Ideal Muskoka Retreat

My family and I had an incredible time at the Red Oaks. The cottage was spacious, clean, had all of the comforts of home and had a great view. We spent our days swimming and fishing off the two docks and would have lunch on top of the boathouse watching boats pass by. The cottage is located down the street from Hanna Park and is a short drive from Port Carling for groceries, shopping or dinner. Andrea was an incredible host and did everything she could to make us feel at home. I highly recommend Red Oaks!

Incredible stay, will return!

Andrea and her husband Matt are wonderful hosts - they are responsive and very helpful, and their property is gorgeous. It was such a great week at their cottage. The newly refinished boathouse sun deck was perfection! I would recommend this place to anyone and will certainly be returning.
