About this property
<br>Pretty Muskoka cottage and deck close to lake.
Note ….please, click ‘inquire’.DO NOT 'request to book' (which does not allow a “pre-book” dialogue , which we always have to answer questions). We will respond very promptly to all inquiries,.
Note - the rate is so low because it is for our minimum of 31 consecutive nights. You may find however that it is less expensive to rent our place for 31 nights than to rent elsewhere for 2 weeks.
Nice family cottage near Algonquin Park- pretty, private, fully equipped, 3 bedroom, fireplace, BBQ, 2 kayaks/paddles/life preservers, big hammock right on edge of lake, binoculars, bird feeders,deck and dock both have tables/chairs/umbrellas/tiki torches/flowers,. Trail, with tree house, clear deep water, great SW view, sun from 11 AM. Queen , double, and bunks. Parking for 3 cars, Free firewood, and spring drinking water. Perfect!.
Notes : deep water for diving and boat mooring, but not good for non- swimmers (rocky shore).
: Other boats can be rented nearby and often are delivered.
: Public beach and boat launch are 5 miles away in town of Dwight Ontario.
: To keep rates low cleaning is required before leaving unless otherwise
arranged .
: Renters must sign a contract with me,
: No smoking in or out.
: Hard to find a cottage on a large lake that is situated so close to the lake, with preferred SW exposure, clear water for great swimming, privacy, private dock with tiki torches, shaded deck with tiki torches, nice sunsets, kayaks, quiet bay, and just 2 1/2 hours from Toronto.

About the area
Dwight
Located in Lake of Bays, this cottage is on the waterfront. The Acres Driving Range and Ragged Falls are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Oxtongue River-Ragged Falls Provincial Park and J. Albert Bauer Provincial Park. Kayaking and snorkelling offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking and cycling nearby.

About the host
Hosted by John
We are the original owners of this place, our family cottage.We are currently looking for a family interested in a month rental at a low rate.
Why they chose this property
This cottage has what you really want.
Does it have an enormous kitchen with an enormous granite counter, an enormous TV, and enormous price? No - if you really need those, stay home because you are not a cottage person. But if you just want to be happy...this is the place for you.
What it does have is a rare close-proximity to the water, so you can fall asleep listening to the lapping of the water. Few realize the importance of directional exposure until they rent a place that has no sun all afternoon and no sunset.
