Charming Cottage In Muskoka, on Lake Joe, Minutes from Golf & Winter Activities
“Where memories are made that will last a lifetime!”
This charming family style cottage is located on Lake Joseph. Sitting on the south west side of picturesque Hamer Bay, at the very northern end of the lake . A much sought after vacation spot on the Muskoka Lakes. With 1800 square feet of cozy living space, it is a destination sure to make wonderful memories. It is a four season cottage that has been lovingly cared for, and awaits new guests.
Rocky Crest Golf Resort is at the top of the Bay, and offers all season activities, as well as multiple dining experiences.
Enjoy this peaceful spot with your family and friends, while your kids and pets splash in the wading area or swim in the deep water directly off the dock. From sunrise to sunset the view of the lake from a seat upon the dock is sure to bring the feels.
The seasonal screened in porch awaits your morning coffee, great conversation and game nights.
There is a gas grill on the deck with a view that has to be seen to be believed. Fire it up, cook up your favourite fare, and take it all in. Being at the lake makes you hungry.
The unfinished basement space is home to lifejackets, a lily pad, ring toss, ladder ball and a ping pong table for rainy day fun. Maybe a game of hide and seek.
Winter activities include snowshoeing & snowmobile trails minutes away as well as ice fishing meters off of the dock. The cottage stays as warm as toast, and the monolithic Muskoka stone fireplace centers the living room. Sitting in front of a cracking fire will be a favorite location. Grab a blanket and a book, or settle in for a movie watching night. You choose.
The main cottage is fully winterized and comfortably sleeps 11 including three bedrooms, two bathrooms plus a loft with multiple beds. Kids love this loft, but it may be a challenge to get them to go to sleep. There is too much fun to be had after all.
There is a separate cabin which has a lovely front porch. It is not winterized. There is a queen size bed and a single trundle bed, plus a bathroom including a combined shower and bathtub.
Between the main cottage and the lake sits a cozy bunkie which is not winterized but is equipped with electricity and bunk beds for five. It's like being back at youth camp. Oh the stories this bunkie could tell.
One canoe and two kayaks are just waiting to be set into the calm waters of the early morning, or any old time come to think of it. Perhaps a quiet swim might be more your thing, or a skinny dip. It's up to you.
Early morning reading with a warm cup of coffee or tea are sure to be enjoyed while swinging around on the dock side hammock.
High speed internet is available in all buildings including reaching the dock! You are a 3 minute drive, or 10 minute walk to Rocky Crest Resort, where fine dining or golf awaits. Other golf courses within driving distance are Seguin Valley Golf Club, Parry Sound Golf Club and The Ridge at Manitou.

This was the perfect cottage for our family reunion weekend. There were plenty of rooms and beds to accommodate our large group. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you’d need. And the dock can’t be beat for swimming and lounging. Thanks, Rhonda and Dean for sharing your wonderful gem!

Thank you for your beautiful review. You left the cottage in beautiful condition and we would absolutely love to have you and your family back to enjoy!
We had planned for our family to come down and meet the in-laws for the first time and thought we would show them the cottage life. This home is absolutely amazing! The views are beautiful and the communication was clear and consistent throughout the time we were there. Had an absolutely amazing time!

We needed great accommodations on Lake Joseph in order to access all of our Sons Wedding weekend functions. We brought our own boat to allow for easy transport to Rocky Crest Golf Club, Hair up do appointments in Parry Sound. This Vrbo rental was perfect. Way better than hotels and other options. Enough space for everyone. Super swimming and the extra cabins gave all guests privacy and space necessary for Black Tie wedding.

Thank you! I’m so glad this location and relaxed cottage vibe worked so well for you all!
This cottage was the perfect choice for our 80th birthday celebration with our kids and grandkids who live distances apart. Our son lives with his growing family in San Diego and we celebrate our times with them. There was ample room for all fifteen of us, to sleep, play, interact and have quality catch-up time. Everyone enjoyed the water with a great supply of toys. This accommodation was spotless and very welcoming with everything we needed provided. Our host, Rhonda was warm, approachable and responsive. The entire experience exceeded our expectations. Carol and Dan
