About the property:

Very private cottage on a small bay of a larger lake. Only one neighbour, surrounded by crown land. Main cottage has one master bedroom with king bed, newly renovated bathroom with shower and laundry, kitchen including a small dishwasher, dining room, and living room. Bunkie has two bedrooms each with a queen bed, as well as a half-bathroom. Access to the water both from the dock and from the sandy beach. Living room has a pull-out couch to accommodate more guests. Guests can enjoy satellite TV as well as a collection of DVDs and boardrooms on those rare rainy days (we also provide an HDMI cable should you want to bring a computer with your own movies and TV shows). 

Guests coming with kids can enjoy the sandy beach which is shared with the single neighbour (our family). There is a platform which you can swim up to and jump off of, and we also have a canoe and 2 kayaks which you may use at your own responsibility (please bring your own life jackets to ensure best fit). If you have any dogs, please feel free to bring them along! Our two pups love running around the 2 acres of property. 

With a private driveway, and close access to Mactier complete with a grocery store, hardware store, LCBO, and wood-burning pizza restaurant, you will always have the necessities near at hand. Further, with little traffic, there is excellent terrain for walk with your entire family. Port Carling is also only a 40 minute drive away, with many shops and restaurants - enjoy a day out experiencing Muskoka culture! If you would like some nightlife, you can visit the same Port Carling, or travel only 10 minutes further to Bala, both with excellent bars and clubs. 

Our property is very picturesque, with the cottage sitting directly on the Canadian Shield, and over 650 feet of waterfront. Enjoy breakfast as the sun comes up over the bay, surrounded by crown land. Or sip your morning coffee from the peacefulness of the Muskoka chairs by the lake. On a clear night, the stars are phenomenal, influenced by no light pollution. When it starts to get a little chilly, or you just want to roast some marshmallows, feel free to make use of our outdoor, antique wood stove where you can safely enjoy a fire with your family and friends (subject to local fire regulations).

Jessica & Adam McCabe

I grew up going to the cottage next door, which my grandparents still own to this day! My husband and I live in Kitchener. We met at Queen's University, where we earned a math degree together. I now work in commercial real estate and he works in e-commerce. We have 2 dogs, named George and Liz, who enjoy the cottage as much as we do!

We bought this property off of my grandparents in 2016. Owning this cottage allows us to enjoy an area that I have been going to my entire life! Now, we can share this space with our guests!

The cottage property faces southwest, allowing for all-day sun exposure on different parts of the property and the view of a beautiful sunset every evening, from perfectly positioned Muskoka chairs. The sandy beach is perfect for smaller children, and the swimming dock allows for older kids (and adults) to have fun jumping into the water. Being on the bay means that is is quiet, but the large lake allows for boating.
