I can’t say enough about Dunromin Cottages by the Lake and their fantastic cottages. Our cottage was so cute and the soaker tub was a nice surprise. The pictures do not show how spacious the cottages are and the community room was a bonus on our rainy night. The views are amazing and the water and fishing was so much fun. With all the fun we had, it was very reasonably priced and a family can still get away and make memories. We will be back and thank you again.

From our arrival to our checkout, the staff at Dunromin Cottages by the Lake was gracious and made us feel welcome. The cottage was lovely, super clean, renovated, had everything we needed, the property had bikes for our kids to use, canoes, beautiful water they swam in, lots of space for playing and overall great. We will definitely visit again this summer as it is a perfect spot for a quick drive from Toronto (1.5 hours). Thanks again for having us!

A group of 7 friends and I just spent an amazing weekend at Dunromin Cottages by the Lake. The cottage was the perfect size for all 8 of us to live comfortably. We spent the weekend relaxing by the lake and enjoyed every minute of it. This cottage exceeded all of our expectations and we really enjoyed the lake, canoes and fire pit. The staff was extremely tentative, helpful and kind with everything and anything we needed while we stayed. Thank you for the amazing weekend!!

My husband and I stayed at Cottage #1 and we had an amazing time! Everything was super clean and the location was perfect! We enjoyed canoe rides, loved the view of the water (which was just steps from our cottage), and even used the fire pit one night. The cottage itself is cozy and has everything you could possibly need. The best part is that they allow dogs! Our dog had a wonderful time and still trying to sleep off all the excitement! We can’t wait to stay here again!

It was an absolute pleasure hosting Nelia and her family!  We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed yourselves and hope to see you all again!  Thank you for choosing Dunromin Cottages by the Lake.

Nelia Melo - 5 Star

My siblings and I wanted to book a place where we could all be together without being cramped or in a hotel with no shared space to eat, play and enjoy a lake together. We are a family of 17 and counting. Although my parents are of older generation and were reluctant to leave their homes, they were pleased once they arrived. Our cottages were close and easy to join meals outdoors. They were clean and well equipped. The lake is just a few steps away with water toys for kids and grown ups alike. We enjoyed jumping off the dock, fishing, paddle boat rides, and much more. The large grassy area was great for all our lawn toys and added space for the kids to play freely. Thank you Dunromin Cottages for making our stay easy, comfortable and enjoyable. We have memories that will last a lifetime.

We had a great stay at Dunromin Cottages by the Lake! The place is clean and newly renovated. It actually smells good and felt like home.
We didn’t want to leave, especially our children as there were lots of things to do. My 1.5 year old was busy with the outdoor toys and running around the grassy area. My 8 year old was busy swimming, playing ball and biking. Us adults had fun shooting basketball, playing volleyball, barbecuing, swimming and biking. Rainy days we watched satellite TV!! Thank you, we will come back for sure!

My family and I had the pleasure of staying at Dunromin Cottages by the Lake last weekend. We were staying in Cottage # 6 which was apparently the only one not fully renovated. I don’t think any of us would have even known.

It had a gorgeous updated bathroom and that perfect “cottage feel” we were looking for. All the beds were super clean and comfortable! The kitchen was stocked with all the utensils you would need to cook anything indoor or outdoor - having the option to do both was great! The BBQ worked wonderfully as well! 

The property itself is in a great spot in the Kawarthas and on a beautiful lake. It wasn’t too far from the city either which I loved. 

They have canoes and a paddle boat you are able to take out. There’s a gorgeous island to paddle around or a lake to explore and fish on. 

Everyone in my family agreed that as soon as we arrived Alex (the host) made us feel right at home, himself and his business partner Mike, are both incredibly friendly and accommodating guys. 

There are two fire pits that everyone using the cottages can use, it was great to get to meet other people who were staying in other cottages - all very friendly people as well. 

You can tell that the property and cottages are very well taken care of. It’s a great atmosphere for an escape from the city. 

Over the entire weekend we were there, I think one of the things I heard most was “we need to come back here for sure!” Or “this should be our regular spot”. And we definitely will be!  

Thank you so much for accommodating our family and giving us the great atmosphere for us to make memories! We can’t wait to come back and make more. :)

You guys are absolutely amazing! It was my second, and won’t be my last, time staying with you. The cottages are great, updated, very clean and comfortable.  The grounds are extremely well maintained and have beautiful views. The staff are extremely helpful, approachable and friendly - second to none! 

Over the past 15 years I have chosen different spots to spend a week/weekend during the summer, but after staying at Dunromin Cottages by the Lake they are the best and I intend to keep coming back.

Thank you again for being extremely hospitable! I look forward to seeing all of you again soon.

Just got back from spending the long weekend and had an awesome time! Hubby was over the moon with all the bass fishing. I was in the love with our cottage...stayed in #3 “Pine” very “country cottage chic”. Our daughter loved the playground and throwing rocks on the dock. While Grandma enjoying some R&R on the dock looking at the stunning lake view. Can’t wait to come back for a second visit next year!!

Had an amazing/relaxing time here. The cottage we rented was just the perfect fishing getaway for the weekend! It was clean, simple and efficient! The owners are super nice and very friendly. We felt very welcome which is incredibly important to us going to a place for the first time! We had the fishing boats one day and the pontoon the next which was amazing for a perfect tan to end the weekend. We are definitely bringing up the kids next time as this trip was just about us. They had a play yard for kids and a fire pit close to the water to end the night to look up at the stars. Without a doubt I recommend this place!
