Miles Landing - Waterfront Cottage in Kawartha Lakes (Gull River)

Welcome to your waterfront escape on the Gull River in the Kawartha Lakes (Norland).

Our 3000 square foot family-friendly cottage on the water makes for the perfect escape. Enjoy your morning coffee with a spectacular view of the water, have a family game night in the rec room with movie theatre style popcorn, and end your night around the fire making s'mores.


The open concept main level includes a large kitchen with an oversized island, dining area, and a living room with fireplace - all to which opens up to the large wrap around deck; making it a perfect space to enjoy a meal and the view.

The deck off the main level includes a BBQ, Blackstone Grill, outdoor dining area for 8 and a separate seating area for lounging.

The basement level is perfect for relaxing and spending time with your family. There is a sectional that can be pushed together to make the perfect space to cuddle up and watch a movie. Enjoy the array of board games, puzzles, and books that are available or challenge your friends/family to a game of pool. The basement also features a full bathroom (with bathtub), a bunk room/playroom for children (toys, crafts, and many baby essentials are available), as well as 2 additional bedrooms. This area walks out to the back yard/dock (door equipped with a chime alarm to alert if children go outside).

The River: Our space is perfectly situated on an inlet of the Gull River. Shallow entry off the rocks or deep enough to enjoy swimming in the water or floating on the lily pad mat. This small area does not allow motorized boats (with the boat launch only a five minute drive away); making it an ideal spot for children to swim or for you to enjoy the kayaks/paddle board peacefully. If you are bringing a motorized watercraft, the boat launch at Balsam Lake will allow you to access the Trent Severn Waterway.
