This thoughtfully designed cottage offers a comfortable and luxurious stay with modern amenities throughout.

Outdoor cooking enthusiasts will love the grilling setup featuring a Traeger smoker, Otto Wilde steak broiler, and even a BBQ right on the dock, perfect for lakeside meals and sunset dinners. The front deck is ideal for relaxing, with loungers, a couch, and a gas fire table overlooking the lake.

The open-concept main floor spans 800 sq ft and includes a fully equipped kitchen, a dining area for ten, and a cozy living room centered around a two-sided fireplace.

The large C-shaped dock provides multiple seating areas, loungers, a large umbrella for shade, and the dockside BBQ—an ideal place to relax and enjoy the beautiful lakeside views.
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi.

This cottage is amazing from the inside and out. We had 11 people (6 adults and 5 kids under 7), and it fit us perfectly. The cottage is updated with everything you could need while still having that rustic cottage feel. The view of the lake is spectacular, and there was plenty of room for all of us to feel comfortable. I have been coming to the Muskoka area for 30 years now, and this might be one of the best cottages I have been to.The size of the dock and lake access was perfect for small children and adults. There was plenty of seating, and the water was great for swimming. There's even a small sandy area for small kids about 2 feet deep. If you are looking for a cottage to sit on the dock and go swimming, this is the place for you. The lake was extremely quiet the entire week we were there, and the neighbors were very friendly. The best part is you don't feel like you're crowded in with a bunch of cottages.Access to the cottage was easy, and there was ample parking. It's a short distance away from Bracebridge, which was nice for getting food and just going into town. Dave is a great host and communication was amazing our entire stay. He answered all our questions prior to arrival and made sure we had no issues getting in. We had a storm while we were there and he made sure we were good to go in every way possible.I highly recommend this place to anyone, especially those with kids. We will 100% stay there again.

Thanksgiving Weekend

It was amazing from the time we booked this cottage until the time we came back to reality 🙂. Dave was very helpful especially in updating us about the road condition (during the time of road repair) which gave us an opportunity to amend our preparations. We love the huge kitchen space, the long table, the baths, it’s proximity to the water, and everything about this cottage: it was just stunning and spectacular!! We can’t wait to secure our next adventure to this cottage. Thank you Dave and to the management. Stay safe everyone.

Perfect getaway in a beautiful cottage.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this beautiful property. The cottage is lovely and has every amenity you could possibly need. Definitely felt like a home away from home. We spent a lot of time in the water, swimming and paddle boarding. The wall to wall screens leading to the deck allowed us to enjoy the outside while having dinner in the dining room or chatting in the living room. The owners really have thought of everything. A beautiful place to enjoy time with family.

A True Muskoka Getaway

What a treat this cottage was! We really enjoyed the various water activities. The shallow bay and dock area is perfect for the young kids to swim in while the adults watch on and relax (or join in with them)! The cottage is one of the most well equipped we have seen. The large kitchen makes dinner prep with various adults a breeze with lots of space to store your groceries, various appliances and a full fridge/freezer. There are numerous bath and beach towels to go around for everyone! The laundry facilities were well used. The space was perfect for us. The 2 bedroom walkout basement with a bathroom is great for a family of 4. The kids were so excited for the bunk beds, but we recommend bringing a portable bunk bed rail for the top bunk if your kids are still a little young and prone to rolling around. Upstairs, a beautiful and large master ensuite awaits you. Need to work remotely? The master loft is the perfect spot for it, with views of the lake and spacious desk. The small and cozy queen room is great for a couple, with extra space in the main loft. Parts of the cottage can get quite warm and stuffy during the hot/humid days, but thankfully we had mostly cooler nights to cool it down and a breeze off the lake. The ceiling fans do a pretty good job, but we needed to borrow the portable fan from the master for the queen room. The sunsets are beautiful! The glow off the lake into the cottage makes for relaxing evenings. :) The ambiance is nothing but enjoyable. For those wishing to dock a boat, having an experienced driver around shallow and rocky areas makes getting around the small lake easy and relaxing. We anchored down in various spots away from other boats and cottages and allowed the kids to fish and jump off the boat and swim which they absolutely loved. Be sure to check for rocky areas! Since it being a smaller/quiter lake, there was little boat traffic, great for those wanting to cruise around on canoes paddle baords, kayaks etc. The winds and gusts on the lake can become quite strong on windy days, so be sure to check the forecast before heading out on smaller watercraft. Bracebridge and surrounding areas are well within reach if you need to go into town for groceries or want to wander into the little shops! Dave was excellent, flexible and checked in to make sure we were settled in okay. Thank you for opening your cottage to us. We had a wonderful week and we were sad to say goodbye! Highly recommended!
