EC1 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 (edited) Good Afternoon all! I'm currently being given a task to find a cottage for my family, which wants to go to a cottage starting on August 23rd. There's a few specific criteria that my dad wants for this trip: - Spacious Environment - We are not packing 5 people in one room. 2 or 3 rooms would be perfect. - A nice restaurant nearby - Not a burger joint, but doesn't need to be one where you need to dress up to go to either. - Within 2.5 hours from Toronto. Preferably Kawartha's or Kingston and area. Muskoka's are also possible, Although I don't like fishing in more than 15FOW. You guys are free to recommend anything, as I'm open to any suggestions. Heck, If you want to rent out your own cottage to my family for a week, we'll promise to put a few holes into a few fish's mouths, and make sure it looks exactly the same as the week prior! Thanks in Advance ! Edited August 4, 2010 by EC1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tknohpy Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Perfect Vue resort may have some, we are on Hay Bay just outside Napanee. www.perfectvueresort.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torco Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 try ontariocottagerentals.com cottagesontheweb.com vrbo.com But it will be tough, its late to be booking and its still prime season that week. We booked a family cottage for 1 week/year for about 8 of us and we typically book very early in the new year as good cottages go fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyGuy5 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 (edited) Sounds to me like Elmhirst Resort on Rice Lake would be perfect. Shallow lake, good restaurant, variety of sizes of cottages and 90 minutes from Toronto. www.elmhirst.com Edited August 4, 2010 by flyguy5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EC1 Posted August 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Thanks for all the details everyone! Will be making a call out to practically all of them to hopefully find myself one with vacancy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adempsey Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Try the trip builder at NOTO - http://www.noto.ca/BuildaTrip.cfm I'd also say that Elmhirst Resort will fit your requirements. I think it's overpriced, but it's one of the only cottage resorts my wife will go with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
