We all quickly fell in love with this amazing place. A beautiful and comfortable cottage, a perfect location, privacy, quiet most of the time, modern appliances, comfortable beds, clean, and, bonus of all bonuses, dogs welcomed!
The first clue that we had hit a jackpot came when our three-year-old spaniel madly ran around the property for 5 minutes when we arrived… like he had found heavens. We were 4 adults, one child, and the spaniel, and we had plenty of space, in or outside of the buildings.
Two sides of the cottage face the lake and both sides have a deck - which are connected. The deck closest to the kitchen has a large wooden table that will comfortably sit 6 people, with a great Napoleon BBQ. The deck off the living / dining room has a smaller breakfast table and lounging chairs, and there are other loungers and Muskoka chairs on the property.
Our 8-year-old granddaughter had a blast exploring the site, playing on the dock, catching (and releasing) minnows and frogs, kayaking (BYO PFD for proper fit), or in the water with everyone else. Our 81 year old mother needed help to walk around the property as it is not flat, but she did go in the water every day. Cyclists will need a touring bike for the gravel road – as I did, (I made it up the hill going out!) or, drive out to the paved roads with your road bike and ride Healey Lake road to Georgian Bay. There is a tennis court near the marina close by if tennis is your thing, but we never used it so enquire first – there may be a fee. The owners are very friendly, easy going, accommodating, and, pay attention to details, right down to the flower beds on the property. They obviously love this place - and so did we.
