THE FIRST 3 WEEKS OF SEPTEMBER ARE STILL OPEN. The fall really is the nicest time of year up at the lake. Unfortunately we do not entertain weekend only rentals. Above all else, this cottage has the WOW factor that will blow you away! Treasure Point is a spectacular custom-built log home set on beautiful Chandos Lake with 385' of lake frontage, tall trees, and outstanding views - including sunset views from the covered porch. This executive log home is on a double lot with 1½ acres of seclusion and privacy.

The cottage was a childhood dream that led to an architect's inspired design with 26' high vaulted and beamed ceilings, hickory floors, cherry cabinets, beautiful stonework and custom designed fixtures like the real wagon wheel chandelier in the dining room.
Beautifully furnished and finished with over 2,000 sq. ft. on the main floor and 4,500 sq. ft. total under roof, this home can be your personal retreat away from the city. The living areas and three bedrooms are on the main level with a fourth spectacular bedroom in the open loft area overlooking the living room and lake, while showcasing the hand carved log structures.
Walking into the cottage for the first time is an awe inspiring experience for everyone. The massive size of the logs, posts and beams are not immediately apparent in photos, but are brought to life when you stand next to them and look up. Views of the water are seen through the huge lakefront picture windows (16' wide by 20' tall) in the living room. The centerpiece of the living room is the 14' tall stone fireplace, complete with accent lighting for dramatic evening viewing.
The kitchen and dining rooms are located off the living room and include expansive cherry cabinets, a 6-burner gas/convection antique replica stove, an island and a huge dining table 9 ½' long. All kitchen appliances, pots, pans, utensils and miscellaneous tools are new and ready to use.
A lovely 400 sq. ft. covered porch off the kitchen overlooks the lake as well as our secluded private point. A second deck, larger than the first overlooks the lake and dock. A third smaller covered porch greets visitors at the main entrance with a stone pathway to the driveway.
There is also an unfinished basement area with a walk-out to the lake. The satellite TV and DVD player are in the basement, along with comfortable sofas and a coffee table.
Our dock is ready to swim from or lounge on. The U-shaped dock is 28' x 30' with a large slip for your boat. There is an angled ladder that makes exiting easy for everyone. The water is approximately 6' deep off the end of the dock and has a soft sandy bottom. We include a canoe and kayak for your exploring (you will need to furnish your own PFDs for safety reasons).
Live in 'rustic luxury' with all of the modern amenities. Our family also has a 50 acre animal sanctuary behind the cottage with resident deer and the occasional moose. We are approximately 10 minutes to Apsley.
385' of frontage on a point of land with sunrise to sunset views. Natural shoreline accessed from cottage by approx. 50 steps. Very scenic point of land - with quiet seating area down by the water to enjoy a morning coffee. Limited shallow entry beside dock at shore over stepping stones, with clean, deep water swimming from large U-shaped slip dock. Chandos - a spring fed lake - provides good trout, pike and muskie fishing - some 'lunkers' caught from this cottage dock...
Waterfront: Complete privacy surrounds this cottage on a large point of land. You have views up and down the lake, with numerous settings nestled around the shoreline for reading or sharing a glass of wine.
Heating: Furnace and two fireplaces.
Children allowed: Yes, of course. We have bunk beds for kids as well as small chairs and a Fisher Price picnic table.
Smoking: No, unfortunately due to two smoking related fires (that were caught immediately) our insurance agents, neighbors and family cannot permit smoking on the property.
Pets allowed: No, due to owner allergies, we cannot have pets in the cottage.
High speed wireless internet is available at additional charge. Upon activation, you will be charged at Bell Mobility rates, without markup.
On the main level are two bedrooms with queen beds (master has electric fireplace), plus a third bedroom with a set of twin bunk beds. Four piece bathroom (tub/shower, toilet and sink, heated towel rack) on this level. In the loft, overlooking the living area is a queen bed.
Kitchen has fridge/freezer, stove (gas)/oven, microwave, dishwasher. Laundry. Phone, high speed internet access, satellite tv., DVD. Covered porch, deck, dock, patio furniture, gas bbq. A kayak and canoe are available for your use (renters need to furnish their own PFDs for safety reasons).

We have one full bathroom with tub and shower. We often hear initial concerns from families about sharing only one bathroom; however the reason it works so well is that unlike in the city, where everyone gets up early to go to work or school and heads immediately to the bathroom, at the cottage you'll be on 'leisure time' and your group will rise and use the bathroom at various times. We've had multi-day family reunions at the cottage with nearly 30 people and the bathroom was never an issue! + VIEW MORE - COLLAPSE LOCATIONLOCATION| Province: Ontario | | Region: Kawarthas | | City: Apsley | | | Distance from ski resort: | - |

Owner response: Hi Deb & Gerry, We're glad you had a great time on Chandos at our cottage. We just got back last night from closing it up and it was hard to leave for another season... Enjoy your retirement, and we hope your relaxing week at Treasure Point may have contributed to your decision to retire! Sincerely, Tim & Nancy | |

| Our two families had a wonderful and relaxing time at Treasure Point! The cottage is very beautiful but the lake is the crown jewel. Every attention to detail was provided and we hope to return next summer!

| An absolute gem of a cottage on one of the nicest lakes of the Kawarthas. We rented the cottage for a week in August 2016. This huge log cabin is incredible - the pictures do not do justice to the meticulously decorated and equipped cottage, its size and its prime location. We very much enjoyed spending lazy days soaking the late summer sun and swimming in the lake. It was a pleasure to interact with Tim who is passionate about his cottage and who ensured we had an enjoyable week. Our family thank him for sharing this cottage with us and we hope we can enjoy Treasure Point again in the future.

| We stayed there with 3 generations of my family in this amazing place. The timber structure was absolutely stunning and an incredible experience to have had for a week. Every room in the house was spacious, both indoor and outdoor spaces were accommodating for our large group. From ages 1 to 72, there was something to do for everyone from fishing and swimming to puzzles and card games. We engaged in some crazy nights of card playing on the large porch table one night and kitchen table another night and the kids were screaming for more since we had so much fun. The kitchen was well planned, lots of room for everyone and very well stocked. We would love to go back the next chance we get. You couldn't ask for anything more than this little piece of paradise in cottage country. Thank you Tim and Nancy!

Owner response: Thanks for the kind words Georgia. One of our favorite parts of the rental experience is when we get to phone each family after they arrive and hear their enthusiasm as they explore the cottage and property. We're glad you enjoyed your vacation. Come back anytime. Tim & Nancy | |
