Why they chose this property
We are located in a stunning area of Ontario, situated on the border of Muskoka and the Algonquin Highlands, allowing us to experience the best of both. We enjoy the magic and legendary appeal of Muskoka, as well as the breathtaking views, hiking trails, fishing, and wildlife of the Algonquin Highlands!
What makes this property unique
Our cottage overlooks beautiful Kawagama Lake. Enjoy your morning coffee on the upper deck then head down to the dock and soak-in the wood-fired hot tub after a refreshing dip in the lake. Fish for trophy Lake Trout, hike through Algonquin Park, or simply relax with family in our fully renovated, air-conditioned cottage. Getaway Bay is the ideal family vacation rental!
