This cottage is beautiful right on the lake with lots of great amenities to choose from!

Our family enjoyed our stay at this cottage, it is very clean, very well equipped with every kitchen essentials you would need! Beds and pillows are comfortable. They have catered to children with lots of activities to do outside, a fun tree house and toys and activities in the basement. The spot on the water is stunning, they have a lot of great options to sit and enjoy the scenery. Kids loved the lily pad, water trampoline and sand pit. This is an excellent spot for a family get away and some R&R!

Muskoka at it’s Best

Even better than expected! We arrived on Friday afternoon and Francine and Rob were there to greet us and help us become familiar with the property. During our three week stay we had family and friends join us. Everyone was comfortable and enjoyed the amenities…kayaking, paddle boarding, canoeing etc. We loved gathering at the table on the upstairs deck for our meals and watching the sun set from the screened porch. With so many seating options and fire tables to choose from, every night by the lake was different. It was a wonderful vacation and our hosts were very helpful and responsive. We have great pictures and fantastic memories to help us relive our stay at Birchwood cottage.

Everything you need!!

From the ease of booking to this exceptional cottage property, this was the highlight of my summer! We were met by the owners and provided a tour and everywhere you looked was a stunning view to the lake. The cottage, while not large in size, has great comfort and warmth with many places to sit and relax. The lake temperature was just ideal for a hot summers day and we enjoyed the floating pad and the dock just soaking it all in. Thank you for sharing this beautiful corner of paradise with us, we had a such a great week! Katie Lynch

Beautiful cottage and lake!

The cottage was easy to find by car and boat. The main cottage has been nicely renovated and had all the amenities you need for vacation. The outdoor section and screened-in portion of the boathouse were lovely too. The dock was great for the kids to jump off and swim and also to fish. The owners were involved with booking and check-in and it was very smooth. We look forward to returning in the future.

Beautiful cottage in a great location!

As soon as we walked in to the cottage, we were immediately impressed with the beautiful decor and cleanliness. We were even more impressed with the view as soon as we stepped onto the deck. We had an amazing time and would definitely go back! The only criticism we have, while it was not too much of a concern for us but may be a concern during really hot summer nights, is that there is no air conditioning. Although the owners left several fans throughout the house, which helped! It's also nice to keep the windows open to let the nice lake breeze in. Great for a small family (tree house is every kids dream!). We are looking forward to our next stay there!

Why they chose this property

No where in the world can you experience the breath taking views while feeling you are at home away from home. This gem of a cottage with a spectacular boathouse is everything you could want in a cottage, from the proximity to the water (a stone throw away), a gradual slope to the water, a large boathouse with a huge amount of deck space, perfect for relaxing with friends, and docking space for boat parking. In addition, this cottage is located on a very quiet dead end street so traffic and noise is minimal.
