We rented 3 of the cottages at Scugog Landing last weekend for a family get together and had a fantastic time. Each cottage was clean and well equipped and the resort amenities were fantastic. The heated pools were super enjoyable and the jumping pillow kept the kids entertained for hours. The staff were welcoming and helpful and the band on Saturday night was an unexpected added bonus.

My wife and I, along with a couple of friends, were looking for a quick break from the city, and we were completely surprised by this place. It's less than an hour away, but it feels like a total getaway. We rented two cabins right next to each other for the weekend, and they were exactly what we needed. They were cozy and comfortable. You can tell the whole place is well maintained; they're always cleaning, and everything looks great. The washrooms are a quick two minute walk and were well maintained and clean, which is a big plus. The showers cost a dollar for about 10 minutes. The one small issue we had was with the geese. They are everywhere, and they leave their... "presents" all over the grass. The staff does try to clean it up, but you still have to watch your step. Honestly, that was the only downside. We had such a great time that we're already planning to go back next year. We hope to rent all four cabins since more of our friends and family want to join us. This place is a definite 5 stars. It's clean, beautiful, and the perfect spot for a quick, relaxing escape.

Rude receptionist needs alot of people training. Been here 17 years and new staff very rude. Oct 6 went to intercom buzzed said I was not on list. Told to go inside to sign in. Rude receptionist when I told her I've been here 17 years list must be wrong. Family had to correct their registration again. It was that rude receptionist apology came after my whole family went into office to confront her... Rude receptionist needs alot of people training. Been here 17 years and new staff very rude.

Please train all your new staff since our trailer park is made up of mostly people of various ethnic groups, religion and color.

I met some truly wonderful people—the environment was so warm and welcoming. The kids had an absolute blast! They spent their days riding bikes, swimming, going to the beach, and playing at this awesome bouncy area and park that kept them totally entertained. One of the highlights was when they went fishing and made new friends with other kids who were out there casting lines too. It was such a joy to watch them connect and have so much fun. All in all, it was a beautiful experience filled with laughter, relaxation, and great memories. Just one tip: make sure to read their brochure—it has everything you need to make the most of your stay!

My husband, our friends, and I rented two cabins for a weekend in July. The cabins were clean and well-maintained. However, I would recommend that the cleaning staff spend a bit more time cleaning and checking the mattresses and bunk beds—we found a pair of dirty underwear beneath one and food crumbs beneath another.

However, I would recommend that the cleaning staff spend a bit more time cleaning and checking the mattresses and bunk beds—we found a pair of dirty underwear beneath one and food crumbs beneath another. This only came to light when I was putting on our own linens, as guests are required to bring their own. There are also quite a few geese in the park, and unfortunately, much of the grassy area around the cabins was covered in geese droppings. While the staff did make an effort to clean it using a lawnmower-style vacuum, it didn’t seem to make much of a difference. Just be mindful where you are walking especially at night. Aside from that, everything else was great and we really enjoyed our stay.
