About this cottage rental
Get away from it all to a luxurious lakefront vacation retreat. Welcome to “The Hut in the Jungle” (yes there is a fun story behind the name), an executive family escape two hours drive from Toronto but a world away. Located on Salmon Lake, near the charming villages of Kinmount and Bobcaygeon, it’s a four-season wonderland. With five bedrooms and three bathrooms and gourmet kitchen, all the luxuries are here waiting for you to relax, unwind, play and explore.
The lake is a Kawartha gem, with crystal clear water and great fishing for bass and lake trout. Explore with the kayaks, paddle boat, canoe and stand-up paddle board. There is excellent swimming right off the expansive floating dock.
In the evening gather around the stone fire pit overlooking the lake.
The lakefront retreat features stunning timber-framing, and vaulted ceilings. There is a large designer gourmet kitchen, well equipped and featuring a six-burner range top and double wall ovens. A large centre island is ideally suited for preparing meals together. An oversized Weber barbecue is provided as well.
The dining room table extends to seat up to 12 people.
The large living room has a vaulted ceiling with a ceiling fan, and is flooded with natural light from high south-facing windows. With panoramic lake views, the room has comfortable leather couches and reclining chairs. The centrepiece is a wood burning stone fireplace.
A 60 foot elevated deck runs the width of the building, with outdoor dining and sitting areas to relax with a drink and a book.
There are five bedrooms with sleeping for 10 adults. If you travelling with babies or small children we can provide a crib and bassinet.
The lovely screened porch with a ceiling fan is a comfortable place to relax or gather and has a futon that converts to an additional queen bed if needed.
A recreation room on the lower level has a walkout to the lake, couches and recliner, and features a large OLED TV with satellite TV and streaming services.
In short, a luxurious escape, not far but a world away.

What a fantastic cottage to rent. Incredibly well stocked and really nice on the inside. Lots of rooms and good space to have lots of people come together for the weekend. Beautiful lake and surrounding area. Mona was very responsive and helpful during the whole process. 5 stars

This was our second year staying at this amazing cottage. Brian and Mona are so wonderful to deal with. Our family group ages ranged from 20 months to 86 years old. No issues for anyone. The layout of the cottage works so well for us. My children and grandchildren (4 adults and 4 toddlers) take over the lower level and have more than enough room. Everything is organized and well thought out in the kitchen. All the furniture is comfortable for sitting and sleeping. The screened in porch is a lovely place to spend the evening. I highly recommend this cottage!

By unanimous vote, the "Hut in the Jungle" (as the cottage is known as) is officially the best one my family has visited in the past several years. The hosts are responsive, and provide detailed information that make the stay easy and enjoyable. Plus a generous welcoming package that is greatly appreciated! The cottage is loaded with amenities that make a large group (12 people) stay very fun and comfortable. Loads of watercraft, and in-water floaties plus a large deck to sunbathe on. The lake itself is gorgeous and pretty quiet. Clean water and decent fishing for the anglers in the group. Definitely on the must return to list!

The property is beautiful, the home is gorgeous. Everything is well maintained. Tons of amenities. The hosts are super gracious and kind. The listing is totally accurate and there are lots of clear instructions for everything from access to location, house rules, how to use stuff, etc. It was a super awesome stay, plenty of room for 12+ people. Thanks so much!
