Quiet Retreat for Nature Lovers - 4 Seasons, Pet Friendly, Secluded

Only 2 hours from Toronto, enjoy the quieter things in life at this 4 season cottage set on 5 acres of forested land with plenty of woods and waterfront to explore. Enjoy a canoe ride, go for a swim, take in the fall colours or sit in silence with the snow falling around you. End each day by watching the sun set and listen to the nearby wildlife come alive. Relax and take in what nature has to offer all year round on this quiet lake with plenty of privacy.

The cottage is one of three built on Long Lake surrounded by forest and is only 15 minutes from town. Quiet activities are preferred in this area and there are no motorboats or other loud water sports on the lake, nor is there noise from the neighbours. If you are looking for a quiet, relaxing and secluded getaway, this place is for you.

There are 3 spacious bedrooms with an open concept kitchen, living and dining space ideal for 1 or 2 families. Each bedroom has a queen bed and 2 of the rooms have a single sofa bed that can accommodate 1 person (ideal for a child). The space is well set up for families who enjoy a quiet getaway. There is an electric vehicle charger for your convenience (level 2). Tesla adapter required.

This is a 4 season cottage that can be enjoyed all year-round with electric baseboard and wood stove heating.

The town of Havelock is a 15 minute drive away and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The town has a pharmacy, Foodland for groceries, Tim Hortons, Hardware Store, LCBO, etc.

For those who like to go hiking, you can explore the cottage surroundings or the Petroglyphs Provincial Park (18 mins drive) or Warsaw Caves Conservation Area (25 mins drive).

Cyclists will love the quiet roads with few cars and lots of twists and turns. This is a great way to explore the area. (Roads are paved beyond the private entrance gate)

A great stay at the Lake House!

We had a great stay at the property. It is in a great, secluded location. We hiked in the area and it was a short trip into town if we needed anything. The cottage was very clean and equipped with everything we needed. A great place for family or friends to stay. We look forward to visiting again in the summer!

Amazing cottage.

We just got back from our week at the cottage. It was perfect for our family of 5. We all needed the down time and the time together just us and this cottage provided that. The quiet and the views were spectacular. We had the whole lake to ourselves! Sunsets are breathtaking. The cottage was clean and has everything you would need and the hosts are very responsive. We always rent cottages but this is the first time I said I would want to come back to this one.

Private paradise on the lake

I had three main criteria when looking for a vacation rental: 1. pet friendly; 2. on a lake; and 3. private with few or no neighboring properties. This cottage provided all three. We enjoyed our time down on the dock and on the water, as well as sitting on the deck listening to the Loons and watching the beautiful sunsets. We left the cottage only a few days to make a quick trip into Havelock to pick up some items we forgot or ran out of. Every person we met in town was friendly and welcoming. I wish we had been able to extend our stay so we could explore the surrounding area we originally planned. Chandra was a pleasure to work with and was quick to respond to my questions.

Everything we imagined and more

We had an incredible stay at this property. Beautiful spot with the privacy we wanted but also close enough to town to make quick stops in. Chandra was very helpful for check in and throughout our stay. The cottage faces west, so beautiful sunsets every night and great swimming all day. We will definitely be staying again!
