About this property

Tranquil, cozy cottage just steps from the river with miles of boating fun!

Looking for a relaxing getaway? Enjoy your stay at one of 2 tranquil cottages on this spacious property, Riverbend and Riverside Cottages, just steps away from the beautiful Magnetewan River. Or rent both cottages for a large family get together! Located just a few kilometers from Burks Falls and only 45 kilometers from Huntsville you can enjoy the cottage life with many amenities just a short distance away.

Our cottages are the perfect mix of charm and modern details. Both cottages and facilities are fully wheelchair accessible so everyone can be included. The single level cottage is spacious and tidy and provides lovely views of the river. We hope that you feel right at home in the cozy living room, fully equipped kitchen, and comfortable bedrooms. Bedding and towels are provided and are thoroughly washed between guests. We do ask that you bring your own toiletries and beach towels, as well as drinking water.
Though the property and dock are shared between the two cottages, each has a spacious deck and fire pit allowing for privacy. We have the luck of being just moments from beautiful Lake Cecebe by car or boat, and just 1km from the wonderfully unique Midlothian Castle and Screaming Heads.

In summer bring your boat, or rent one, to take full advantage of the 100 kilometers of amazing boating at the doorstep. Enjoy canoeing, kayaking, fishing, or swimming in the river or one of the many local lakes. Located just 48 kms from world renowned Algonquin park, take a day trip to enjoy the beautiful vistas on one of the many hiking and 4-wheeling trails. Take advantage of one of the many local farmers markets on a quiet weekend in Burk’s Falls, Magnetewan or Emsdale or a picnic at High Rock in Sundridge. Enjoy golf? Take your skill to one of the many local golf courses. If you are an equestrian or horse lover visit nearby Coughlin Farms for a ride during any season, and if thrills are your thing enjoy Treetop Trekking or Ziplining at Hidden Valley. And end your day with a relaxing bonfire just outside your back door.

In winter, bring snowmobiles to enjoy the nearby OFSC District 10 snowmobile trails, voted some of the best trails in Ontario. Arrowhead Park, just 45 km away, provides wonderful outside skating and snowshoeing. Or enjoy the small-town charm of Magnetewan’s outdoor rink. If speed is your joy, then Hidden Valley provides downhill skiing.

We believe that pets are part of the family and welcome yours to enjoy the cottage! We do ask that you keep your pet under control and clean up after them as the surrounding property is shared.

We very much look forward to welcoming you to our beautiful cottages.

A wonderful cottage

Our group of adults and two little kids enjoyed our stay here very much. Chris was excellent at replying to questions, the cottage was clean and well-equipped, and the location was great (felt secluded but only 10 minutes from town). Our only complaint was the quality of the dock (it’s seen better days) but that didn’t stop us from having lots of fun swimming, canoeing and kayaking.

Chris was very responsive to all communication. Nice and quiet cottage. Spacious and came with all the kitchen necessities as listed. However, having air conditioning and net on the balcony (because of the mosquitoes) would've made the place more enjoyable. Chris let us use his canoe and fire pit. It was an overall pleasant stay for us.

The cottage was super cute and very clean. Very comfortable stay for our large family. The property and amenities were excellent and the communications with the owner was prompt.Unfortunately however, we were unable to use the bbq as the burners did not work and the bottom was rotted out. Also, we were aware that the water was non potable, however the strong odour was very unpleasant and off putting.

Great Spot on the Mag!

Really nice cottage, tons of room. Super close to Burks Falls for grabbing groceries. Had a small issue with water, however Chris was there in minutes to fix the problem. Bring your fishing gear 👍👍👍

Best vacation Ever!

Property is as listed! Clean, quiet, great host communication, and the feeling of cottage is to die for. Our family of 10 enjoyed our vacation thoroughly. Our youngest family member turned 3 on this trip! With tubing, swimming and fishing, we couldn't have had a better time! Thank you and see you next year!!

A fun getaway

It's a modern cottage but it's clean and the rooms are quite big. The river is just in front of the house so it's so convenient to go swimming and canoeing. We didn't have to go far to fish because there are fishes right where the cottage is. It was a fun overall experience. Chris, the owner was very nice and so accommodating.

Brilliant find on my part...perfect fit.

Looking for a nice lovely quiet place to have respite. And close to family town to visit. I've always wanted to see what living by the river was like. So quiet. Pretty. Stars for the gazing. Loads of blankets and bed and dishes and all. Green. Clean. Serene. Host very kind and helpful.

Cute and cozy

The cottage is very cozy and quaint and we were impressed with the cleanliness and location. It's right on a river and is super peaceful and picturesque. The location is only a few minutes from Burk's Falls. I only deducted a star because the water in the entire cottage smelled so strongly of sulfur from the waterlines that we couldn't wash or shower. We definitely understand a smell from well water at a cottage but this was overwhelming. That being said the owner was extremely communicative and I would book here again.
