Our cottage offers an 'Old Muskoka' authentic cottage getaway experience with plenty of creature comforts, yet the feeling of being in a cabin in the woods perched above the sparkling clear waters of the Moon River. The property offers two convenient parking spaces steeped in the landscape, with extra space for daytime visitors. The dual-access wooden steps down the cottage are just the start of your picture-perfect week away. The backside of the cottage offers shaded decking for BBQing, outdoor dining and lounging. Inside the cottage, you'll find two bedrooms with single bunk beds and a queen bed (quality mattresses). The beds are set up with comfortable quilts and down-filled pillows while you supply linens. The kitchen/ living room offers everything you need for cooking and relaxing (with a futon for extra sleeping). The T.V. is accompanied by Apple T.V./Netflix, and we also have high-speed internet to keep you connected. The feature room is the 'Muskoka Room' offering a dining table for 4, a pullout sofa, pined lined walls, a vaulted ceiling and stunning views of the bay.
The river/lake is a close jaunt from the cottage, offering a combination of steps and a natural pathway to get you there. The waterfront provides some level land for sitting/playing, a firepit and a 'New' 16' by 20' dock for relaxing, getting into your boat or jumping into the water. Best of all, we have a sand beach entry for the kids or those who like to wade in slowly. We offer a range of life jacket sizes, a paddleboat and a canoe.
The river/lake offers excellent swimming, fishing, boating, and many bays and inlets to explore. You can even boat into the town docks and grab ice cream/treats in Bala. If you need amenities (groceries, dining, bank), you're just a 6-7 minute drive from Bala and the famous 'Don's Bakery' and 'Kee to Bala' concert venue.
Looking forward to hearing from you! Your hosts, Mitch and Dianna.
P.S. The rental rates includes professional cleaning before and after stays, Thanks!

| We had a wonderful stay at this charming lakeside cottage. It's very cozy and well-equipped for a family of four. The lake's clear, weed-free water and shallow entry was great for swimming. We had a fantastic time fishing, catching plenty of smallmouth bass. The canoe, kayak, and pedal boat were perfect for exploring the area. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back.

| Nice Muskoka Cottage with great views of the bay. The shallow, sandy beach entry and provided sand toys, were a hit with my 8yr old son. The paddleboat was also a favourite. The dock is very spacious and relaxing. The cottage provided everything we needed, plus tv, movies and internet for rainy days.
We recommend it to anyone wanting fun and relaxation set in a beautiful location. Hope to come back.
Thanks again, Mitch

| Great Cottage in beautiful Bala Muskoka with clean/clear calm waters. Nice shallow sandy entrance to the lake. The cottage has every amenity you need. Large sunny dock with comfortable Muskoka chairs. Good fishing, the kids were reeling them in all week. The area offers many attractions, thanks for the recommendations Mitch we enjoyed many of them.

| Best place for a family of 4 to get cozy and enjoy the gorgeous water of moon river. We have rented the cottage from Mitch and Diana for 2 years and it's becoming a family tradition! I love waking up and immediately diving in the water off the deep dock, everyday. :) This year we rented a seadoo and explored all the Moon has to offer. Truly recommend.

| Great cottage getaway! I have booked this cottage 3 times now - the location is great, the cottage is perfect and the owners are wonderful. I've booked this for a kids getaway as well as a girls weekend. The dock and lily pad are perfect for the kids to play on while the adults enjoy the all day sun. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone!
