Important Rental Information

This web site contains detailed descriptions of each of the cottages. Each cottage is referenced to the nearest Town or Village, lake or bay.

Please read each listing carefully, especially as it relates to the maximum number of people permitted in the cottage and any other limitations that affect the rental.

There are two basic ways to search for a cottage. The first is through our customized search engine. Using the advanced cottage rental search engine you can state the specific criteria that you are looking for in a cottage. Then press the submit button and a list of cottages that meet your criteria are displayed. Simply click onto the cottage name to call up the detailed cottage description and pictures.

The second method is to browse the Ontario Cottage Rentals by geographic area. This will produce a listing of cottages for the area requested.

All cottages listed on this web site are checked on a regular basis by the staff of Rentcottage.com.

This is the renter’s responsibility.
