About this property

Muskoka Cottage Living

Look no further. This rustic generational cottage on beautiful Mary Lake can sleep up to 6 people comfortably, and allows you to enjoy all the beauty of Muskoka from a very desirable and convenient location between Huntsville and Port Sydney. If you are looking for a relaxing week in Muskoka, watching the deer or wild turkey walk by while you are drinking your morning coffee … look no further!

Some details about our cottage –
Bedrooms - There are three bedrooms. The master bedroom is equipped with a brand new king size bed, which has direct access onto the deck. The second bedroom has two single beds. The third bedroom has a unique flare – it is a separate access guest suite that has a queen size bed and a set of bunk beds which looks out directly onto the firepit. This suite is great if there are multiple families sharing the rental, which gives you some added privacy throughout your stay. Please ensure to supply your own linens and towels.

Living / Bathroom - There is one full bathroom, as well as full laundry available. The bathroom is brand new, equipped with top of the line fixtures so you don't miss any of the comforts of home. There is a woodstove, along with Laz-Z-Boy furniture for your comfort. WiFi and Bell Satellite are available. A Napoleon barbecue is on site for your use as well as a Kuraig Coffee maker that takes pods or will make a pot of coffee from grounds.

Water Access – the water access directly across from this cottage with a perfect hard sandy bottom for swimming, which is a shared access. There is no dock available for mooring a boat, but day use is available in Port Sydney. Port Sydney beach is also very close by and has a beautiful beach, docks and launch for day use of boats. Alternatively, Arrowhead Provincial Park is also close by with great amenities for day use.

Firepit – there is an area for having those great campfire memories. On site, there are 6 brand new adirondack chairs for your use. We advise all renters to bring their own firewood, and enjoy the fire responsibly. Should you not want to cook over the open fire, there is a BBQ on site for your use.

The location of the cottage couldn't be better. It is 5 minutes off Hwy 11, close to Huntsville, Port Sydney and Bracebridge. Take a drive into Port Sydney and enjoy their public beach, or take a ride down the rock falls! Head into Huntsville for dinner out, and come back to the cottage for s'mores!

If I haven't answered all your questions, please feel free to message me. We want all of our cottagers to have the best experience, so answering all your questions beforehand is very important to us.

The cutest little cottage
My family and I enjoyed a lovely weekend here. The kids loved playing outside, exploring and the water access was just across the street. Public beach within a short drive and about 30 minutes from Santa's Village. We loved it here and will definitely plan on coming back 😊

Beautiful area , could be cleaner, water yellow
The area is beautiful & cottage as described. Could be cleaner - some hair, dusty bathroom counter, popcorn on floor. Biggest concern was the yellow water- like really yellow. Emailed homeowner to ask if it was safe to even cook with or bathe in, with no response . We had to go out and buy bottled water for cooking and drinking. Keurig didn’t work , which meant the coffee pot didn’t either. Also the baseboard heaters didn’t heat well- make sure you take wood for wood stove if it’s cold out. We enjoyed our time, but likely wouldn’t choose this one again unless water issue was fixed .
