Very comfortable cottage with ample space for the 4 of us. Many old Muskoka touches and a lovely deck to eat all of your meals on during your time up North. The owner was extremely accommodating to our family and 2 very well behaved dogs. The property and dock are shared with the owner, so he is on site for all of your questions/needs during your stay. Ample dock parking space for our 22' boat and suv/trailer on land. Close proximity to Port Carling, quiet bay for a morning paddle and sunset drink on the dock.
Starry sky quiet bay evening.
Happy pup that wouldn't leave the lily pads - like a Monet painting!
