Great area!

Beatrice was so kind and accommodating. The property was perfect, lots of outdoor space, and a large dock to lounge on all day. The cottage itself has everything you need, and was clean and tidy. Will certainly book again in the coming years.

Enjoyed our stay

Cottage was as advertised. An older cottage with modern touches, not fancy, but very functional. Queen bed could use a new mattress a it was soft and a bit lumpy but twins were ok. We enjoyed our stay.

The cottage is very nice but somewhat small. Beatrice is a very nice host and she looks after any problem you may have at the time. The beach and swimming area are very nice as well. The dock is great and it might be the largest in the Gravenhurst area.

Delightful and relaxing

I had a delightful time during my week at this cottage. The location in Gravenhurst on Muskoka Bay is beautiful. Sitting on the deck I was able to see the Segwun and her sister ship Wenonah cruise by at regular intervals. Having morning coffee there was especially enjoyable, as I was often visited by black squirrels, red squirrels, song birds, and mallards. My favorite visitors were the loons, circling the bay in the early morning and again as dusk approached. Sometimes they would wail out a cry that might be mistaken as mournful to those unfamiliar with this Muskoka regular. Muskoka Bay remains fairly calm even when steady winds dissuade boats from the larger water on the lake. For a small additional fee I rented the boathouse which easily fit my 20 ft. bowrider. There was also a canoe and paddle boat available for renters who wanted a slower or quieter mode of transportation. The warf at Gravenhurst is only a few minutes away by either car or boat, and offers tourist type shopping as well as several charming restaurants. The owner lives next door and is a helpful, accommodating host. There was a beautiful gift basket on the table when I arrived with a nice white wine, popcorn, kit-kats, and my favorite - Bea's homemade blueberry jam. Blueberries grow wild in Muskoka, and the blueberry jam immediately reminded me of my childhood; picking the berries in the bush and bringing them home to my grandmother who would transform them into the most magical blueberry pie. Everything about the cottage seemed to share a bit of that Muskoka magic, and although each summer I find myself a year older, a week in Muskoka always seems to rejuvenate the body and soul. Thank you Beatrice for a wonderful Muskoka vacation!

Lovely rustic cottage

Lovely rustic cottage with good swimming and a shady beach for young kids. Excellent location, close to Gravenhurst. Use of kayaks and paddle boards added to enjoyment of lake. Only rating four stars as cottage had a number of cobwebs and view of lake from cottage was obstructed by two boathouses which wasn’t clear from listing. Overall would recommend. Thanks for a nice cottage weekend.

Muskoka Vacation

This was an enjoyable week of relaxation that met all our expectations. The host, Beatrice, was wonderful in promptly helping us out with some items we'd forgotten. Our pets, Texas the cat and Tigger the Husky were also very pleased and relaxed and thoroughly entertained by the comings and goings of chipmunks. Except for one late afternoon, the weather was cooperative. The property is readily accessible to Gravenhurst for shopping and touring and is one we will likely consider for a return week.

Muskoka stay

Our family spent three days at this cottage. The owner is lovely, helpful, accommodating and is very open to answer all your questions .The waterfront was beautiful, with a shallow sand entry and at the end of the boat house deep water for swimming. Beautiful location and the lake was stunning. The cotragw was the right size for us. The cottage is a rustic cottage for those of you looking for the rustic cottage feel. For those with a fancier style this may not be for you . Thank you for the memories! We had a great time. Tracy

Lake Muskoka Cottage Rental

The overall experience was good. The cottage was pretty much as described. It was clean and the owner was there to welcome us and was quickly there to respond to our questions. The lake was beautiful. Only criticisms would be the washroom was small and access to the dock a little difficult.

Paradise at Parker's Point

We had a lovely stay at the cottage. We had a lovely gift basket waiting for us on the counter. Which we surely enjoyed. Beatrice was there to great us and if there was a problem, which there was not, she was a text away. We will be renting again, as there is a small beach area for the grandbabies and a nice three sided dock around the boat house to sit .

Hi and welcome,
My name is Beatrice and my family and I would like to invite you to spend some time at our cozy Muskoka cottage. We have spent the last 22 years on Lake Muskoka and think it is the best place on earth. If you need anything during your stay, feel free to give me a call. I love sharing my favourite places and recommendations with my guests to ensure they enjoy everything Muskoka has to offer.

Why they chose this property

This cottage has something for everyone! It has a shallow sandy beach for kids, dock for sunbathing, deeper water for swimming, BBQ on the deck and comfortable interior. My family and I renovated it top to bottom so everything is clean and fresh! The open concept layout is great when the family is inside and the cozy stone fireplace adds charm to the space. Kids, pets, all are welcome!
