Paradise on the Burnt River

My husband and I were thrilled to call this spectacular cottage getaway “home” while we explored nearby Kinmount and Haliburton. The property is absolutely stunning with the calm mirror-like Burnt River running along the backyard. The stay came with complimentary use of every water toy you can imagine and our gracious hosts Ralph and Min were happy and eager to help us get launched in every one of our choosing! In fact, I doubt we could find more congenial hosts if we searched high and low. Ralph and Min gave us the most hospitable welcome we have ever had and made us feel right at home from the get go and that feeling never ceased. Our hosts were great conversationalists who offered a wealth of local knowledge regarding places of interest to see or do or places to eat (although the kitchen in our lodgings came with everything you need to cook for yourself plus a BBQ in the backyard!) Our hosts went the extra mile when decorating the newly renovated lodgings – it came with two TVs, an indoor shuffleboard table, multiple fireplaces and the fridge even came stocked with condiments and ice and the cupboards with spices and an abundance of cooking utensils and dishware. The premises were spotless and we were given full private use of their immaculate grounds including dock and sitting area. Honestly, I do not think we could have dreamt of a place that could live up to this – a truly hidden gem that deserves to be explored again and again. P.S. – check out the Highland Cinemas in Kinmount, it’s one of a kind!
