Nestled in Haystack Bay on beautiful Lake of Bays, this four season cottage offers a luxurious, tranquil escape in the heart of Muskoka. Surrounded by towering pines, it is located just on the water’s edge, boasting a spacious deck for entertaining, or for solitude where you can listen to the lapping of the water and calls of the loons. With a large dock with west-facing exposure, it’s a perfect spot to soak up the sun during the day, and catch glorious sunsets in the evening. FREE Parking.
The space
Please note, during the nine weeks of summer (June 28 to August 30), there is a seven-day minimum rental, from a Saturday 4pm check-in to a Saturday 10am check-out.
This charming, cozy, fully-renovated and fully-equipped cottage sleeps six, with one large bedroom boasting two sets of Twin-XL bunk beds, and a master bedroom with a Queen-sized bed. Includes all your linens, pillows, bath and hand towels, wash cloths and all kitchen linens. All you need is your beach towels.
The gorgeous, updated kitchen features waterfront views, as does the living area. The three-piece bathroom has been tastefully designed and decorated.
The waterfront is sandy, making it easy to get into the water – and with ideal swimming conditions off the end of the dock with a rapid drop-off. A beautifully-designed fire pit area allows guests to experience traditional ‘cottage nightlife’ of roasting marshmallows, making s’mores, listening to the calls of the loons, and counting the stars.
