This is a cottage that is bound to become a firm favourite with its guests. Level lawns, a shallow walkout to the water; a bunkie for teen children, and a really comfortable cottage make for a great vacation package. Little Marble Lake is delightfully located near to Bon Echo Provincial Park and equidistant from Toronto and Ottawa making it a good base for families getting together. The woodland setting provides a nice amount of shade on the lawned area and a firepit is provided. The lake has shallow water entry Two paddleboards, two canoes, and 2 kayaks are included for on-water fun.The lake is small and best suited for non-motorised watercraft but boat rentals are available from the marina on nearby Mazinaw Lake for exploring within Bon Echo Provincial Park, for which a park pass is provided ( a value of up to $125 for a weekly rental)
The bunkie to the rear of the cottage has bunk beds and a TV & video/DVD player, and since there's an outdoor washroom adjacent to the bunkie, it makes it a self contained space for older children and teens. Inside the cottage, there's a wealth of pine and cedar and hardwood flooring throughout. This gives a warm ambience and a welcoming feel. The kitchen is well equipped with all the appliances and features needed to make the cottage a home away from home and the breakfast bar provides the opportuntiy for kitchen onlookers to applaud the efforts of the nominated cook.
Take morning coffee or aperitifs ( or both) in the screened sunroom as you enjoy the views across the water, then enjoy a meal at the high dining table that seats 8, before relaxing in the comfortable lounge to read the papers or watch some TV. Wherever you are in this cottage, you will feel pampered and at ease as the new owners have provided high quality furniture and furnishings throughout. The three bedrooms are supremely comfortable and linens are provided so guests will arrive to find the beds made up and ready for a good night's sleep. The master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with a shower, while the main bathroom is a nice size and has a tub with shower over. Overall, this cottage is one we know our guests will come back to again and again for summer vacations, fall weekends and winter breaks. For the active and not-so-active alike, the cottage and its location will delight and we are very proud to present it to our guests.
