About this property

Kawartha Lakes Cottage

Original Kawarthan cottage on the shimmering shores of Kathchewanooka lake.
This rustic cottage will take you back in time maybe to a more peaceful time, with stunning moonscapes, tranquil sunsets and clear blue skies. Although the building has amazing character it is old, also modest But is equipped with everything you need for your stay. Arrive to a meadow that rolls down to the cottage built just steps away from the shore, listen to the loons call and watch the bald eagles soar from island to island. This 60 feet of private lakefront is magical with a deck, a floating dock and fire pit. Trees for shade and also perfect to hang a hammock, Picnic table, with bbq, outdoor umbrella table set, couch set and even a new set of 4 Muskoka chairs makes this a perfect getaway. The fishing is world class and sure to impress any angler or just a first timer! The water is crystal clear, The shore is shallow and Sandy however throughout The summer the vegetation grows, and the best swimming can be found off the end of the dock (no diving) Shallow Water!
This property is sure to produce an authentic Kawarthan cottage experience.

Rustic Retreat
We rented this cabin for a girls weekend . The property was as advertised, rustic. But the water frontage , dock, location was beautiful. The correspondence with the property owner was seem-less . Water is not potable but the water coolers were convenient. Excellent outdoor space which was precisely what we wanted !

Lakefield
Nice quiet property, large grassy area, large shaded area. Easy access to Lakefield. Cottage is old, but in good repair. It is dark inside, with little outside light getting in. Makes for a cool cottage on the hottest days, but difficult to do anything in the cottage. Biggest negative is the lack of place to swim as shore is quite reedy.
