Beautiful Cottage
We stayed at this beautiful cottage recently for a weekend getaway. Check in instructions were clear and process was smooth. The cottage is beautiful and very well stocked with everything you need for a weekend away. We had a wonderful weekend filled with boating, swimming, campfires and pure relaxation. We would definitely recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a weekend away.

Summer getaway with kids
We had a lovely stay at Freddie's in July 2023. The cottage and bunkie are well kept and clean. There are all the amenities that you want at a cottage and other nearby activities, like the rapids and the beach. The only surprise to us was how close the neighboring cottages are and how busy the lake is. That being said, the property is private. Perfect cottage for our summer vacation and super fun for our kiddos! We'd love to visit again!

Beautiful place
We had a great time at this beautiful place! It is ideally situated between Algonquin Park and Huntsville on a quiet, relaxing lake. The small town of Dwight is a quick drive for supplies if you didn’t want to go to all the way to Huntsville (which is only 20-25 minutes away). The cottage and bunkie were clean, beautifully decorated and perfectly appointed. The kitchen was wonderfully organized & stocked with everything we needed and then some! We brought more than we needed to (all we really needed to bring was food and clothes). The lake is clean, sandy and shallow near the shore. Ideal for children and dogs. We really appreciated the flat lawn with a fire pit after having stayed at a cottage with multiple sets of stairs to get down to the water. We made use of the canoes, kayaks and paddle boards, all provided with the property. Definitely would recommend staying at Freddie’s to family and friends. Perfect family summer cottage time!

Fantastic cottage week!
Freddies was everything we hoped for when we booked it. The cottage was so cozy, comfortable and very clean, we didn't want to leave! We had access to both the main cottage and the bunkie which was perfect for our group - 2 families each with one child. The cottage is extremely well stocked and organized with all the cooking essentials as well as books, puzzles and games. The living space was really cozy for rainy days and the beds were also very comfortable. We loved the beach area and the dock and took advantage of the paddle boards, kayaks and canoes. The cottage is so close to Algonquin park that we were able to do some day hikes as well. Bridget and Will were very responsive, we were never left waiting for an answer on anything we asked. We loved our time at Freddies and hope to book again for next year!

"Stay as is"
Pictures are misleading, neither building are easily accessible for anyone who uses walker/cane. Besides the main bedroom being spacious - the other ones had inches to move around. There was a foul smell that came from the sinks and from the toilet 's (which had brown water). The grill was VERY old and could use an upgrade. The "bunk house" had a musty smell and some sort privacy for each doorway would have been nice. The dock was nice and so was the dinner table.

Thank you for your feedback. Our cleaners did not mention any sort of smell coming from drains/sinks and upon inspection from a septic company, we have found there to be no issues the septic system. Freddie’s is a cozy cottage, and at no point do we claim to be otherwise. Our rooms are small, but equipped with fresh linens, and comfortable beds. We believe our photos illustrate the size of Freddie’s appropriately, as well as the cottage’s accessibility. The bbq was replaced 2020 and the grills are replaced annually. Freddie’s is a true cottage, and our hope is that it is enjoyed and appreciated for what it is. A beautiful, clean, well appointed spot for families to enjoy as we have.

OXTONGUE LAKE STAY
The main cottage was lovely, the kitchen was beautiful and functional, we checked out the bunkie it also was perfect for another family/friends to stay. It place was great for our dogs, we really appreciated that there was a 3 foot fence on both sides of the property so we didn't have concerns that they would wander. The waterfront was really nice as well, the dock was great, Would have been nicer if there were steps down the front of the dock to access the water without walking through all the leaves etc that covered the lake bottom. Overall the place is a perfect getaway. We would definitely consider going again and recommending the place to our friends.

Great property but needs cleaning improvement
We were really looking forward to staying at the property and although it was tastefully decorated, kitchen was well equipped and the location was lovely the cottage cleanliness was not adequate. The hard surfaces in the kitchen and bathroom were marginally cleaned but kitchen shelving, bedrooms, bed frames and lamps were very dusty (a problem for those with asthma and allergies to dust), the floors were dusty (especially in corners and under beds). The windows were very dirty which we cleaned ourselves with the cleaning products provided and the mop for floors we went out to buy ourselves. Both door mats and kitchen mat were filthy. The only two hand towels provided were grey(they should be bleached), The queen bed mattress in the main cottage had a blood stain which is unacceptable. And the mattress/pillow covers heavily used and old. They didn’t smell very fresh at all. We were told that due to the Covid precautions everything would be freshly washed and replaced in between each guest. We went out and bought our own bedding. The living room carpet and couch covers smelled bad as well. We also found that the Bunkie was completely unusable due to the strong musty/damp smell, so I while my parents used the main cottage queen bedroom, my husband and I slept in the kids beds in the second bedroom. The patio chair cushions were filthy as if someone trampled them through mud. For the price per week the attention to cleanliness detail should be more attentive. I don’t understand how other reviews state that the property is clean, but upon our stay it was not.

We had a fantastic week at Freddie’s! The cottage was perfect for our group. It was very clean and well-stocked with everything we needed. We especially appreciated all of the boats and Lily Pad, the well-appointed kitchen, and the wonderful yard/waterfront. The bunkie provided lots of space for our group of 7 to spread out. And thank you for being dog-friendly! Highly recommend!

My family and I enjoyed a great week at Freddies. Our grandchildren loved the beach and spent many hours of fun playing in the water. The adults enjoyed using the paddle boards and kayaks to explore the lake. The cottage is stocked with everything you need and Will is a great host! Would highly recommend.

Excellent property in every way. We thoroughly enjoyed the Kayaks, Canoe and Paddle Boards, as well as Badminton on the grass. Best fire pit around with plenty of firewood. The main cottage has everything you could ever need and then some. Will was wonderful to deal with and we all left our week’s vacation with nothing but wonderful memories!

A truly incredible cottage retreat
This quintessential cottage far exceeded our expectations. Our hosts Will and Bridget, certainly put a great amount of energy into making this cottage not only beautiful but well appointed and very comfortable. From the minute we walked in the front door, we were mesmerized by all the great attention to detail and charm of every room, including the bunkie! The amazing design aesthetic and attention to small details is what truly sets this property apart from others. The kitchen was an absolute joy to cook in, and so well outfitted with everything imaginable! Every bedroom was cozy and very comfortable, making it hard to get up some mornings... However, the days we managed to be up early enough, we caught the stunning sunrise over the lake, and it truly took our breath away...just magical! We all appreciated the canoes, kayaks, and paddle boards, and I especially enjoyed sunbathing and relaxing on the lily pad... What an exquisite getaway, we miss it already, and can't wait to return! Thank you Will and Bridget for sharing your little gem with us, it was a lovely escape!

A perfect gem
This property is a perfect little gem. The house is so comfortable and cozy! The property comes equipped with all sorts of fun water toys and has a lovely extended dock. We were five adults and one small dog and between the bunkie and the main house we had so much space and were incredibly comfortable. Everything is so well maintained and we couldn’t have asked for a better spot to escape the city! Owner was lovely and kept an open line of communication. Would 100% stay here again. Thank you!!

A Week at Freddie’s
My family (5 adults, 1 newborn) could not have enjoyed our experience at this property any more than we did. The new renovations are beautiful, crisp, and provide a fantastic open concept. The bunkie is equally lovely and provides a great separate living and sleeping area. We used every water toy provided and particularly loved spending hours on the floating lily pad. We came across the listing due to the dog-friendly option and it was a perfect spot for our retrievers as well. The cottage is stocked with everything you need. 10/10 experience. Our family desperately wants to return!!

A wonderful getaway!
We loved our week at this property! It was clean, newly renovated and well appointed inside and out! The large deck overlooking the lake was amazing for outdoor dining and there were plenty of recreational amenities available, including kayaks, canoes and stand up paddle boards! The swimming was wonderful as was morning coffee on the dock! The proximity to Algonquin Park and Ragged Falls, provided the opportunity for some lovely day hikes. Thank you Will and Bridget for being welcoming hosts, we hope to be back at Freddie's again soon!

REVIEW AND EDIT before posting. Overall a good experience and we would return for another vacation.
PRIVATE for your review only before posting. Enjoyed our stay, wonderful to have a place to bring dogs. Location convenient to Algonquin, stores, and surrounding tourist areas. Cottage needed some TLC: upon arrival we cleaned windows, floors, rugs, replaced mildew shower curtain, added doorway mats in cottage and Bunkie - also scrubbed Bunkie fridge as it was full of mould, glued the laminate trim edging on bathroom countertop as it was hanging off. Left everything in a better condition than when we arrived. We appreciate it is difficult to keep up on these items. Loved the property, beach entrance to lake, use of kayaks, great firepit and well stocked supplies for cleaning, cooking and garbage. Need to correct advertised information regarding WI FI is it NOT available from next door Cloverleaf.

Beautiful Algonquin Highlands
Had a great time with my family at this cute cottage. It had everything we needed to enjoy a wonderful vacation. Very close to Algonquin Park and only an hour from Santa's Village. Cottage was exactly as pictured. Mornings on the deck were magical and kayak and canoes were put to good use. Thanks to the owners for providing a comfortable stay.

Perfect!
This cottage is just perfect for a great vacation. The lake is calm for canoing, kayaking, etc. It's minutes from Algonquin Park, the large town of Huntsville is a short drive, you can walk over the bridge for ice cream cones, and there is the excellent Dwight Market just down the road for great meats, fruits, vegetables and groceries. Also several hiking trails off all levels of difficulty stress within 5 to 20 minutes away.

Enjoyable stay at a beautiful lake
This cottage has everything. Every detail has been thought out and provided. My wife and I stayed for 3 weeks with the rest of our family joining in the middle. At one point we had 8 people and there was plenty of space. Oxtongue Lake is a paddler's dream. The dock is just a few steps from the cottage. The Bunkie is spacious and provided privacy for families with kids. We felt very comfortable there, not having to worry about kids being kids on vacation. Will provided kayaks, canoes and water toys, the kids had a blast. All safety equipment provided as well. Close to Algonquin Park, shopping and Huntsville is just 20 minutes away. We would definitely book again.

Perfect location for a family gathering !
It was a wonderful location - Children, grandchildren, and grandparents plus pets, all had a wonderful time with many treasured memories to take home ! It was ideal having the bunkie and cottage, giving some options for sleeping and play, as well as still being close to the water ! My favourite time was coffee on the dock in the morning. Early risers had time to enjoy the sunrise, watch the baby ducks and geese and do some fishing ! Driving down the lane to the cottage was through a picturesque little woodlot. The cottage was clean, comfortable and well stocked with every appliance needed,. Swimming, canoeing, kayaking and long walks were enjoyed by all. The evening favourite was the campfire overlooking the lake. It was a wonderful, relaxing week.. Would have liked to stay longer. We will definitely return for another Family Gathering next year !

Fabulous, peaceful, cozy oasis.
We had a wonderful two week stay at Freddie's cottage. We arrived through a small wooded area that muffles the sound of cars from the road. Cottage is rustic and cozy, a "don't take your shoes off" kind of place. Very well equipped kitchen. Wonderful touches to make you feel at home, including the "welcome" on the chalk board in the kitchen, and 3 vases with fresh flowers. Great and comfortable bunkie, equipped with mini fridge, microwave, as well as equipment for water activities (life jackets, first aid, toys, etc). Owners very conscientious and responsive to questions, and any issues/concerns. Wonderful to offer such a magical place to families traveling with pets, especially large furry dogs. Outside chairs and fire pit were so inviting, we used both each evening. Dock with Muskoka chairs a great place to welcome each day with coffee, wildlife and breathtaking sunrise. Kayaks provided were great fun to explore lake and surrounding areas. Canoe also available. Clothes line provided to dry swimsuits, towels, etc. Close proximity to Henrietta's for delicious baked goods, Dwight grocery for excellent food and superb meat counter. Only need to go into Hunstville for laundry. We didn't use the TV, or looked at newspapers. Freddie's Cottage is the perfect setting to completely disconnect from outside world. Hubby and I were even able to read numerous books during our stay-a rare indulgence. We had a wonderful two weeks, and have already reserved for next summer. Many thanks to Will, Bridget and Wes for sharing their slice of paradise with us. One suggestion: found ironing board but no iron. Would it be possible to have one in the future?

Wonderful Week at Oxtongue Lake Cottage
We all thoroughly enjoyed the coziness and location of this cottage and bunkie. The kitchen and bathroom were well equipped. Lots of hot water when required. Quiet and beautiful scene of Oxtongue Lake. We really enjoyed the kayaks and the lily pad with our grandchildren. This is a very family oriented rustic cottage. We all look forward to going back.
