About this property

Beautiful Sunset-Facing 6-Bedroom Cottage & Boathouse on Central Lake Rosseau

Set on a quiet bay in central Lake Rosseau, this beautiful year-round estate faces due west, enjoying beautiful, windless sunsets all year. We also get sun first thing in the morning; it's exceedingly rare to get both on the lake.

Post-and-beam structures and reclaimed barn-board floors epitomize Muskoka living. Six bedrooms, two open kitchens, two wood-burning and one gas fireplace, cathedral-ceiling living room, wrap-around decks, boathouse bar, 4 50+" HD TVs, enormous campfire pit, hot tub, private boathouse condo, and much more.

Just five minutes from Port Sandfield by land or lake. 10 minutes from Port Carling. Easy access to Lake Joseph via Joe River or Port Sandfield. 5 minutes from the spa at JW Marriott. Fantastic combination of location and luxury.

As of 2023, we now have Bell Fibe (fibre internet). It's hard to believe, but the internet is better than a Toronto office building. You can "work from home" with ease.

The property is occupied year-round. It’s a wonderful fall or winter getaway. Please note the outdoor plumbing - including the hot tub - must be shut down for the winter.

Wonderful cottage stay
We loved our stay. The hot tub, the kayaks, the shallow swimming area, the games, the boathouse darts and lounge areas, the magical outdoor dining, so many areas for family to gather together and chill with lots of space. The property is home to so much nature the only downside being the travelling geese and water fowl which visit often orherwise our stay was amazing and we can’t wait to return. Thank you Scott and family for your attentive hospitality and incredible welcome basket!!!!

Home Away from Home
The cottage and boat house are even more impressive in person, pictures don't do this place justice ! The cottage manual Scott provides once you have booked is perfect, it helps you think of things you may not have otherwise. Absolutely everything you can possibly need is there for you .... you really feel at home !! I was there with my family, my dogs and friends for Thanksgiving and the week after, all of us loved the space and cannot wait to go back again ! Thank you Scott and family for sharing your beautiful cottage and making our stay perfect !
