Beachfront vacation rentals in Minden Hills

We stayed 4 nights at Bryan's cottage and had a wonderful time. Very beautiful view of the lake. Although it was still a bit chilly in April, we were very cozy and warm at the cottage. It was very clean, well stocked, and had everything you could possibly need for your stay. The cottage even had some board games. Bryan was very responsive and was a great host overall. 5/5. Would highly recommend!

It's a best place and peaceful. Spent our days calmly and the view behind the cottage is awesome.

Such a wonderful stay! Beautiful place. Super impressed with how clean, neat, tidy, and well-stocked it is. But especially how homey & cozy this place is! So glad we stayed here :)

We are a family of four with two young kids, and the stay in Azar’s peaceful waters cottage was great. The cottage is beautiful, decorated in very good taste, perfectly equipped and feels very homey. It is very clear that many details have been thought of to make it extremely friendly for guests, particularly for families (for example, there were spare change of sheets in the children’s bedrooms). We stayed there during a snowstorm weekend, so there we didn’t do a lot of travel around the area, but just staying in and hanging around the cottage was beautiful and very enjoyable. The location is very private and quiet. It is a perfect place for families. We would definitely come back to Azar’s cottage to visit the area at other seasons as well.

Words cannot describe how impressed we were with Laughing Moose. The minute I walked in the front door I felt I could live here for ever. The incredible views, the spacious kitchen the stylish little pieces of decor make this place comfortable, relaxing and luxury. Janice pays attention to every little detail to ensure we had a fabulous time! From the selection of quality glasses, crockery and cooking utensils to the games and puzzles ( we completed a full jig saw puzzle between us) we had everything we could possibly need and much more. Even a thoughtful and delicious blueberry pie to welcome us !! We were visiting from Australia and planned this weekend with our two sons and families for a getaway together. It couldn’t have been more perfect and we made such fabulous memories. So much space for all 8 of us plus the 2 dogs! I can’t thank you enough for this special visit! And Janice don’t forget I want you to live with us in Australia to style our hone! Best regards E &G & family

We enjoyed our stay. More beautiful than the pictures. Caroline was very responsive. She offered us early check-in and accepted to check out at 11am instead of 10am. can't wait to go back in summer.

What an amazing place to stay located in such beautiful surroundings. Every minute of our stay at this property was exactly what we were looking for in a four day weekend at a cottage. Mary Ann and Oliver are the perfect hosts and made sure that we had everything that we needed and they both went above and beyond for us. I will be highly recommending this coach house rental to family and friend’s.

amazing location on the waterfront. So relaxing to be away from the city. was great for travelling with kids. thank you for letting us stay

We recently had the pleasure of staying at a fantastic condo in Friday Harbour, and we can’t recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a stunning view that took our breath away. The condo itself was a perfect blend of luxury and comfort. It was impeccably clean, stylishly decorated, and equipped with all the amenities one could wish for. One of the highlights of our stay was the private balcony, where we spent many mornings sipping coffee and evenings watching the sunset over the harbor. The location of the condo is unbeatable. Just a short walk to charming local shops, restaurants, and the marina, it offered the perfect mix of relaxation and convenience. Overall, our stay at this condo in Friday Harbour was exceptional. It’s clear that the owners have put a lot of thought and care into creating a perfect retreat. If you’re looking for a memorable getaway, this place should be at the top of your list!

Very nice and peaceful location, had an amazing and relaxing time with my family. Host was very responsive and accommodating, great value for money. It felt like home, with amazing restaurants, overall great experience… Hope to be back in summer!

Peter was very quick with his responses and took the time to look up what was near the air bnb. The location was amazing since it was right beside a ski resort and 20 minutes away was the most beautiful skating trail in the forest. The air bnb itself was very nice. We cooked dinner and it had everything we needed and seasoning as well. The only thing would be the TV which we didn’t bring a laptop to connect to, which Peter did communicate to us we needed. It was a very great stay and Peter was ever helpful and kind ! Will come back in the summer for the lake.

Gary & Mina were excellent hosts. They greeted us for check in and where very accommodating. Any questions we had were quickly answered via the AirBNB app. The house was full of character and had lots of things to do indoors and outdoors. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies, utensils and kitchen wares. There was a washer/dryer centrally located which was great for towels and the Weber BBQ was in top notch condition. Water toys well maintained (2 kayaks, 1 paddle board, 1 canoe and 1 paddle boat). Pool and hot tub worked great, which was a must for our cottage getaway.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful condo, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the moment I arrived, everything was seamless — check-in was easy, the space was spotless, and the amenities were top-notch. The condo was not only stylish and cozy, but also thoughtfully equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The location was perfect — close to everything I wanted to explore, yet peaceful and quiet for downtime. I especially appreciated the small touches like the welcome basket, extra linens, and local recommendations. A huge thank you to the host for being so responsive, kind, and accommodating throughout my stay. Your hospitality truly made this a memorable visit, and I’m so grateful. Warmest thanxx..

My boyfriend and I stayed the weekend, it was a great location, Joe was very responsive and friendly! We had only 1 concern with the bbq that was not clean, but it has been handled with effectively. Overall space was very clean, it was easy to find kitchen supplies, and other items in the house! A great location with stores, restaurants at a walking distance, and other attractions within a 30 minute drive

Definitely will be booking again. Very relaxing!

I recently stayed at Nicole’s Airbnb for two nights, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The space was exactly as described—spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. Nicole was a wonderful host, responding quickly to any questions and offering helpful recommendations for the area. The location was perfect, close to local attractions yet peaceful and quiet for a good night’s rest. I couldn’t have asked for a better stay and would absolutely rent from Nicole again. Highly recommended!

Even with a series of unfortunate weather events the stay was great! Do and family are responsive and kind and the place was fantastic! We will be back!

We rented Amanda's place for 2 nights in the winter and it surpassed our expectations! Amanda was a great communicator. The older cottage has been extensively renovated, it was clean, comfortable and cozy. We loved the wood stove and the heating system worked well. The kitchen is first-rate, and very well-equipped, it even had decent knives! We cook a lot and we very much enjoyed making meals there. We loved watching the ever-changing weather on the river from the picture window in the living room, and even saw a beautiful sunrise. The star of our stay was the sauna—we have a wood-burning sauna at home and at our cottage—and we were very impressed with its size, the modern design, the huge picture window and the style of stove. It got up to temperature even in -17 degree weather. We hiked and snowshoed in the Alexander Hope Smith Nature Reserve which was a walk from the cottage. The town of Washago was a 11 minute drive, with a great grocery store. Would definitely stay there again!

Our stay at Darren's place was perfect. The sandy beach and plentiful ammenities for the kids was exactly what we needed. There were a few hiccups but the host is very responsive and helpful. I would recommend this spot for any family looking for a great getaway without having to bring too much with them. Thanks for everything Darren, we would love to come back again!

I had a wonderful stay.The place was exactly as described—clean, spacious , and well-equipped with all the essentials. The location was perfect, close to beautiful lake and the host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout my stay. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a peace. Would love to return!

We really enjoyed our stay at Ken's place. We stayed during a pretty nasty ice storm so it was incredibly helpful that we had the back-up generator. His maintenance guy Bill was great at checking in with us and making sure everything was working as expected.

Had a great stay at Lambs Landing with a group of friends. Debby & Tyler were extremely responsive and great hosts. The amenities were exactly as described / pictured and the home was extremely clean. Looking forward to staying again in the future!

We absolutely loved our stay at the cottage. The photos truly don’t capture how beautiful and peaceful the decor, property, and grounds are. Everything is so thoughtfully set up—it’s clear a lot of care has gone into making it feel special. The kitchen is better stocked than most of ours at home! The view from the hot tub was a highlight, and we appreciated all the games and toys available for both kids and adults. One small but clever detail we really liked was the ability to close off the living room—such a great feature for keeping things quiet when others are sleeping. We’re already dreaming about coming back in the summer to enjoy the incredible beachfront!

"Have a great stay at Andrew's place! This was my third visit, and it’s been the best one yet. The amenities were easy to find and plentiful. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a beautiful, spacious, peaceful, and clean stay."
