Part of the Enhabit collection, Black Oak Lodge is situated on top of 100 foot tall granite escarpment. It's a modern waterfront property, professionally designed and architected to be more than the traditional cottage. Relax in complete privacy on your own 50 acre private estate surrounded by nature as you enjoy hotel-style amenities and Endy mattresses in every bedroom. Enjoy thousands of feet of private shoreline on the deep, clean waters of Canoe Lake. Great for families and group trips.

Wildlife & Play: Frequent sightings of Deer, Foxes, and Herons. Large flat lawn optimized for family lawn games, a dedicated fire pit, and BBQ station for outdoor dining.

The Water

Lakeside Prime: Over 1,000 feet of private shoreline on Canoe Lake, a deep (160ft), spring-fed lake environmentally protected for its purity and lake trout.

The Ridge Walk: A beautiful 2-3 minute walk down a landscaped escarpment trail leads to your private waterfront.

Waterfront Play: 160 sq. ft. cedar floating dock equipped with Muskoka chairs and a deep-water ladder.

The Fleet: Complimentary Canoes, Kayaks, and Stand-Up Paddleboards (SUPs) provided for exploring the 7km lake. Boat launch nearby.

Other things to note:

Pet Fee: $100 for a maximum of two dogs under 35 pounds. (As with all rural Ontario, we recommend not letting dogs off leash if you are unfamiliar with ticks in wooded areas).

If bringing multiple or larger dogs, please send us a request prior to arrival. Dogs are to be kept off all furniture. Damage fees will be applied if any furniture or floors are damaged.

We unfortunately cannot accommodate cats due to an allergy.

Watercraft Use
If you would like to use the watercraft, please do so with adult supervision, and ensure life jackets are always used, and boat life safety canister is present in kayak or canoe.

Road Maintenance
Please note that the property is in a rural setting and while the road is maintained in the winter with a plow, we are not the only client, and as such cannot guarantee the exact timing of plowing runs. We highly recommend winter tires and awd. While most guests have no issues, we will not be responsible if any drivers get stuck or are unfamiliar with how to handle snow covered roads.

Please confirm conditions prior to departing to ensure you are comfortable driving.

This property is absolutely stunning and so thoughtfully designed. It has all the amenities and comforts you could need, set in a beautiful natural environment. The modern design, open layout, and cozy seating areas made every part of our stay comfortable and inviting. The home is very clean and clearly well cared for, with every room decorated and furnished with comfort in mind.The waterfront access is a bit of a challenge due to the slope, but the owners have done an excellent job maintaining the path, and once you’re down there, the clear water and total privacy make it more than worth it. The long, bumpy drive in might feel like a trek, but as soon as you arrive you realize it’s part of the experience, and you won’t want to leave once you’re there.It was the perfect spot for our team retreat of 9 people, giving us space to both work and relax. We had everything we needed, and the mix of comfort, style, and nature made it unforgettable.

A true retreat

We had a lovely time as a family sharing this beautiful vacation rental. The property is elegant and well-maintained, there is good climate control inside, and the beds are comfortable. The lake is crystal clear and pristine, and we did a lot of swimming and used the canoe and kayaks. Getting to the lake was easy for all but one of our group, who has mobility issues; access is down a long hill with a pea gravel path. Overall, it was a lovely cottage holiday and we would recommend it to friends.
