About this property

Beautiful Sunset-Facing 6-Bedroom Cottage & Boathouse on Central Lake Rosseau

Set on a quiet bay in central Lake Rosseau, this beautiful year-round estate faces due west, enjoying beautiful, windless sunsets all year. We also get sun first thing in the morning; it's exceedingly rare to get both on the lake.

Post-and-beam structures and reclaimed barn-board floors epitomize Muskoka living. Six bedrooms, two open kitchens, two wood-burning and one gas fireplace, cathedral-ceiling living room, wrap-around decks, boathouse bar, 4 50+" HD TVs, enormous campfire pit, hot tub, private boathouse condo, and much more.

Just five minutes from Port Sandfield by land or lake. 10 minutes from Port Carling. Easy access to Lake Joseph via Joe River or Port Sandfield. 5 minutes from the spa at JW Marriott. Fantastic combination of location and luxury.

As of 2023, we now have Bell Fibe (fibre internet). It's hard to believe, but the internet is better than a Toronto office building. You can "work from home" with ease.

The property is occupied year-round. It’s a wonderful fall or winter getaway. Please note the outdoor plumbing - including the hot tub - must be shut down for the winter.
