About this property

Bright, Beautiful Year Round Cottage on Paudash Lake

Our family has recently purchased and renovated this cottage on Paudash Lake. Paudash is a beautiful lake located just south of Bancroft Ontario bordering the Kawarthas and Haliburton regions of Ontario's cottage country. The cottage is easy to get to from HWY 28 and is close to Bancroft or Apsley if you need groceries or an LCBO.

The cottage is great in all seasons. In the winter months, we are very close to some of the best snowmobile trails, hiking, and cross country skiing trails at Silent Lake Provincial Park. In the summer there is a marina on the lake if you are interested in renting a boat or water toys. We have a canoe, a paddleboard and 2 kayaks on the property for your use.

Our cottage has a new kitchen and each room has been newly decorated. The cottage is 2 stories high with cathedral ceilings in the living room and a screened outdoor sitting room so you can enjoy the amazing view of the lake. We are on a well and the water is very safe to drink and cook with. Sun exposure is east and we have the most beautiful sunrise views. Directly behind our cottage is a large park for throwing a ball or walking through the trails.

The main cottage has 3 bedrooms and sleeps 8 comfortably. All mattresses in the cottage are brand new and very comfortable for sleeping. All bedding is provided and of the finest quality.

Here is a breakdown of beds in the cottage:
Bedroom 1 (2nd floor)- 1 California king bed
Bedroom 2 (2nd floor) - 2 single beds + a bunk bed
Bedroom 3 (main floor)- 1 queen bed

Check-in is 4pm and check-out is 11am.

Paudash Lake is a wonderful place for a family vacation. We are very respectful of the lake, the environment and our neighbours. We are only looking for renters who will do the same. Please contact me (Kim) with any questions.

Wonderful Spot!!
We absolutely enjoyed our time here with our family. The cottage was just as shown with amazing views of the lake. We were 6 adults; me, my husband, kids, spouses and a toddler who loved playing in the bunky. The beds were very comfy including in the bunky where my daughter and partner stayed. The kitchen had everything we needed and the long kitchen Island was a great added space! We all spent a lot of time down at the huge dock which had loads of seating. The wonderful lake swimming was the icing on the cake. Kim was great at responding to any questions.

Great stay at Paudash Lake
Thoroughly enjoyed our time at Lake Paudash. The cottage was very well equipped, comfortable and nicely decorated. Kitchen was a good size and had everything we needed. Lot's of choice for sleeping with 3 bedrooms, bunky and bunk beds in open area. All the beds were very comfortable. Kim was great to deal with always replying promptly with any information we needed. Location on the lake was great - lot's of sun in on the dock in the morning and some shade in the afternoon. Paudash is a very pretty, quiet lake, great for swimming.

About the host

Hosted by Kim Harland

Host profile image
Our family is originally from the east coast of Canada, we moved to Ontario 25 years ago and have been trying to find a place that reminds us of the maritimes.

Why they chose this property

We plan to retire to this beautiful lake but for now our children play too many sports for us to get up every weekend.

What makes this property unique

The water is clean and clear with no weeds, which makes for great swimming. You can jump right off the dock.
We have a canoe, 2 kayaks and a paddle board you are welcome to use on the lake to go exploring. There is cliff jumping and sandy beaches to explore on the lake.
