| My fiance, mother and I had a wonderful long weekend stay at Johannes Rock Haven! The location is perfect and is a short drive to Bala or Gravenhurst. We loved the cleanliness of the cottage as well as the beautiful lake and water activities available for use. Being close to tennis courts at the Walkers Point community centre was also a plus! Thanks for a great weekend!

| Amazing cottage
The moment we arrived Dave and Alison welcomed us and gave us the quick tour and overview of the cottage. Clean, updated beautiful cottage. They go above and behind making sure the cottage is equipped with anything you may need. The upper deck off the living room is big and spacious to eat, sit and relax with Great Lake view. The lower dock on the water was a perfect spot for us all to hang out on comfortably and relax or fish. Fishing was great right from the dock as we were catching big large mouth bass everyday. Clean weed free water to swim was great with the floating dock further out on the lake. Plus the canoe, kayak, peddle boat were great on the quiet and very private lake.
We plan on returning next Summer!

Owner response: Thank you for your kind words Joel. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay. I'm not a fisherman so I'm always glad to hear when others enjoy the lake for the great fishing! We would love to host you and your family again next summer. Cheers | |

| A Perfect Muskoka Getaway!
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this charming cottage! From the moment Dave and Alison greeted us, it was clear how much care had gone into maintaining and preparing the space for guests. The cottage was spotlessly clean, which made us feel comfortable and right at home.
It was also well appointed with everything we could possibly need?whether it was the fully equipped kitchen, cozy linens, or thoughtful little touches that really made the stay special.
Whether you're looking for a quiet retreat or a base to explore the area, this cottage is ideal. We can't wait to return!

| Once again we had a great stay at Johannes Rock Haven. The cottage was so clean and welcoming when we arrived. All the extra touches and amenities were sure appreciated! We love the dock/water area too being the water is so easily accessible. The paddle boat and paddleboards were a real hit. This year we enjoyed playing pickleball at the nearby community centre too, along with hiking at Hardy Lake. Thanks Dave and Alison for making our stay a wonderful time again!

| We enjoyed an idylic stay at the cottage. Plenty of room for six adults to roam, talk and enjoy the water together. Both the dock and the upper deck were roomy for us. The hosts thought of everything! The shore is the usual Muskoka rock, but with the turf in the watermade entry for a swim easy. The kitchen is a delight to work in, with all the conveniences of home. The closeness to Hardy Lake Trails, to Gravenhurst and Bala gave us plenty to do for a few hours a day, before we headed back down to the lake for a swim or a paddle in the canoe. When I return to Muskoka I would book this cottage again.
