About this property
Spectacular Log and Timber Frame Retreat
Enjoy your vacation in this unique and inspired all-season Canadian cottage. A complete oasis and architectural dream, you’ll enjoy not only the privacy of this lavish retreat nestled inside a calm and quiet bay, which boasts 4,500 feet of waterfront with a sandy beach on 111 private acres, but also the many activities which are included with the cottage such as: kayaking, canoeing, paddle boating, firepit, putting green, horseshoe pits, and bocce ball. Enjoy swimming, fishing, boating in the pristine water (motorboat and Sea-Doo rental nearby), or enjoy a round of golf just minutes away at The Ridge at Manitou (one of the most stunning courses in Canada). Relax with a morning coffee or glass of wine on the floating dock steps from your door, lounge with a book on a Muskoka chair, nap swinging gently in a hammock, or exercise your culinary muscles using a charcoal kamado and propane BBQ conveniently located under one of four covered porches. Indoors, play a game of pool or relax by the bar in front of a large screen TV. In fall, take advantage of the breathtaking colors of the Canadian forest, or enjoy a long hike through the various wooded trails on the expansive property. Winter lovers will enjoy the beauty of the outdoors by trekking through the trails by snowshoe, cross country skiing (ski club minutes away at the Parry Sound Cross-Country Ski Club), or try your hand at some ice fishing, snowmobiling (rental nearby and main trails that pass through the lake), ice skating/hockey on the frozen lake, or simply snuggle up by the log-burning fire. No matter the season, this retreat has something for everyone.

About the host
Hosted by Ralph Rossdeutscher

This property is my favorite place in the world. The cottage was completed in 2007 and was a labor of love as we designed it and watched it become a reality at the hands of many master craftsmen. Due to the size and location it has been a fantastic place to relax and enjoy family.
Why they chose this property
Perfectly situated with southern exposure on a secluded and expansive piece of Canadian wilderness, this rare log and timber frame home's beauty is unparalleled. From the to the exquisite detail in the timber architecture, to the sunsets over the pristine lake, this is a dream vacation location for your family you'll never forget.
