Bluewater Beach Vacations from $1,503

Stayed with my family for two nights. The cottage is very quiet even though the cottages are located in close proximity to each other. The check in and check out was simple and easy. There are plenty of water activities available to take part in (paddle board, canoes, and kayak). We would stay here again.

Recently stayed here Aug. 14-16. Check in was seamless. A pair of chocolate truffles welcomed us on arrival with a hand written note saying as much. The mattress was firm and in excellent condition, the room was fully pre-stocked stocked with crisp, fresh linens and a mini fridge with several non-alcoholic drinks at no extra charge, coffee pods and a coffee maker. The room and washroom sparkled and smelled of fresh cedar logs, instantly transporting us into Vacay Mode. The complimentary brekky was fresh and generous enough to let us get going on our early morning paddle to explore the lake by canoe or kayak. Fresh, plush towels were available outdoors, too, right near the dock. The sauna located in the gym, the outdoor fireplace and games would also be great to try during a longer stay. I can suggest to offer guests to make marshmallows in summer by the firepit one night of the week. Front of House lead, Justine, took very good care of us and responded to any request we made and checked back in during our stay, in case we wanted to opt in for dinner or brunch reservations. Very attentive staff overall. Would go back here in a heartbeat in another season to continue exploring the area. A magical hidden gem in Haliburton that actually does live up to its 5 star rating. Outstanding service by the whole team. I cannot wait to tell my close friends how wonderful our visit here was.

The property looks very nice and allows you access to a beach for swimming, a dock for jumping into the lake and two pools (although one pool wasnt open while we were there). The pools are much smaller than you would expect so can get a bit crowded. The rooms were a good size and looked like they had a nice refresh at some point in recent years. My biggest con is that our room had a dirty shower curtain and we had booked the room for 4 people and they only gave us enough towels for 2 people. In addition, we needed to sleep our kids on the pull out couch and they didn't pre-emptively leave us sheets for that either. I think if they were to pay more attention to details such as this they would retain more customers.

The staff were warm and very helpful. The setting on Lake Joseph is beautiful!
