About this property

Private Island in Muskoka sleeps 14 AVAIL IN JULY

Soak in the splendor of the Muskoka’s at this one of kind island retreat. Located on Lake Muskoka this original Muskoka cottage was restored to its original beauty in 2007 offering all the amenities of modern living with the charm of a bygone era in Northern Ontario history.
The private island comes complete with some of the most incredible views of sunrise from your bed, the sunset from the dining room and fantastic star gazing from the bar on the dock. The indoor/outdoor fireplace offers great campfires for impromptu conversations, marshmallows and more.
With enough beds to sleep 14 guests in both private and shared accomodations, the island is perfect for large families, special events and corporate retreats. This island is so special, it would be great to share the experience, and required, we can provide additional services such as Culinary service, meal preparations, kitchen supplies and stock, cleaning and event staff.
There is everything you need to enjoy a summer vacation in Muskoka.
The sun shines on our sundock from 9am to 5pm daily and offers loungers and other seating for guests to soak up the sun or sit at the bar for drink. For those looking for adventure, the cottage comes with Kayaks, a peddle boat and some of the best fishing right off the dock. The infamous SWS Ski show is a 2 min boat ride into the bay every week. For those with small kids, there is a sandy beach that is protected from the elements adjacent to the large cedar playground. On this island, there is literally something for everyone.
Getting to the island is a short boat ride from mainland that offers a public boat launch for your boat. For those that require, a boat a rental is just a phone call away. The local businesses also offer private ski and wakeboard lessons, Jet Ski rentals and more.
When you need to connect to the world the cottage is equipped with wifi and satellite tv.
Due to the uniqueness of this property it is only available for limited weeks throughout the summer for a minimum of a 2 week rental period Thursday to Thursday. Check in is anytime after 4pm. Check out is 12pm.

Beautiful Location, Perfect Muskoka Cottage

We recently stayed at the Bristow's cottage and it was amazing. Plenty of room, separate bunkies for all the guests to sleep. The cottage was clean and tidy, dock bar was amazing! View was amazing. We all had a wonderful time.
Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2018

About the host

Hosted by News Island Muskoka

Host profile image
We have owned News Island for over 20 years. Since then we have taken on the daunting task of completely restoring the main cottage back to its original beauty, with modern amenities. It took us over 10 years complete the project, and we are excited to share the experience with others. The cottage has given us immense joy with our (3) young children, our extended family, and all our friends. We have spent countless hours around the fire, lots of days on the dock and hours in the boat exploring one of the most beautiful lakes in Ontario.
We have decided to explore other parts of Canada this summer with our kids, and are for the first time ever, making the cottage available for another family to enjoy this summer.

Why they chose this property

News Island is a small piece of paradise. The private island offers incredible lake views from every bed on the island. A show-stopping sunset that sets just outside the dining room down the moon river, and shooting star extravaganza experienced from the dock that you only see in movies.
There is something for everyone here. You can be busy and on the water, or do nothing and read a book on the screened in porch listening to the waves crash on the rocks.
For those who want to unplug, this is the place. But if you need to check in, catch up and other modern requirements, we can accommodate that too.

What makes this property unique

Enjoying life on an island, on one of the nicest freshwater lakes in Ontario is an experience that only some have had. This water access only property delivers a summer experience of a lifetime.
