The Willow | Lakefront Cottage | Muskoka

Summary:

The Willow is a peaceful waterfront cottage tucked away in the heart of Muskoka. Designed for slow mornings and sunset views, this thoughtfully styled retreat offers cozy interiors, a fully equipped kitchen, and direct lake access. Whether you’re here for a romantic escape, a family getaway, or solo rest — The Willow is your calm corner of cottage country.



As guests of Katie's Cozy Getaways, you'll also receive our curated digital guidebook filled with our favourite restaurants, local experiences, and hidden gems around Muskoka to help you make the most of your stay.



The Space:

Step inside to an open-concept living space designed for gathering after a day on the lake. Large windows fill the cottage with natural light while framing beautiful waterfront views. The fully equipped kitchen makes it easy to cook together, and three comfortable bedrooms plus the cozy bunkie provide plenty of space for families and small groups.



Outside is where The Willow truly shines. Start your mornings on the private dock, spend afternoons swimming or paddling on the lake, and end the day around the firepit watching the sunset over the water.



The Neighborhood:

Located just 10 minutes from downtown Gravengurst, The Willow blends natural beauty with small-town charm. Explore local shops, hiking trails, and Muskoka’s iconic scenery — or simply relax and soak in the lakeside tranquility.



Other Things to Note:

Please note that access to the lake involves a number of stairs, so care is encouraged. For your enjoyment, we’ve included lawn chairs, loungers, canoes, kayaks, a paddleboard, foam dock, and floaties to make the most of your time on the water.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker and a dining table.

The perfect spot on lovely Loon Lake. Katie was a gracious host. The cottage is grand. And my dog could not have been happier to be able to pop in and out of the water a zillion times.

Reunion with friends

Stayed at this property for a weekend with a bunch of friends. Comfortably slept nine of us. Best feature is the dock/waterfront in general. Really large dock, great for hanging out.
