High end cozy retreat ideal for large families with wood stove & large firepit

Enjoy the peace and comfort of this bright, family owned, luxury four season vacation home nestled on 3 acres of private lakeside forest. This high-end, fully air conditioned, open concept, rustic country residence is fully equipped, comfortably appointed with leather furniture and features open concept post & beam construction, reclaimed wide plank flooring, wood stove, two full bathrooms and a beautiful granite kitchen with breakfast bar and new appliances. The home overlooks pristine Falls Lake and features a new wrap around deck with glass rails and an awing, BBQ, T-shaped dock, swim raft and a roomy lakeside fire pit. It also comes with lots of lake toys including two kayaks, two paddle boards, canoe, row boat and lots of life jackets; and lots of fun stuff like baseball gloves, frisbees, badminton rackets, masks, snorkels & fins, super soakers, noodles & coin toss. There's also several kids and adult board games for fun family times.

The home also offers central air conditioning and two recently renovated full bathrooms and 3 large bedrooms upstairs and sleeps a total of 10. Each bedroom has a TV with Netflix and Prime. The cottage is also equipped with a convenient dishwasher, washer & dryer, 4 TV's and Bluetooth speaker. There's also a wood stove in the living room to snuggle up to on cooler fall & winter nights (wood supplied).

The four-season vacation home overlooks 350' of water frontage on Falls Lake. During the spring and summer, the cottage is perfect for families who enjoy boating, golf, hanging at the lake, swimming off the anchored raft, exploring distant shores by trail or kayak, fishing for feisty bass or roasting marshmallows around the seasonal lakeside fire pit.

During the fall and winter seasons, enjoy spectacular autumn colors, miles of hiking trails, horseback riding, downhill and cross country skiing (20 min. from Ski Martock), ice skating and snowmobiling.

Falls Lake (also known as 'cottage country') is located about 60 minutes from Halifax. It's known as a four season vacation playground offering lake and ocean activities along with magnificent wild life and sightseeing. The Atlantic Ocean, Bay of Fundy, four golf courses and Ski Martock are all less than 30 minutes away. For nature lovers and wild life enthusiasts, the Lake has a number of active loon and kingfisher nests, hummingbirds, eagles, rabbits, deer, moose and an occasional sighting of the reclusive black bear.

The town of Windsor in the Annapolis Valley is approximately 25 minutes from Falls Lake, offering grocery stores, hospital, museums, an Irish pub, restaurants and all the amenities of a bustling town. The town has several attractions to appeal to young and old alike including the Waterslide, Aquatic Pool Center, Fort Edward Historic Site, Hockey Heritage Museum and Haliburton House Museum. While you’re in town, stop by the local Spitfire Arms Alehouse which serves great pub food and 25 varieties of beer on tap and live entertainment on the weekends.

The Annapolis Valley is also home to dozens of world class vineyards, all of which offer vineyard tours, including Bent Ridge Winery, Sainte Famille Vineyard in nearby Falmouth and many more Valley wineries such as Pete Luckett’s, Muir Murray, Jost, Gaspereau, Grand Pré and Blomidon, just to name a few. (Designated driver recommended!)

About 45 minutes in the other direction, you’ll meet the Atlantic Ocean and the historic towns of Chester, Mahone Bay and Lunenburg, a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site. For shoppers, sailors and beach lovers alike, the South Shore offers great boutique shopping and restaurants, beautiful ocean vistas and the ever popular Hubbards & Queensland beaches.

Enjoy day trips to Risers Beach, Kejimkujik National Park, Aylesford Zoo, New Ross Farm and the picturesque fishing community of Halls Harbour, located on the shoreline of the Bay of Fundy, known for the highest tides in the world. Go to www.ourvalley.ca for other nearby attractions and day trip ideas.
