Cassia, and more). Melissa was a wonderful host!

We had a great time at Heather's place. The cottage was decorated beautifully. We love the hot tub and the backyard lighting around it. Everything was set up with a timer and it's pretty good for us to not have to worry about it. It's so good to have two firepits and the supplies to start the fire. The local convenient store is a short drive and has everything we need when we ran out of supplies. Coffee, hot chocolate, tea and all the snacks are nice treats. It is very cozy and the surrounding is gorgeous. The heater in the house can be quite annoying at night for someone staying on the daybed. We were warned about the noise in the instructions but couldn't do much about it or change the sleeping arrangement. The beds in all rooms are all very comfortable and if the heater issue can be somehow addressed, that would be much better. (the heater just turns on and off way too frequently) Overall, we had a great time! Heather and Michael are very friendly and responsive hosts. Thank you!

"Our stay at Jesse’s place was exceptional from start to finish. Jesse was incredibly responsive and attentive, answering all of our questions almost immediately and going above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. The house itself was exactly as described—beautifully designed with multiple relaxing areas to enjoy the breathtaking views. One of the highlights was sitting outside by the fireplace, overlooking the lake, which made for a truly magical experience. The entire house was impeccably clean and well-maintained. Jesse's hospitality and helpfulness made our visit truly unforgettable. We highly recommend staying here!"

Michael and Margaret are great hosts. We head up to their place every winter now for a little cottage country escape. They are super responsive and helpful. Their place is warm, cozy, and has a great hot tub under the stars (and under the snow if you’re lucky). We’ll be back again!

Khristel is a fantastic and responsive host. The property is beautiful. Our family had a great stay.

My partner and I had a wonderful long weekend at Krista's bunkie. It was so warm and cozy, a perfect place to hunker down over a snow stormy weekend. Krista was very friendly and responsive, she reached out a couple times throughout our stay to ensure all was well and to see if we needed anything. The bunkie is fully stocked with all the essentials you'd need(paper towels,Kleenex,salt,pepper,olive oil etc.)and is super homey. Overall, super peaceful and relaxing stay- Highly recommend!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at your beautiful cottage. The setting, surrounded by the tranquil lake, was truly magical — a peaceful escape from the everyday hustle. The cottage had every amenity one could possibly ask for. The attention to detail in the decor was exceptional — every corner seemed to hold a story, filled with charm, character, and warmth. We loved exploring all the thoughtful and unique touches added over the years; it really made the place feel sacred. Our host , Daniel, was very kind and patient . He always responsded promptly and ensured our stay was smooth and comfortable. Thank you Daniel for sharing your family’s special place with us — it was an experience we’ll cherish.

Our family of 4 spent the Easter weekend at Kelly's Cabin for a relaxing getaway and WOW.. It was the best Cabin we have ever stayed at. It was pristine and felt just like home. there was nothing that we missed at her place. In fact we regretted not booking it for a longer stay! The kids just did not want to leave. The washroom was clean and smelled fresh. The beds were super comfy and clean. the kitchen is perfectly placed in the Cabin and had all the amenities that one could think of. Even for the BBQ, which we enjoyed next to the fire pit. Kelly herself is a spectacular host who is very responsive and kind. We will definitely be booking this place again and might just make it our place for an annual getaway!

Really enjoyed it definitely coming back
