Kid-friendly lakefront family cottage (4br, 3ba) on 11 acres with swim-off dock

Comfortable and modern family cottage with A/C, chef's kitchen, 4 BR, 2.5 Baths, gas fireplace, stunning views, with 200m of shoreline on Bennett Lake, located on 11 acres of forest on a private road. Outdoor amenities include a toddler playground with sandbox; canoe, kayaks, life vests and paddles; expansive deck with outdoor dining; fire pit.

The cottage is typically a summer home for our young family (4, 2, and 0 years old kids) so it is very safe and well-equipped for babies and children with a crib, pack-and-plays, high chairs, baby gates, cupboard locks, toys and games for all ages.

Dog friendly as well, with a fenced in dog run out the kitchen door.

With four bedrooms, two pull-out couches, 2.5 baths, and lots of interior and exterior space, we are happy to host larger groups. Generally, in our hosting experience, two or three families with kids can fit comfortably.

Lakefront access with swim-off dock, rocky but clean shoreline, a variety of boats, and plenty of life jackets and water toys. Please note there is a long stairway down to the water, so not ideal for anyone with mobility issues.

Situated on 11 private acres with access by private road, the location offers total privacy and lots of wilderness to explore on the property. Beautiful and historic Perth is 15 minutes away, with a variety of great options for day trips as well as convenient shopping.

We are typically at our house in Ottawa or traveling when the cottage is available. If you're interested and schedules align, we're always happy to share a coffee on the deck at check in or check out.

We are always available by phone or text to answer questions or respond to emergencies. If anything at the cottage needs our attention, we can be there within an hour or two. As well, please ask for advice on fun kid-friendly trips and activities nearby!
