NOW BOOKING FALL AND WINTER ! NEXT SUMMER REQUESTS ARE COMING IN FAST!

This lakeside cottage is located on the magnificent Lake Talon, the northern gateway to both Algonquin Park and the Mattawa Provincial Park. It is completely surrounded by protected forests, with big water views across the lake of Mattawa Provincial Park itself. Tucked onto a magnificent piece of the Canadian Shield, the cottage harkens back to the days when the Voyageurs would traverse across this lake on their epic journeys.

The cottage has two docks. One is quite large, more of a pier, and sits majestically above the water offering expansive views of the lake, including captivating sunrises and mind-blowing sunsets. The other is a large private dock that offers deep water swimming and a space for you to moor your boat (less that 17 feet). There is a new ladder at the end of the dock.Please note that the owner's watercraft will also be moored on one side of the dock. There are rock steps down to shallow water swimming at the base of the dock, the bottom is hard-packed sand. very suitable for children. Boats can be rented from the Lake Talon Marina, a mere 5 minute boat ride from us.

The cottage was built from logs cut from the lake, and the fireplace was crafted from stones dredged from Lake Talon itself. There is a lakeside firepit and sitting area as well as another breakfast deck with table and chairs, with a view overlooking the lake and surrounding forest.A screened in sunroom is also offered with a ceiling dotted with skylights that will truly bring in the outside, while keeping you safe from the elements.
