- "Our family of 8, plus two dogs, had an absolutely fantastic time, and made some wonderful memories, over our week long stay. This cottage has been thoughtfully and tastefully renovated and provides all of the modern conveniences while still keeping the wonderful character and charm of the original cottage. The kitchen is bright, modern and well appointed. The family/dining room area is open, airy and spacious with a spectacular view of the lake. Beds were super comfy. Greatly appreciated the washer/dryer. Lovely sitting area on the back porch and at the front of the cottage there is plenty of seating and was quite lovely as well. We would highly recommend this cottage and would love to return one day."

- "Exactly as shown on the pictures. An older cottage but very clean, beds were verycomfortable, and the lake was very quiet. Overall we enjoyed it and would go there again." - "We stayed at this gem (3 families) as our boys were in a Lacrosse tournament. We really enjoyed our stay and our boys did a lot of fishing. It was perfect and we will definitly go back. The owner was prompt at responding to our questions and we saved $400 per family by staying here as opposed to staying at an overpriced hotel. The boys created memories and the place had everything that we needed. Thank You!"

- "This location is ideal for families. We were a group of 7 adults and 3 children (9, 7, & 3). The large yard gave the kids a lot of space to run around and they loved inventing games around the volleyball net. The swing was a big hit with the older two. The water is fairly shallow around the dock with a sandy bottom, and we were still able to dock our boat easily and comfortably. The kitchen table was large enough for all of us to sit for meals and the fridge was able to store all of our food for the week :) We recommend this location and would return."

Cozy suite, this location provides the very best of the outdoors enthusiasts 45 minutes from the GTA. Found on the outskirts of Port Perry near the Blue Heron Casino and on the shores of Lake Scugog, you will find great fishing, swimming, and boating at your doorstep. Also great lounging on the deck/dock! The casino is 5 min drive and the town of Port Perry with its good restaurants and shopping is 10 min car ride or take your boat! Unfortunately, no pets are allowed by guests.
Besides the great fishing, swimming, and boating we also offer kayaks, for your pleasure.
We are a 10-minute stroll to Scugog Landing where you will find a small restaturant, and a place to launch your boat if you have one; during business hours.
If you would like to shop or are looking for other dining opportunities the town of Port Perry will provide what you are looking for and more. Just a short 10-minute drive by either car, or boat to the public docks, will lead you to the heart of town.
Feeling lucky? Venture a short 5-minute car ride up to the Blue Heron Casino and try your luck with a variety of games of chance.
The drive to Sunset Haven is on well-paved roads. There is ample parking on the new driveway when you arrive. A gentle slope and wide stairs lead you to the suite that is perched over the lake for fantastic views and spectacular sunsets. Gentle stairs lead you down to the dock where you can put your boat on a lift.
As the host to this little piece of heaven, I will always try to greet the guests when they arrive and set them up for their stay. For short stays during non-peak times we will try to be here for your arrival and give you a tour. Arrangements will be on a case-by-case basis. During your stay, I will be available by phone or my wife Stacey will be. Check-out will be discussed as part of your check-in procedure.
Unfortunately, we no longer accept pets at the property.
The boat lift is available to you at our dock if you would like to bring one. The boat needs to be on the lift when at the dock. Scugog can get quite rough and we do not suggest just tying up. Just let us know in advance so we can make arrangements.
If you like to fish make sure you have a fishing license. This is easily attainable in Port Perry at the Canadian Tire store. You can follow the following link to sign up online. www.ontario.ca/page/fishing-licence-canadian-residents . The MNRF agents are quite often on the lake and are ready to enforce the rules.
The lake is prolific and holds Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Muskie, Crappie, Perch, and Carp for your angling pleasure.
Please contact us directly if you have any further questions.

- "From the moment my partner, my dog and I arrived at Lynn's enchanting Bed & Breakfast in Port Perry, I knew I was in for a truly exceptional experience. This past week has been nothing short of a delightful retreat, filled with warmth, comfort, and genuine hospitality. Lynn, the remarkable hostess, is the heart and soul of this haven. Her welcoming smile and genuine care immediately put me at ease. Throughout my stay, Lynn's attention to detail and dedication to ensuring every aspect of my visit was perfect truly stood out. From the meticulously prepared breakfasts to the thoughtful touches that adorned the charmingly decorated rooms, it was evident that Lynn pours her heart into every corner of her establishment. The accommodations were a perfect blend of cozy and elegant. Each room exudes its own unique character, offering a true escape from the mundane. As someone who values a good night's sleep, I was overjoyed by the plush bedding and tranquil ambiance that embraced me each night. Waking up to the aroma of a scrumptious breakfast being prepared was a highlight I looked forward to every morning. And speaking of breakfast, Lynn's culinary talents are truly something to behold. Each morning brought a new and delectable surprise to the table."

In the main house, the main floor has a living room, a kitchen with a round wood table, and a dining table.we have most cooking utensils and tablewares.there are a BBQ and tables, seatings on the outside deck.At the loft,there are three bedrooms with king-size bed, queen-size bed and queen-size bed.At the lower level, a queen-size bed plus a sigle-size bed in one bedroom, and in another bedroom, three single-size beds. And two sofa couches in the living room for extra sleeping option.
- "Very big,right on the lake,huge yard lots of room,very nice hostess" - "This cottage in theory is great, but unfortunately it is not well cleaned and maintained in between guests. The hottub was very dirty and we could not use it, even though the host confirmed before hand it was ready for us. When we got in there was a thick layer of slime on the ground and we could see our footprints. We sent the host a message about the cleanliness of the hottub and never received a response. In the kitchen, the inside of the fridge was not wiped out, the cupboards had a lot of crumbs, and dishes were just thrown in, some with old food and mold growing on them. The upstairs bathroom had no working lights. It is clear they do not check the property very carefully in between guests. Still giving this cottage 3 stars because the bedrooms seemed clean, the property had a good firepit and was nice for yard games. We had a fun weekend but felt the 300 cleaning fee should have resulted in a cleaner space and a hot tub that we could actually use. Also the lakefront at this cottage does not have a swimming area, it is very marshy. I didn't think it was emphasized enough on the listing that you cannot swim here. "

Cozy but not small. Nicely decorated with quality and comfort in mind. The flat is very private in it’s own building.
Walk to downtown shopping and restaurants, and to schools or hospital. A fun space.
- "The studio is lovely and beautifully appointed. Everything one needs for a break from life’s otherwise hectic pace. The canopy, ponds and grounds are spectacular. Mother Nature at her best. The stewards of the land are two kind peaceful souls. A perfect place to retreat, write and relax. Thank you." - "This property is magical! The flat is absolutely darling with the most thoughtful touches and appointments. We felt like we had been swept away to a dream!"
