      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.

      Property was as listed beautiful and airy. Perfect and what we expected
      Property was beautiful, great view saw lots of loons, ducks and frogs that my grandson likes. The swimming wasn't very good tho but 15 mins away too Lakefield there was a great public beach.

      It was ok
      We enjoyed our stay overall. The weather wasn’t great. The scenery and dock area are great. Nice quiet location and my dog absolutely loved the place. Was able to wonder leash free and dive into the water whenever he wanted lol. Now for the bad 😕. Wasn’t the cleanest place. The shower was nasty…used it once over the course of 3 nights (yuck). Lots of dust bunnies and the ceiling fan was furry lol. If I’m charged $125 for cleaning, should be clean. The house is super old, but it’s a cottage. Swimming is not good at all…seaweed has overwhelmed the area. Overall was a decent stay.

      Beautiful Property
      Lovely property and landscape. The cottage was exactly that - a cottage! Quaint and cozy, but with (almost) everything you need. FYI - BYO-coffee maker! The docks and fire pit were spacious and well cared for. Would recommend!
