We’ve now visited Margaret’s place twice, and each time has truly felt like coming home. From soothing lake views to all the thoughtful comforts Margaret provides, it’s easy to relax and unwind here. The little treat she left for us was the cherry on top. We already can’t wait for our next visit—this place means so much to us!

The best place to end our camping for the summer, peaceful and quiet it was raining and cold but we still had a great time, we manage to canoe even windy, rode the bike and kayak the day we left, the bunkie its so cute and clean plus a welcome treat from the great host Margaret.
Highly recommend , definitely we going back.

My partner and I really enjoyed our stay in the main cabin. We were able to use the kayaks to explore the lake, we built a nice fire, cooked on the outdoor grill, stargazed and went birding on the property. It was very serene. Margaret was very kind and welcoming as well. We highly reccomend this rental.

We stayed for one night and really enjoyed our time. The place was peaceful and well set up. Even though Margaret was away, everything we needed was provided. We had fun cycling, kayaking, and making s’mores by the fire. Overall, it was a wonderful and fun stay!

Loved everything about our stay. The cabin is clean and everything you need to have a great time (e.g. cooking essentials, water play toys, bicycles, games, firewood, and even the mosquito repellants) is provided.
Have already recommended friends and family and will definitely be back in future.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful property.

Great spot for a short getaway. The lake is peaceful and perfect for kayaking, being able to utilize the neighbour's floating dock in the middle of the lake was a nice bonus as it was perfect for swimming and relaxing in the heat of the day. For any hikers, the Bruce trail is only about 20 minutes away. Would recommend Hoggs Falls conservation area as an access point, which also has lots of shorter looped hike options and is a nice little side trip. Plenty of firewood provided and the port-a-potty is the deluxe model.

We were fortunate to have Margaret’s property all to ourselves and loved the serene quiet of Townsend lake! From other reviews, sounds like Margaret is lovely host when on the property, which we didn’t experience first hand.
It’s in an ideal location, close to charming towns and beautiful nature. And the lake was perfect for kayaking, there’s even a dock you can boat to for swimming! Margaret provided everything you’d need very thoughtfully. Just keep in mind, there’s no running water or electricity so pack smart!

We stayed for just one night, but it was such a fun and memorable experience! Everything exceeded our expectations. The cabin was cozy and well-equipped, with a stunning view and plenty of activities to enjoy on-site. Margaret and her friend were incredibly helpful and welcoming. We’ll definitely be coming back, highly recommended!!

Margaret was a warm and friendly host.
She helped us before we came, answered all our questions, and stayed helpful even after we arrived.
The bunkie was cozy and easy to sleep in. They offered fun games both indoors and outdoors. There was lots of firewood, so we could enjoy a bonfire at night.
This is a lovely place—quiet, welcoming, and full of good things. We hope to visit again soon!

We absolutely loved the cabin!
This place is a hidden gem with so much to offer—kayaking, canoeing, cycling, tubing, indoor games, books, and more. They’ve thoughtfully provided all the cooking equipment along with propane, making it super convenient. The property is well-maintained and very organized, and even the portable washroom was impressively clean. Margaret was incredibly kind and well-spoken—truly a wonderful host. Can’t wait to return!

Everything was lovely! The bunkie was comfortable, we had everything we needed, and Margaret was very helpful and accommodating. The property is situated on a lovely little lake, and it was so quiet at night. Depending on how picky you are, you may want your own pillows... But we did, so no issues there!

Margaret was a lovely host! Her space is nestled in the trees on a serene lake that’s just right for floating on a hot day. The little dining table in the woods made for a whimsical evening. Beautiful bird sounds in the morning and frogs in the evening. We would recommend this hip camp.

The site was beautiful. It was right on the water and the views were great. Bunkie was very cute and clean. Bathroom was very clean as well and had a sink. It has more of a cottage vibe as owners house is right beside but still very enjoyable. There is a nice little eating area with a bbq, as well as a nice fire pit near the water. Host was very friendly. Really enjoyed our stay.

I had such a lovely and relaxing getaway at this beautiful cabin by the water. The location is peaceful and serene, with stunning views and incredibly clean surroundings. One of my favorite spots was the shaded dining area—perfect for enjoying meals outdoors while taking in the view. The fire pit by the water added such a cozy and special touch in the evenings.
Our host, Margaret, was absolutely wonderful—so friendly, welcoming, and thoughtful. She really made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. I’ve already recommended this place to my friends, and I would definitely love to come back. It was the perfect escape from the city and a truly memorable stay!

I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better camping experience! The site was exactly as shown in the pictures—peaceful, quiet, and surrounded by nature. The host was incredibly warm and hospitable, always ready to help with anything we needed which made the experience even more enjoyable. The cabin was clean and cozy, and there was so much to do—biking, kayaking, campfires at night and enjoying stargazing under the clear night sky. Me and my friend really had a great time and would definitely come back and absolutely recommend it to anyone looking to unwind, enjoy the outdoors and waking up to the sound of birds every morning. Thank You so much Margaret for sharing your beautiful property!

Our time at Cedar Acres was full of the best surprises! This perfect little Cabin was equipped with cutlery and dishes, tools to Bbq, games, propane and cleaning supplies. The pictures don’t feature her shed which contained 5 bikes, croquet, badminton, fishing rods, lifejackets of all sizes and more! And tons of firewood! We enjoyed kayaking along the clear water maybe 3-5ft deep max which was incredibly still and peaceful just you and the sounds of nature. But best of all is how attentive and thoughtful Margaret is. She had really thought of everything for our stay to be the best it can be, thank you for everything! We had a blast:)

This place is so much more than you can imagine. Margaret is attentive and has thought of everything. The lake is perfect to kayak around in. So many supplies offered and the loo is more than an outhouse. It rained constantly (May 2-4!) and yet we had a perfect time. Beds are super comfy and even a solar light. Will be back again and again.

My family and I stayed here for a spontaneous camping night. We were welcomed with friendliness and a nice welcome sign and treats. Very clean property with room for some outdoor games. It had lots of activities for us to do! Canoeing, kayaking, fishing, lawn games. Two portable bbqs. The outhouse was beyond clean! Very happy with our stay. We would highly recommend this place for your summer adventures!

We had a fantastic stay at this cozy bunk ! The location was absolutely beautiful—peaceful, scenic, and the perfect getaway spot. We really enjoyed the bonfire in the evenings, which made for such a relaxing and memorable experience. The bunkie was well-stocked with plenty of sleeping bags, and we had everything we needed to cook our own meals. Margaret was sweet—super helpful and welcoming. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a nature escape with great amenities!
It gives glamping vibes for sure !!

Thank you for the most wonderful time. We had everything we had ever needed for our stay. Our host couldn't have been more accommodating / pleasant. She was absolutely wonderful. You could hike right along the property, along with canoe and kayaks to use at our leisure. The fire pit was immaculate to have a campfire watching the sunset over the lake. There was no question about wanting to rebook at a later time in the season as we enjoyed this piece paradise for us and our dogs to get away together.
