About this cottage rental
Original Kawarthan cottage on the shimmering shores of Kathchewanooka lake.
This rustic cottage will take you back in time maybe to a more peaceful time, with stunning moonscapes, tranquil sunsets and clear blue skies. Although the building has amazing character it is old, also modest But is equipped with everything you need for your stay. Arrive to a meadow that rolls down to the cottage built just steps away from the shore, listen to the loons call and watch the bald eagles soar from island to island. This 60 feet of private lakefront is magical with a deck, a floating dock and fire pit. Trees for shade and also perfect to hang a hammock, Picnic table, with bbq, outdoor umbrella table set, couch set and even a new set of Jo4 Muskoka chairs makes this a perfect getaway. The fishing is world class and sure to impress any angler or just a first timer! The water is crystal clear, The shore is shallow and Sandy - the best swimming can be found off the end of the dock (no diving) Shallow Water! With a great golf corse and winery with farm restaurant only steps away you can cook and picnic or head out for a great food and drink experience- no car necessary!
This property is sure to produce an authentic Kawarthan cottage experience.

The location of the cottage was beautiful and we very much enjoyed the waterfront location. Although, the water is very weedy so not really great for kids to swim in. The canoe had no seats so was difficult to actually use. No life jackets were provided for the canoe or paddleboat. The listing advertised wifi but it didn’t actually have any. The host suggested we make personal hotspots off our own phones which we did and did work. But not as advertised. The floors of the cottage are extremely sloped and there is evidence of the roof leaking with stained and broken ceiling tiles. The bathroom was functional but definitely not luxury. Take very quick showers as you only get a couple of minutes of hot water. The kitchen had everything you needed. There was no propane in the bbq when we arrived. But the host did send us some money so we could go get it filled. The host was very responsive to us and very easy to deal with. We knew that this property was not luxury when we rented it. We really wanted the waterfront location to which it did not disappoint. But the cottage itself was a bit rougher than we were anticipating. We still enjoyed our stay but in all honesty would probably not stay again.
