The space
To our knowledge, the Lakehouse is the only rental property on McKay Lake. So the only people you'll meet are other owners, their families and friends. This small to medium sized lake warms up quick. You'll find it to be a very clean lake excellent for swimming and fishing. Only 2 hours from the GTA and 20 minutes from Bracebridge (major shopping) it is perfectly situated; not too far, but far enough!
I you book for a long weekend we can accommodate an extension on either side of your rental.
