About this property

Richview on Morrison Lake, Gravenhurst - Muskoka

Located at the gateway to Muskoka, the cottage is less than a two-hour drive from Toronto. Richview is in a calm bay on Morrison Lake with 110 feet of lake frontage, faces east and is under an acre in size. It has a large level lawn that leads all the way to the sandy shoreline with a shallow waterfront; perfect for children to play and be safe. Swimming or fishing from your dock is a relaxing way to spend an afternoon.

The beach runs the full width of the property, a 110 feet of sand, perfect for building sandcastles on.

Enjoy exploring the lake by kayak, canoe or paddleboat. Challenge your friends to a game of horseshoes. Access FREE WIFI internet, play board and card games, and enjoy movies on DVD or Satellite TV. At night, roast marshmallows by the outdoor fire pit - some wood is provided; and best of all, enjoy star-gazing, you can even see the Milky Way on most nights.

Fishing on the lake is good, with large and small mouth bass, perch, muskie and pike. There is room at the dock if you'd like to bring your own boat, the boat launch is at the end of North Morrison Lake Road (1km down the road). But most renters just enjoy fishing right at the end of the dock.

It was a great experience being on Morrison Lake, and staying at the Richview cottage. There was just so much to do and see! Our Grandsons and their grandpa loved the jump in the lake first thing after waking up. The amenities where great. The big property allowed the boys to kick their soccer ball. Fish were caught right off the dock. And were cooked and enjoyed by everyone. Smores around the fire, and bike rides, kayaking, canoeing, and tubing behind our boat were also good times.

Nice family trip

It was really nice to stay at Richview. The property was exactly what we wanted - quiet, private, waterfront cottage. We enjoyed the beautiful view and had fun fishing. My toddlers also enjoyed playing with the sandplay set that was available there. The only complain I have is the bunkbed I used because it was really uncomfortable due to sagging.

This property is in a serene peaceful setting. Beautiful waterfront with access to different water toys. The cottage is nicely furnished also and we have a nice view of the lake. It is well furnished with everything you need in the kitchen. Do had to be reminded though to bring our sheets and towels. Unfortunately there was a long power outage of over 18 hours that did put a damper on our stay. Luckily we had a plug in cooler and we used the car not to loose some of our food. Though it was out of the anyone's control it took away from our stay as the heat was quite bothersome all through the evening and the night. We do have a little dog with heart issue and heat is hard on her. Rick did come later the next morning to install a generator for the fridge and the water pump. That helped as without those things would really have been problematic. We were reimbursed the dog fee and given some money for our breakfast the morning when we drove into Gravenhurst. We truly enjoyed the setting and facilities. Such a beautiful area of our great country!

Richview Getaway

Three generation of our family really enjoyed our cottage stay. The cottage was well appionted, the access to the lake was easy for all ages and the outdoor space amazing. We only had one rainy day which took us into Gravenhurst for their great famers market; wonderful straberries and corn! Cara was a very attentive host and was quick to respond to any questions we had. Would definetly recommend Richview to other families.

Richview on Morrison Lake

Richview is an older cottage surrounded by mature trees that provide lots of shade but also block the sunlight from filtering in through the windows of the cottage and reaching the large expanse of lawn leading to the water. The waterfront was well maintained and the dock provided fishing and swimming opportunities. Kayaks were great fun. Having a fire pit was a nice touch and although we were unable to use the gazebo because the weather was not good, it would be nice to enjoy a meal there.

This is an older cottage. It has great access to their dock (down a grassy hill) with a nice fire pit. However the neighbours are very close and a lot of these cottages were undergoing construction so it was noisy. We left a day early due to a power outage that lasted 48 hours. We didn’t know how long it would be out for but this cottage at these rates should be equipped with a generator because without it, you are now camping. No running water. No electricity. The hostess was very organized and tried her best to be helpful. She said they hadn’t had a power outage in the summer in years but when you hear the neighbour’s generator going for hours, I think a generator should be a requirement if you want clients to return. Global warming is here to stay.

Fabulous Cottage

Immaculate is the first word that comes to mind. Everything was spotless, from the fridge to the bbq. The kitchen is well-stocked, the bed was super comfy and the cottage itself is bright and cozy. And outside - a nice, flat lawn leads down to the water and the dock. So many places to lounge - in sun or shade. Lots of adirondack chairs for lake viewing. The host was very friendly and kept me informed about a minor issue that arose. Very professional. My only issue was that the deck is not safe for toddlers or young children. There are large gaps in the railing that a child could easily fall through. I would have loved to have brought my grandson if the deck was more secure. Other than that, we (my dog and I) had a fabulous week and hope to return next summer.

We enjoyed our stay at Richview. It is right on the lake -- which is what we were looking for and the water was great for swimming .We had three boys with us and the house was a great size for that. There was even potentially room for one more on a sofa in the living room. The cove was quiet and relaxing. Our boys loved being able to take out the kayaks, paddleboard and paddleboat. We loved the deck and made use of the grill on the deck and the kitchen appliances. Everything worked well. The fire pit was large and perfect for s'mores and the large Adirondack chairs around it and near the lake got a lot of usage. It was very very hot a couple of days and that made for some rough sleeping one night, but we requested an extra fan from the host and she was very responsive and that made it easier. The plumbing worked well and the place was easy to stay in and keep clean. We have a dog who sheds a lot and we took her with us so we appreciated the cleaning supplies in the cottage that helped us keep up with that. Overall 5 stars. We enjoyed our time and hope to return.

Ruhige Auszeit am See

Wer Ruhe sucht ist in Caras "Richview" gut aufgehoben. Für 4 Personen ist das Haus perfekt. Cara ist eine sehr sympathische und zuvorkommende Gastgeberin. Sie ist gut erreichbar und hat den ein oder anderen Tipp für Ausflüge in der Region parat. Das Haus ist einfach aber ausreichend eingerichtet. Am See warten Kanu und Kajaks, sowie ein Tretboot auf die sportlichen Gäste (mit etwas Kondition schafft man die Runde um den ganzen See in gut 2 Stunden). Mücken und Bremsen (Blackflys) sind leider ständige Begleiter. Europäer bevorzugt ;-). Einkaufen kann man hervorragend im Supermarkt in Gravenhurst. Hier bekommt man alles was das Herz begehrt. Allerdings sollte man nichts vergessen, weil je Fahrtrichtung eine halbe Stunde drauf geht. Wir haben die Zeit am Lake Morrison sehr genossen!

What a wonderful vacation we spent at rich view. The cottage and property were perfect for our family, with the large front lawn in front of the water as well as all the fun activities the little ones could do like swinging, swimming, fishing and playing in the sand. We also made good use of the canoe, kayaks and pedal boat. Cara and Richard were a delight to interact with and were quick to respond to our inquiries. Highly recommend this place especially for families with young ones.
