Large waterfront property with three cabins for one week summer rentals.

About the host
Hosted by Janet Allen
Our family has a five generation history on McKenzie Lake, it holds a very special place in our lives.
We have a family cottage near by that we have enjoyed for many years.
Alexanne Cottages is a newly acquired property for our family, it also has a long history on McKenzie Lake. I hope to soon create a book for each cabin with all its history for those that are interested.
With most families leading such busy lives, we hope to bring the uniting atmosphere that cottage living can bring to a family. I know it certainly does for our growing family.
We have been busy renovating and updating this beautiful property, and are now ready to share this experience with all of you!!

What makes this property unique
Beautiful secluded lake surrounded by crown land.
The gravel roads into the lake are well maintained (even in winter) approximately about a 13 minute drive off the main HWY 127 .
McKenzie Lake has a well maintain public boat launch very close to the cabins.
Being so close to Algonquin Park ( about 32km to east gate in Whitney Ontario) is a definite bonus to staying with us. Be sure to take advantage of all the beautiful trails, wildlife and activities the park has to offer.
Our small local towns are Maynooth and Whitney, they offer art shops, bakeries, LCBO, pharmacy and groceries. Bancroft is approximately 45 minutes away but has most anything you need.
