Pine Cottage - Lake of Bays

The entire cottage is updated, with wide-plank pine floors, and tongue and groove paneling throughout. It has a total living space of 1500 sq ft. The bathrooms are trimmed in bead board, with new hardware and fittings. The interior is a modern take on the traditional Muskoka family cottage.

Perhaps the best feature of Pine Cottage is its unusual proximity to the waterfront. You are never more than just a few steps from the lake, and a shoreline that varies from large granite boulders to sandy beach. The entry is firm sand giving way to a softer lake bed, with some visible rocks. The water is shallow, and therefore unusually warm for a Muskoka lake. You can walk in from the shore, or step off the dock to swim, Great fun for the entire family.

The large deck area at the end of the dock is the perfect place to watch the sun set over the sheltered bay, and the cottage and shoreline face south for maximum sunshine during the day.

Water toys include a 16 foot Langford canoe, double open-top kayak, Pelican paddle boat, 10 & 12 ft single kayaks.

For day trips and shopping, the village of Baysville is 8 kilometers away. Baysville offers a charming cafe called Nellies, which doubles as an antique shop. There are two general stores, a bakery and an LCBO outlet, plus pathways along the dam across the Muskoka River.

The town of Huntsville is 15 kilometers away, and has every amenity you could want, from a multiplex theater, to the bustling main street full of shops and restaurants. It's a 12 minute drive. There are numerous golf courses, hiking and snowmobile trails very nearby.

Lake Menominee is a medium sized lake with no public access, so boat traffic is minimal, and the views are uninterrupted. It's also cleaner and quieter than many of the larger, more highly- populated lakes. Pine Cottage is situated in a quiet bay at the northern end of the lake, facing south by southwest.

Pine Cottage is designed to provide the idyllic Muskoka experience, combining the natural beauty of a quiet lakefront retreat with just the right blend of home comforts and luxury touches, and of course that one-of-a-kind Muskoka feeling. We love spending time here, and we know you will too.
