Beautiful house located at a nice location. Equipped with all the essentials. Games room with different kind of games ping pong, pool table kept us all engaged. Scott was very helpful and quick in answering my queries. We all had a great time.

We had a wonderful weekend at the cottage! Scott was extremely helpful and quick with answering any questions. The house had everything we needed and lots of fun with the pool table, table tennis, board games etc... Definitely would recommend and go back!!

The cottage was beautiful and clean. Lots of games for kids and adults. Riverfront with canoe being provided. Overall it was the best and worth the money.

Such a great spot! Very spacious, clean, lots of fun and right on the water! Homestead a lot of people and had everything we needed. Comfortable beds, Scott answered questions right away. Pool table was a hit! Will probably want to rebook!

We had a great stay at Scott's cottage. It was rainy for most of our weekend so we took full advantage of the pool table and ping pong table. We had 11 overnight guests so the value can't be beat! The kitchen was stocked with the essentials and had enough of everything for our large group. The kitchen and bathrooms could have been a little cleaner but for the price we paid we were more than satisfied with the cottage! Scott was very quick to respond to all our requests during our stay. He also allowed us an early check-in and check-out which was much appreciated!

It was a great view behind the house and extremely spacious, we had a great time with the pool table! Fully stocked kitchen and also a propane bbq! Will visit again!

We had babies and younger childern in our party. the early check-in and later check-out was really appreciated.

Our stay at Scott's cottage was great - it was a large, clean space with plenty of room for activities. He was easy to get in contact with and gave us both early check in and check out without any additional cost. Would definitely recommend to others.

A truly lovely spot in the country! I am in this area every summer enroute to visit kids at camp and have yet to find such a terrific spot to stay. It's so well designed/decorated and so convenient. Just a short drive off the highway into a quiet sanctuary on the river. The gardens, screened in room and dock are great sitting areas and you must kayak or canoe a bit to appreciate the setting. Margot is a terrific host and conversationalist. So glad to have met her. Bedrooms were beautiful and comfy and breakfast was delicious. Don't hesitate to book a stay here!

Margot was an exceptional host, such a welcoming lady. She replied to our inquiry quickly. Her place was everything the listing states and much more. It's so quiet and peaceful at her place! She was so accommodating to every need even when our plans changed a bit at the last minute. The bed was comfy and the room had everything we needed. Breakfast in the screened garden room was delicious, and her homemade granola was fantastic. The river was great for swimming. Margot made recommendations for local places to eat and see which was so helpful. We wish we had more time to stay!

Margot is very kind and easy-going, and her cooking is delicious! We had such a relaxing time at Skootamatta House. The house is very comfortable and nicely decorated; the grounds are gorgeous, the river was fun to explore, and her two kitties are delightful! There's lots of great restaurants in the nearby little towns, and a great bakery/antique shop in Madoc that I highly recommend! (It does get a little buggy, being so close to the river, so remember to bring bug spray when you visit!) We had such a great time, and would definitely come back again!

Margot is very kind. The house is very comfortable, clean and nicely decorated.

Margot is a fabulous host and has a wonderful spot on the river. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for some R&R.

Je cherchais un endroit entre Toronto et Montréal pour passer une fin de semaine avec ma conjointe. J'ai choisi la maison skootamata pour la photo avec la rivière. Dès que je suis entré j'ai compris qu'on avait trouver l'endroit idéal. C'est beau, c'est authentique, il y a des colibris, une superbe cascade en bas de la rivière... et Margot.

Me and a good friend stayed at Margot's for 1 evening after a camping trip in Bon echo park and had a wonderful magical time. Communication with Margot was fast and easy and she was very accommodating. We arrived a bit early and she made us snacks, we then relaxed all evening in the tranquil beauty of her house... Complete with cats, hummingbirds, frogs and fireflies. We opted out of dinner there but after waking up the next morning from an incredible nights sleep to a gourmet breakfast and coffee we Regretted not signed up for dinner! We played some games and canoed down the river and felt warm from the warmth of Margot's natural hospitality. It was an absolute pleasure staying at skootamatta house and I can't wait to return one day again! Thanks again for everything Margot!

Merci beaucoup à Margot de nous avoir accueilli chaleureusement dans son cottage merveilleusement décoré. Chaque matin nous avons eu droit à un petit déjeuner "pantagruellique". La maison est superbe et située dans un cadre idyllique près d'une petite rivière et le tout très boisé. Dommage que nous ne fassions que passer car nous n'avons pas pu en profiter pleinement. Thank you very much Margot

Exactly as advertised. Tracey went out of her way to accommodate our needs.

Tracey was extremely friendly and helpful! The place was exactly as shown on the posting, it was very clean and had all the comfort of a home. Tracey made sure that we had everything we needed and was always there to answer any questions that we had. This was a perfect place to spend with family and enjoy a relaxing weekend. Our family had a wonderful time and we would love to stay here again! Thanks again Tracey!

I highly recommend this cottage for your family. It is comfortable and cozy. The owner is an excellent communicator. The cottage is very well equipped. Beds are comfortable too!

We traveled with two small kids and found this place to have everything we needed for a quiet, comfortable stay. My 5 year old didn't want to leave and asked if we could stay there forever. The hosts were warm and welcoming as well.

Tracey was a wonderful host. One of the nicest people I have ever had the privilege of speaking too. Her communication was incredible, making sure we had everything we needed. The cottage is better in person than the pictures if you can believe it. I would certainly stay with Tracey again and would strongly recommend anyone else to do the same.

Great stay for anyone looking to get away from city life. The cottage was newly renovated, very clean and modern interior. Outside just as nice, with an amazing lake view from the dock. More importantly, host Tracey is very accommodating and goes above and beyond to ensure her guests has everything they need (thank you!).

Tracey was a dream to deal with - attentive to details, friendly, and very accommodating! This cottage is more like a small new house - it's very clean and retained heat well on an evening that got down to 12 degrees - toasty inside! My kids played with the dog, the trampoline, the sandbox - and we drove into town to the skateboard park and adventure playground...great weather and a great time! The water level was down and the algae high so swimming wasn't as great that weekend, but with some rainfall that'll come back. My boys didn't seem to mind a bit, and swam back and forth to the raft 'til they were tired. Marshmallow roast, hikes, tree house, we crammed a lot in our short stay but enjoyed it thoroughly. Many thanks, Tracey! The Gardners.

Tracey was fantastic! She made us feel right at home, and made arrival and departure run very smoothly. The place was very clean and spacious for the weekend. A great girls weekend getaway!

Mike is an excellent host and the space is absolutely amazing. The decor, ambience and overall experience was incredible. I would go back again in a heartbeat!

Roslin Hall is absolutely beautiful! Quiet, very clean, and cozy.

Pure relaxation is all I can say. Roslin Hall was the epitome of tranquility. My daughter and I will definitely be coming back for a stay. I must say it was especially nice to have a fully outfitted kitchen. They really thought of everything. If you're looking to get out of the city and regenerate those batteries...this is definitely the place to go.

There is little as sweet as waking up in beautiful Roslin Hall to the sound of cows grazing just over the garden fence. Loved it.

This is a lovely quiet and superbly outfitted spot. We stayed with another couple for a weekend, and had a great balance of *together time* in the soaring main space while they also had privacy sleeping in the cabin. We also played crocket (!) in the backyard, which was a ton of fun. The fireplace kept things cozy while we drank wine at night. It's about an hour's drive to Prince Edward County, so we spent an afternoon exploring but staying in Roslin for the evenings (who wants to drive in the dark, am I right, ladies?). What else? Our friends appreciated the heaters in the cabin (guest cottage) and it was truly private. They were a little spooked at night, but there is nothing frightening about the backyard or the space. It was strangely soothing to wake up and hear the neighbouring cows and their murmuring MOOs.

Really enjoyed our stay here. Unique, secluded converted old church decorated and equipped with all the comforts of home. Would certainly go back.

Michael is a wonderful host. Very fast with communication and definitely went the extra mile to confirm that everything was satisfactory. The space was absolutely incredible. Beautifully designed and so peaceful. We had a fantastic stay. Highly recommend

Roslin Hall is a true gem. Its charming country chapel exterior belies its cool, stylish interior tastefully kitted out with all modern conveniences. Its neighbours - there aren't many - are working farms and local residences, so it is not remotely touristy. The bright and airy space is welcoming and after a night there, it really does feel like your own place. Michael is a hands-on (via technology) host who is at the ready to answer any query. We packed as though we were heading to a cottage but our supplies were superfluous as there is a full kitchen with dishes, cutlery and cookware - even fresh cream and milk in the fridge (plus an array of condiments), plus lots of towels and soap - even laundry. The grounds are pretty and perfect for star-gazing, lounging and morning coffee. Drives to Prince Edward County and local wineries are picturesque and add to the charm. We look forward to returning and would highly recommend it for a short or long term stay.

Very welcoming and helpful :)

My room, the home, and the distance to Belleville were everything I expected. Colleen, Mike, Matthew and Rochelle were great hosts and made me feel welcomed immediately. I spent 4 weeks with the family when I started a new job in Belleville and needed temporary accommodation while looking for a permanent one. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. I even needed a ride to and from Belleville for work when I had car troubles and Colleen and Rochelle were happy to help. I truly loved my stay. Thank you to the Kerbys for making me happy at Kerbyhollow.

We have been made to feel very welcome at Mike and Colleen's house. A very friendly and relaxed atmosphere. After staying in motels for weeks this has been a great change of pace. Whether you are traveling or working locally, I can highly recommend staying here.

Colleen and family were very accommodating. The bedroom, sitting room and bathroom which i had privare use of were clean and bright. Their farmhouse is on a paved road, easy access from the highway and was a quiet and beautiful country setting.

Everything was perfect! Even though I was only there a short time to sleep for one night, Colleen was very friendly and helpful and made the stay great. Would be happy to come back.

Colleen's place was lovely. Beautiful country farmhouse set in idyllic scenery. Very friendly and accommodating, very clean. I worked long hours while I stayed, but never had any issues coming in late (quietly) and leaving super early in the morning. All her animals are very friendly :)

It could not have been a better welcome from Colleen and Mike from the very first contact to my arrival. The room was exactly as described. The bed was beautifully made up and extremely comfortable. Small touches like a vase of flowers and interesting magazines completed the welcome. Even the dogs were welcoming!

-such a welcoming, hospitable household -spacious and clean -delicious fresh eggs -fresh air … peaceful setting … great sleep … and I thank you for my restful stay. Time stands still out here, when watching the stars. May your pumpkins grow plump!

Doug and his wife are great hosts! The room was exactly the same as the one on the picture and very clean as well as the bathroom, breakfast was delicious !We had a wonderful -but too short unfortunetly- time here :)

Thank you so much for the opportunity to stay at your beautiful cottage. We had a lovely family weekend enjoyed by all in a comfortable and relaxing setting with a fabulous view. We particularly enjoyed the kayaks and noodles/inner tube as well as the hot tub! Nancy and Jeff left a lovely welcome basket with goodies and other information which was also much appreciated. We would love to come back again next year.

Nancy and Jeff were wonderful hosts that made us feel very welcome. The cottage is BEAUTIFUL, best amenities, the water and kayaks were great, the hot tub is a HUGE plus and we had literally everything we needed. They were gracious hosts in their wonderful home and this space is exactly as described and more! I will definitely be coming back with my family again! Thank you so much Nancy and Jeff!

Everything was perfect. I would go back anytime.

The place was great with many facilities with a lovely basket of goodies waiting for us. Nice keurig coffee machine too!!. Beautiful lake with kayaks to enjoy the surrondings. Nancy was very prompt and responsive with all our questions. Would highly recommend and would stay again.

This place was amazing!! It is the best equipped summer home we have ever been too. Anything you could need for summer fun, from the huge front yard to play sports that require a lot of room to the many sitting areas with their own cool vibe, the hot tub was excellent and the dock area was great for swimming and catching fish and just enjoying the sun. If you forgot anything at home don't worry, they will have it there for you. The welcome basket was a nice touch. I can't see how anyone would ever be disappointed staying at Nancy and Jeff's

Our stay at Newton House was terrific. Hosts Will and Tammy have beautifully restored this elegant Victorian home in the heart of tweed. We enjoyed their hospitality and knowledge of the area and the history of the house and Tweed. The rooms are lovely and comfortable and breakfast was delicious. A perfect location and an easy walk to Stoco lake, Moira River and all of downtown, we highly recommend Newton House for a 5 star stay!

Our short stay at newton house was fantastic. The house is beautiful and our hosts, Will and Tammy, were full of information on its past and their restoration of it. They are a friendly conversational couple. We both had a great sleep and the breakfast provided was delicious.

The best! Beautiful home, kind hosts and one of the most delicious breakfasts we've ever had! It was so nice to have the private half-bath in our room - an unexpected luxury! Would definitely stay here again if we are back in Tweed!

A beautiful classic home filled with charming antiques. Breakfast was great, too.

Will and Tammy were warm and friendly hosts. They gave great suggestions on local dining and shopping. Their home is a beautiful, historic house lovingly renovated and located on a quiet street. We enjoyed a hearty breakfast. Overall it was a wonderful experience. We highly recommend Newton House.

Newton house went above and beyond to make sure that we had the best experience possible. They were reliable, friendly and helpful. The room was impeccable and the house was decorated beautifully. I highly recommend staying at Newton house with Will and Janet to anyone looking for a pleasant and memorable vacation in Tweed.

We really enjoyed our stay our hosts we're welcoming. The room is nice and comfy breakfast was delicious. I would totally recommend people to stay there :) Thank you Melina and Laurie

Will left a note for us on the door and came to greet us as soon as we called. We had a tour of the home and were welcomed. Will made our weekend getaway even more memorable by telling us about an Elvis concert that was happening later that day and arranged tickets for us. The Newton house is an amazing old Victorian home that has been tastefully preserved and decorated by Will & Tammy. The home alone is worth the visit. Tammy prepared a yummy quiche for breakfast and spent some time with us sharing their B&B experiences. We would highly recommend Newton house to anyone considering staying in this area..

Brad is a hero! He saved my father in law and brother in law who flipped the canoe and panicked. Luckily Brad rushed out with his boat to help them before the situation escalated. Aside from that he was a great host and went above and beyond to make sure we were settled in and had everything we needed. The sunset and views from the cottage were beautiful and the cottage was as pictured. We hope to come back next year!

We had a relaxing and peaceful time at this cottage. There was an incredible view with gorgeous sunsets and an awesome area, all the neighbors were super nice. The cottage was very private and had tons of space for our group (4 adults and a baby) Brad was available for all my questions by phone, and his father also lived a few houses down so we had him close by. The water was very warm but water shoes should be worn. There were 3 boats available for us to use, and the kitchen was great to cook full meals ( and a BBQ ) a heads up for people with babies, there is no bathtub, just a stand up shower and also bring your own towels and linens. Overall it was amazing, we love the area and the town close by was GREAT! we got some homemade fudge and cookies to bring home. Thanks again! Franca

The place was great! It was better than it looked in the pictures. The kitchen was well provided for and the bed we slept in was comfortable. We would return in a heartbeat. Thanks Brad!

The cottage was exactly as described, nice clean, right on the lake. Our stay was very pleasant and relaxing. Brad was very responsive to all our requests. He let us use boats at no extra charge and they were ready for us at the dock. Definitely recommend this cottage for a relaxing family vacation!

We had a great experience at Brad's cottage. The place was clean and spacious enough for 6 adults and a baby. Brad, who lives next door, was helpful when we needed him, but never intrusive. The lake was beautiful for canoeing and paddleboarding (rented in Peterborough), and there were a variety of spaces to hangout so you never felt crowded onto the dock. For the evening there's a great firepit and Brad can even get wood for you. The town is about 5 minutes away and has everything you need (Foodland, LCBO, Beer Store, etc). It was a great 4 days.

I rented Brad's place with 3 friends for the Canada Day long weekend. We had an awesome time - the cottage was great, and easily slept the four of us with three separate bedrooms. The space was quite private with a nice dock and fire pit outside. Brad was an excellent host and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommended.

The host canceled this reservation 3 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We stayed Labour Day long weekend from Friday - Monday and Brad was a great host! He met us at the house and explained everything that needed explaining and answered any questions we had. He also lives next door so if we needed anything he was right there, but he also just let us be for the weekend too! The cottage was lovely!!! Loved the view from the living room and the main bedroom and everything was clean! The cottage was really spacious, we were 5 women, and the 3 bedrooms suited us just perfectly! Lots of cutlery, plates, pots and pans, and glassware available and in great condition so we didn't have to worry about bringing any of that. The sunsets from the main porch and the dock were stunning and the lake and surrounding area is so peaceful with the town of Madoc being only a 5 mins drive. It's a must visit, if only for the awesome pastries and Ice Coffee at the bakery. There was another patio set on the other side of the house, but we chose to just eat in the cottage with the gorgeous view of the lake and the fire pit location was awesome!!! Definitely recommend this cottage and am hoping to make it back there in the fall, especially when the leaves start changing colour!

Tracey was an excellent host. She bent over backwards to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The cottage was excellent for the price. The dock was great to swim and fish from. Our family had a wonderful weekend away.

Virginia was awesome!! I arrived at 9pm, and she was ready to greet me. I had the choice of three rooms, and she provided a fan, some cookies and an ice cream bar before I went to bed. I had a shower the next morning, and Virginia was kind enough to provide some orange juice and cake! I also had a chance to play with Kiki ... such a cute kitty! I highly recommend anyone who is in the area to stay here. Thanks Virginia!

Great experience, such an adorable and welcoming place! We brought our little dog and there was a fenced in yard so she could roam around and explore. We had to wake up super early, but was surrounded by nature and sounds of birds chirping when we woke (we slept with the windows open). Would definitely come back!

Virginia was very welcoming, she made our first Airbnb a great experience and memorable. My 14 year old son was very thankful that Virginia lent him her laptop the whole evening (yes I purposely forgot to pack his laptop.) We will definitely come back here especially now my husband learned from Virginia that her place is a 2 minute drive to the a great fishing spot. Thank you Virginia

Virginia nous a très bien reçue, elle a tout fait pour que mes filles et moi soyons bien installés. elle a été une hôte très attentionnée. Le B & B est une maison authentique au décor d’antan, confortable avec tout l’équipement nécessaire.

A terrific stay. Great hosts (and a cute little dog - and an alleged cat☺️). Beautiful house, with comfortable bed. They made sure my disabled wife was comfortable, and our dog loved the house and yard. I look forward to going back, and would gladly recommend Actinolite BnB for a great place to stay.

Virginia greeted me as I approached on my motorcycle. She afforded me a place to park the motorcycle in a sheltered place as rain was predicted. Virginia and her husband Ivan were helpful in pointing out tourist attractions and a place were I could get a map of Ontario and gave me an interesting history of how they came to establish Actinolite B&B and their work (especially Ivan) in restoring this old property. The accommodations were comfortable despite no air conditioning and the company was very pleasant. Next time, I'm in the Actinolite-Tweed area, I look them up again.
