So Private and Tranquil
My sister was visiting from California. We rented Waynes cabin with three other friends. Five women! We had a wonderful time. We took advantage of all the cabin and property had to offer. Saunas. Firepit at night with s'mores. Kayaking. Hiking. Fires in the evening in the cabin. The mornings are extraordinary if you like to get up early. The mist oen the lake combined with the wildlife waking up is breathtaking. The lake is delightful for kayaking and canoeing. My grandfather owned 100 acres in northern Ontario and this place took me back to my childhood and the wonder and awe of natures simplicity. You never have to leave the property but if you do, it is very close to both Haliburton and Minden. The area is rich with artists studios and galleries. This cabin is not to be missed! Oh, and the chipmunks (fondly chippies) will keep a smile on your face as they dash across the deck in their search for acorns. Truly a place to let go of the everyday stresses and just be in the moment.

slice of heaven
My wife and I (all g with our two dogs) stayed at Wayne's cabin this past week and it was like staying in our very own slice of heaven. We had a great time and the property is just amazing. As other a have said, I'd recommend having a 4x4 and then the drive is just fun! We will be staying here again. We both cannot say enough about this cabin.

Thanks, Wayne!
My husband and I had a lovely time during our 10-day stay at the cabin. It was comfortable and well-apportioned. We loved the wood stove on the cold and rainy days, and we got lots of exercise hiking the property! Wayne was a gracious host and we are eternally grateful that he shared his cabin with us.

A Spa for Mind, Body, Spirit
We both agree that the advertisement for Claypack Lake cannot prepare you for the absolutely therapeutic tranquility you will experience. First of all, Wayne's one hour to 90 minute “tour” of his family's cabin sets the tone for your stay with his gentle respect and awe for not only their home away from home but also the nature surrounding their home. The first thing Wayne helps you notice is the quiet. For a solid week all we heard was wind, birds, and water. (unless we used the CD player – and talk about good taste in music!) Before we arrived we had planned to drive into Haliburton (only about 15-20 minutes away) to see a movie or go to dinner, once at the cabin we didn't want to leave – so we made sure we had everything we could want so that we didn't need to leave. We hiked, swam, fished, cooked, played cards, read, used the sauna (wonderful!), showered in the outside shower (how freeing). Being alone with just the two of us and NO distractions was rejuevenating. This vacation, different from any we have taken before was just what the doctor ordered. Anthony even noticed his breathing slowed. We slept through the night (unusual for me) on the very comfortable queen size mattress. Speaking of comfort: the furniture and attention to detail throughout the cabin speaks to nothing but relaxation. Although I was personally dreading the outhouse (and bears), the overwhelming peace we felt at the cabin overrode any fears. The outhouse was actually the best outhouse we've ever used........with again - attention to detail. :) and we never witnessed a bear (pawprints – yes; the actual animal – no) The respect shown to guests is evident when you realize the personal belongings left behind by the family. Mi casa es su casa (My house is your house) is the overall feeling you have while at the cabin at Claypack Lake. Thank you, Wayne, for the grape preserves – delicious – even more so after we met and spoke with the couple who makes the preserves. You obviously attract warm, generous, trusting people. Thank you for trusting us with your home; we highly recommend this experience, which will be difficult to duplicate anywhere else.

About the host

Host profile image
I love to play in the outdoors. My favourite activities include hiking, mtn. biking, kayaking, canoeing, fishing, snowshoeing, bird watching, trail riding and making maple syrup. all of which I do on this property.

Why they chose this property

My connection with the Haliburton Highlands goes back 50 years. I went to several summer camps as a child in this area, and fell in love with the lakes and forests. This was fostered by many canoe trips throughout the area. This property is very special to me, as it affords one all the benefits gained from undisturbed wilderness, while maintaining most creature comforts. There are no interruptions from neighbours. You will not hear jet skiis going by, or any other loud annoying activities. Just
the call of the loon along with the calls of countless other species of birds and
animals.

Although the cabins and lake are secluded, you are only 10 minutes from the village of
West Guilford which includes groceries and liquor stores, and 15 minutes from the
town of Haliburton, which has all the amenities one could need. This includes a state of the art hospital for emergencies.

What makes this property unique

Watching Mother Nature without any interruptions.

Living in a Cabin constructed out of, trees from the property. This all wood sustainable construction feels ecologically sound and healthy.

Listening for and sighting exotic species of birds, and viewing wild game animals in their natural habitats.

Fishing on my own lake, and never getting
'skunked' (catch and release please).

Snowshoeing, and breaking trail up to the lookouts, where you can get a view of 3 lakes from one spot.

ATVing and snowmobiling on my own trails.

Making my own Maple Syrup.

Watching for the annual return of the great blue herons at our heron rookery.

Taking a sauna in one of the best saunas I
have experienced, and then rinsing off in the outdoor shower, (hot and cold water).

Canoeing and portaging to the next chain of lakes.

Knowing that I am the custodian of this wonderful place for generations to come.
