Whispering Pines Cottage is the most popular cottage rental on Cottages In Canada in the Simcoe / Orillia area for the past 3 years and is often booked more than six months in advance, with a lengthy waiting list every summer. 80% of guests are repeat famillies who return to the cottage year after year.
Book early to avoid disappointment!
The entire cottage was renovated from top to bottom in 2018!
Between September and June, the cottage often hosts long-term tenants including famillies who need temporary accommodations, employees with extended working projects and contractors. Flexible dates available.
The cottage is located on beautiful Bass Lake with shallow water and sandy bottom. BEST shores of the lake facing due south with incredible sun exposure all day. Lake is warm by the May long weekend and straight through until Thanksgiving.
Sleeps a maximum of 8 people including adults and children. SORRY, NO PETS ALLOWED. NO EXCEPTIONS! Minimum age requirement of 25 years for every adult guest staying at the cottage.
Whispering Pines Cottage is located only 1 hour north of Canada's Wonderland / GTA and just minutes from the town of Orillia, Casino Rama, Horseshoe Valley Golf & Ski, and Mt. St. Louis Moonstone. It is perfectly situated on a beautiful and small lake with springfed water, approximately 2 miles by 3 miles with a sandy bottom. The water is warm and shallow and ideal for swimming, fishing, canoeing and waterskiing.
The idyllic setting is its most unique feature. It breathes peace and tranquility amongst beautiful tall trees. Guests feel like they are in cottage country each time they step out the door onto a very large wrap around deck facing the lake. The deck overlooks a flat grass lot, with panoramic views of the lake, sunrise and incredible sunsets directly in front of their eyes.
The whole family can gather at the water's edge with a lengthy dock perfectly situated for sunbathing and swimming through a shallow entry for all ages to enjoy a splash in the lake. Water is warm, bottom is sandy and the lake is incredible and calm. We provide all amenities needed for an amazing vacation including canoe, kayaks, lifejackets, volleyball, oversized custom pool table, basketball net, new bedding, towels, all kitchenware, etc.
In winter months, guests will enjoy the most relaxing and well-deserved break from daily life by cross-country skiing along the lake, ice skating, or taking a visit to any of the nearby ski hills. At the end of a day full of activity, enjoy peaceful moments around the large stone fireplace in the center of the living room.
The cottage is spacious and two stories with four bedrooms and two full piece bathrooms. 8 adults can comfortably stay at the cottage. The master bedroom has a queen size bed. The second bedroom has a double size bed. The third bedroom has a twin over full bunk bed, and the fourth bedroom has a single bed.
The inside is very clean and has been completely renovated from top to bottom in spring 2018, newly furnished and tastefully decorated on both levels. The new family room has just been entirely redone with extra large custom designed pool table, big screen 50 inch TV, and surround sound. New custom kitchen with stone countertops was completed in June, 2018.
It is open concept with 15 foot ceilings, hardwood floors throughout, ceiling fans in every room and plenty of seating. The dining room has a large table with an adjacent great room. All areas have large windows and sliding doors with breathtaking views of the lakeside, and walkout access to the deck where guests can barbeque and dine in the fresh air.

| Thank you for your amazing accommodations at your cottage. It definitely lived up to our expectations and went several steps further. The photographs on the site didn't do the home enough justice. What a magnificent home and what a privilege to have stayed in it.
I would recommend this cottage and can't wait to come again!

| Our family just returned from another beautiful week at Whispering Pines Cottage after a 4th summer in a row. Each stay gets better and better! Our kids love the room with the bunk beds, and we love the largest room downstairs with comfortable big bed. Everyone enjoyed the big screen TV, pool table, and basketball net. The new renovations in the kitchen and bathroom are very high end and my wife was ecstatic to cook with all the necessities nicely stocked, while I mastered the new large BBQ outside. Our favourite features are: its very spacious with a great layout and high ceilings and panoramic views of the lake from inside and from the deck; great shallow entry and easy access to the warm lake with sandy bottom; many activities to choose from: canoe, kayaks, floating tubes, lots of paddles and lifejackets, volleyball, bikes, etc.. So convenient and close to town. Mariposa Market and Country Produce are the favourites! Our day guests loved visiting. Owners Stacie and Family are absolutely fantastic to deal with from beginning to end. Thank you again for having us!

| So I will start with the positive things about the cottage. It was clean and the front window gave us spectacular views of Bass Lake. The renovated kitchen and bathrooms were very nice. There was ample Toilet paper, dishwashing soap, and clothes washing soap. The cottage owner on the whole was quick to respond.
There are endless rules that I felt would apply to teenagers who may not have any idea how to behave, not applicable to a grandmother and her family. Many of the rules were followed by the threat of eviction. This made us very uncomfortable.
The cottage houses 8 people and we only had 2 Wine Glasses, 7 forks and we questioned if the sheets had been changed in the basement as they had an odour to them
My daughter-in-law is very pregnant and we had to give her the master bedroom as the bunk beds were very uncomfortable, in fact the only room that was comfortable was the one with the day bed
Some of the bedroom lamps did not work The Canoe was taking on water the kids felt there was a problem with the canoe.
The washroom in the basement needs a hand towel, when one has a shower there is no where to hang a towel
Suggestion for directions add postal Code as two guests ended up in Orillia as the street Name is in orillia as well.
I felt I had to write this so that they can be rectified, as the cottage has many beautiful enhancements but paying attention to the detail and guest experience would have made our stay so much better.

| The Bass Lake cottage is perfection! The cottage itself was immaculate and spacious, with modern but cosy open-concept living, a well-appointed kitchen, and everything we needed to be comfortable and nurtured. Even the couches and beds are comfortable! The view is incredible, with the wall of windows and the deck overlooking the mature trees and lake beyond. With the city and amenities so near, it was the ideal place to get away and just chill out. We'll definitely be back!

| I have stayed at Whispering Pines Cottage three times during all seasons, the most recent was in March 2019. Our experience there has been so positive that we keep coming back!! Winter was my favorite it is quiet, calm and relaxing. I especially love the panoramic view of the lake from all rooms through the giant windows and cathedral ceilings. The trees and setting are beautiful and the outside is well maintained. The amenities in the cottage are great upscale renovations, custom finished kitchen and bathroom, whole place is clean and nicely decorated. The cottage is spacious with plenty of room for all guests on both levels. We enjoyed the satellite TV, BBQ, pool table, basketball net and lots of board games to choose from. Perfect vacation for couples or families.
