About this property
Lakefront cottage w/private dock, firepit, and grill located on all sports lake
Welcome to Turtle Haven! Once enjoyed by the hosts themselves where they made lasting memories as a family and hope the same for you!
The cottage offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a large deck (plus balcony) overlooking all-sports School Section Lake with plenty of outdoor seating for enjoying lake views. Make smores by the firepit, grill up some dinner, play yard games (some provided) in the grass, swim off the dock (private boat ramp also avail if requested), or swim at the private beach 3 doors down.
Enjoy the home like it's your own. Smoking not permitted inside. Plenty of space for playing yard games during the day and enjoying the firepit at night. Can even work from "home" with wifi provided. Complimentary firewood will be provided. New in 2025 - Updated Water Filtration System - after several reviews about the water hardness/smell, we've added a new Culligan system with water that's great for drinking, bathing, etc.
The property is located among other houses on the lake with neighbors. Please drive slowly as you turn into the community and watch for children, pets, and those walking. It's a very friendly community with many nearby amenities such as Hixons grocery, Conley's bakery for donuts and more. There's parking for three vehicles on property.
Please check out the binder when you arrive for our favorite spots near the cottage! There's great golf nearby at Tullymore and St. Ives, Buckley's canoe livery, and two wineries within a short driving distance if you're looking for additional activities throughout your stay.

Great lakefront home, perfect for memories with friends and family. Enjoy the large deck overlooking the lake, firepit, grill and more.
