About this property

Muskoka Waterfront Cottage on 54 acres, 10 minutes from Gravenhurst

  • Fabulous cottage for getaways with a group of family or friends.
    2800 sq.ft. cottage with 1000 sq. foot great room and 16-foot ceilings; includes a living room and dining room separated by a two-sided fireplace, a harvest table that seats 12 people, and an open kitchen. A 192 sq.ft. Muskoka room (screened porch) for bug-free outdoor dining and fold-up tables for endless game options. Plus, it's a great place to enjoy the spectacular sunsets.
    Main bedroom/bathroom in a separate wing with a private deck. The other wing has 4 bedrooms and a full bathroom. The downstairs “tree fort” room is a kids’ haven, complete with a granite "jumping rock", pop-a-shot dual basketball game, 3 queen-sized bunk beds and the 3rd bathroom. Playpen and booster seat available.
    Endless options for fun at the lake: private beach with shallow water for the first few feet, docks, lily pad, 2 sit-on kayaks suitable for adults and kids alike, 2 paddleboards, canoe, croquet, slack line and fire pit. Gated stairs to the lake (child safety).
    Treefort, 11-foot spring-free trampoline, great hiking around the 54-acre property.
    Plenty of parking for multiple cars. Starlink Wifi, propane BBQ, washer/dryer, microwave, dishwasher, stove, 2 fridges (bought 2023 and 2024), 65" smart TV on hydraulic lift that stores away.
    Lots of activities on the property to keep you busy. Or if you want to venture out a few minutes away from the cottage, try some shopping at the Muskoka Wharf, a cruise on the Muskoka Steamships, get some local fare at Farmer's market (Wednesdays in the summer), or a premium round of golf at Muskoka Bay.

    Review prior to VRBO listing:
    "We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful place to have our first experience of Canadian cottage life. An easy drive from Gravenhurst and perfectly situated to enjoy the most amazing golden hours from many vantage points.
    The great room has huge proportions and the screened in eating porch makes entertaining with a large group effortless.
    Great property for exploring and easy swimming with a private beach and swim dock.
    Kathleen is an excellent host with everything (and more!) that you could need being provided.
    Would not hesitate to recommend."

Incredible cottage in a beautiful location. We had three families (six adults and six young kid), and there was more than enough space for everyone. It's private and secluded, on a quiet part of the lake, but still a very short drive into town. The cottage itself has everything you could need, and Kathleen was a great, responsive host. The waterfront area is also great, with a perfect shallow, sandy beach for the kids to play in. We would definitely go back!

Amazing property

The huge property makes this cottage very private and quiet. The view is amazing, and the lake is wonderful. We got a lot of use out of the watercraft. Cycling, golf and climbing nearby was so much fun. The cottage is very large and well equipped, but the pine floors give it a cottage feel rather than feeling like a house in the city. The screened in dining area is terrific and there was lots of room to spread out for those that had some work to do during the week. Our adult children and their spouses declared this the best cottage ever.

This place is unbelievably impressive. Minutes from Gravenhurst but still years away. The pictures don’t do it justice. Amazing cottage getaway for a large family or multiple families. Stocked with everything you can think of and even things you didn’t think of. Highly recommend.

Great for Family and Friends.

A very tidy and lovely cottage equipped with everything we needed for our stay! We had a group of 14 adults and one toddler and we had more than enough space to be comfortable. This family cottage had thought of everything, some kids toys, gates at the top of the stairs, pocket doors for additional soundproofing and even step stools to help the little one reach the bathroom sinks. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. Everyone who stayed with us said the bedrooms were all clean and comfortable. Great views and pretty much on the water if you are able to do the hike on the stairs. Kathleen is a great host and very responsive when needed. Very good and detailed in answering any questions before and during our stay. Some of our group's highlights. Sunroom/screened in porch was awesome for afternoon board games. Floating docks are always fun. The paddleboards provided gave some adventure to those that wanted it. Lots of space: rooms, deck, and beach to spread out and get some reading done too. We really enjoyed our time there.
