We invite you to stay at our one-of-a kind, custom-built waterfront home for your next family getaway. Affectionately nicknamed 'Castle Aidan', this year-round family cottage offers over 3,500 square feet of living space including lower level walkout and sleeps up to 10 guests comfortably.

Take in the breathtaking and unobstructed views of beautiful Little Kennisis Lake from the inside (dining room, bedrooms, or loft) or outside (walkout flagstone patio or private master bedroom balcony). Enjoy a game of badminton in the large open backyard overlooking the lake or walk down a set of stairs to over 130 feet of waterfront with deep clean water off the dock great for swimming, fishing or water sports (paddle board, kayak, canoe, and paddle boat are provided). A public boat launch is located only a few minutes away and the Marina is close by on Kennisis Lake if you wish to rent a watercraft.

An entertaining games room with basketball, video game arcade, pool table, poker table, darts, and board games along with an outdoor BBQ, indoor wood fireplace and outdoor fire pit (firewood included) are provided for guests' enjoyment and use. In-floor radiant heating in the games room will keep you cozy during the winter.

Bell Fibre high-speed internet provides consistent speeds for streaming your favourite apps on Amazon Fire Stick TVs.

Brand new hot tub overlooking the lake!

A well-stocked kitchen offers a fridge, stove, microwave, toaster oven, dishwasher, kettle, and coffee makers (regular, Espresso, and Keurig). You may also find a collection of spices in the cupboard. The water is drinkable as it comes from a drilled artesian well 400 feet underground and undergoes a filtration and reverse osmosis process.

This place is amazing. The house has so much to do. The views from the balconies are amazing. The host were super helpful and everything was made super easy for my stay. The house itself is stunning. 10/10 would recommend.

We stayed a weekend and wished we had stayed longer to explore the trails or visit the Wolf Centre nearby. Dan was a very responsive host and the cottage had everything we needed. Everybody in our group loved the views - it's quite spectacular to wake up and see that through the windows first thing in the morning. Nothing like taking the canoe or kayak out from the dock and just forgetting all your troubles as you paddle around the beautiful lake. Lots to do on-site. We all fully recommend this place.

We had a really wonderful time at Castle Aidan! Dan is a pleasure to deal with and very responsive. The space is excellent and has a lot to offer. Everything was neat and tidy with lightswitches and cupboards helpfully labeled. The proximity to Haliburton Forest is great - we spent an afternoon at the Wolf Centre and the boys went hiking on the trails everyday. The second floor landing is very pleasant for reading and enjoying the amazing view. It was fun playing in the games room after dinner and the boys would have a quick hottub before bedtime. We highly recommend and will return again next year! :)

Glad your family enjoyed the stay and got to check out the Haliburton Wolf centre and wildlife reserve. See you next year!

Dan

This is an amazing cottage to stay in!!! Highly recommended. All rooms are so clean and organized, and we could truly feel that it is beautifully maintained with lots of care! Details in the guest book and labels in the cottage provided by the owners to ensure your smooth stay! The water front view (especially from the bay window on the second floor and main balcony) was so beautiful; the lake was lots of fun to swim in! There are many activities that are provided to you - kayak, pedal boat, paddle board. Basement recreation room has many entertainment units for all ages. If you are looking for a nice vacation home to stay with family/friends, this cottage offers it all!!

Thank you for your nice review Sophia. Really glad to hear you and your family enjoyed your stay at the Edge!

Dan

We had an amazing week at Castle Aidan! Dan was a fantastic host, very responsive, and accommodating.

We really enjoyed the basketball, pool, pac man, and darts games in the basement. The heated floors in the basement made it very comfortable for sleeping and playing.
Although the lake is very deep, it was beautifully warm for many hours of swimming! Excellent for boating, kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding, etc. The only downside of this week was all the stairs/hill to the cottage! The sitting area halfway down to the dock was wonderful to relax and enjoy the view. Between hours of water activities, swimming, and the climb back to the cottage, we sure got our exercise in. Thank you again for a fantastic week!
