Lakehouse Hideaway, Private Rustic Luxury, 4-bed 2-bath, 4-season, pet-friendly, hot tub, waterfront

Please note that there is NO swimming at our waterfront. It is very mucky. In the summer, we do have an above-ground swimming pool (4' x 18") and a swim raft to swim from which is a short paddle off from our dock. We have a good-sized dock which is perfect for sun-tanning, lounging, watching the sunset or dangling your toes. You can even fish from it (you will need to obtain a fishing license). We also have a creek which is a delight to explore!

Wake up to the sound of song birds, have your breakfast on the deck watching the mist drift over the lake, hike the trails, kayak around the lake, canoe out and jump off the swim platform, relax in the hot tub, watch the kids splash around in the above-ground pool, throw something delicious on the BBQ, and come together around the fire at night while you hear the owls calling to each other. On rainy days, grab some cards, a board game, some puzzles or curl up with a good book or a movie. Send the kids to the Shenanigan Shack for a sleep out! What an adventure they'll have!

Onsite activities will keep you busy year round. In the summer months, enjoy swimming from our swim dock, kayaking (we have three single-person kayaks), canoeing (seats two to three), pedal-boating (seats two adults plus one or two small children), hiking or bike riding on our trails (bring your own bikes). Our newest addition is an 18'x4' above-ground pool perfect for the kiddos (of all ages!) to take a dip and cool off. Anyone in the family will enjoy spending some time in the Shenanigan Shack (there is a sleep loft for napping or reading), and also makes a great hang-out for the teenagers! During the Fall, take a hike and witness the breathtaking beauty of the changing colours. In the winter months, pull out your snowshoes and cross-country skis and explore the more than 2 km of trails on the property, take a run down one of the tobogganing hills, or play some shinny hockey on the rink once the lake has frozen over. Year round luxury is right on your doorstep with our hot tub.

The Lakehouse Hideaway is 20 minutes to Mont Ste. Marie and its golf course and ski hill. Horse-back riding, dog-sledding, a variety of restaurants, artisans's workshops and many other activities and points of interest are close at hand.
