If you mean the “Malibu Beach House” episode of Scott’s Vacation House Rules, the cottage is associated with West Lake, Ontario—not Malibu, California. Home Network reports an average rate of about $500 per night for a four-bedroom cottage in the West Lake area, but that is not a confirmed rental price for the home featured on the show.
Where is the “Malibu Beach House” from the show?
Apple TV lists “Malibu Beach House” as an episode in the first season and describes a family cottage transformed into a Malibu-inspired beach retreat. The Malibu reference is the makeover theme, not the property’s location. Home Network connects the cottage with West Lake, Ontario. Apple TV’s episode listing and Home Network’s West Lake report provide those details.
The show features multiple properties, so “Scott’s Vacation House Rules property” does not point to one unique home. Apple TV’s first-season listings also include a Bavarian Guest House, a Muskoka cottage, a pet-friendly lakefront cottage, a lakeside rental and a historic carriage house. Apple TV’s season listing identifies these episodes.
What does it cost to rent the West Lake cottage?
Home Network reports that an average four-bedroom cottage in the West Lake area rents for about $500 per night, and notes that waterfront cottages may cost more. This is a local comparison, not a verified rate for the “Malibu Beach House” property. The source does not establish a current price for that specific home. Home Network’s report is the basis for the area estimate.

A real trip quote would require confirmed availability for the dates, guest count, fees and minimum-stay terms. No property-specific booking listing or live rate is established here.
Is Scott McGillivray’s Kawartha Lakes property the same place?
No. Home Network separately describes McGillivray’s own vacation property in Kawartha Lakes. It reports that a second cottage or lodge on the property could rent for $850 per night during high season. That is a reported seasonal figure for a different property—not the West Lake episode cottage—and it does not confirm current availability or a current quote. Home Network’s Kawartha Lakes article gives the figure.

What to know before planning a stay
- Confirm which property and location you mean: the West Lake episode cottage and McGillivray’s Kawartha Lakes property are distinct.
- Do not treat either reported figure as a live booking quote; the sources do not establish current availability, date-specific rates or booking terms.
- For West Lake, waterfront status matters: Home Network says waterfront cottages may cost more than the reported area average.
