Waterfront

Welcome to The Sands, an idyllic retreat nestled on the breathtaking shores of Sand Lake. Step into the charm of our Cape Cod style lake house, boasting five cozy bedrooms and three baths, including two 3-piece bathrooms and a luxurious 4-piece ensuite. Set on a serene level lot adorned with mature trees and ample open space for lawn games, this property offers the perfect haven for every generation of your family.

Prepare to be captivated by the seamless fusion of indoor and outdoor living. Our open concept kitchen and living room provide a warm and inviting space to gather, while the walk-out access leads you to a full-length deck offering spectacular panoramic views of the tranquil lake. As you step outside, you'll discover a hidden gem?the vast sand bar right in front of the cottage, inviting you to bask in the sun and create lasting memories.

Sand Lake is a true haven for water enthusiasts. Dive into its crystal-clear depths, which reach 75 feet, and explore the interconnected Shawenegog Lake, offering you two magnificent bodies of water to discover. Cast your line and reel in bass, walleye, and pike, or embark on a leisurely paddle, boat ride, or refreshing swim. For added adventure, venture to the public beach located on the far side of Sand Lake or take a short 30-minute drive to Bon Echo Provincial Park, where even more excitement awaits.

At The Sands, each season brings its own enchantment. During the summer, revel in the joys of swimming, paddling, boating, and fishing. As twilight descends, gather around a crackling bonfire (please check for local restrictions) and marvel at the dazzling night sky! The area skies are so spectacular and an exceptional treat that it is home of the North Frontenac Dark Sky Observatory, just 15 minutes away.

Our stay was great! We were 3 couples (my parents, my sister and her partner and then myself and my partner) and 2 dogs.
Tons of pros: lots of space for us with rooms to spare, kitchen was very clean and had all the items you might need to cook with (utensils and small appliances etc), we loved the extra fridge in the laundry room and the space in the pantry, the water was great for swimming and the dock was awesome to relax on. The back deck off the cottage was so nice for morning coffee. The owner was very kind and responsive.
Cons: The horse flies and deer flies were not great, obviously not in the owners control. The upstairs (bedrooms) was warm in comparison to the main floor but fans were supplied and we had those going the whole time.
Overall we loved our stay, and would absolutely stay here again!

Thank you so much Sarah for taking the time to leave your review - I truly appreciate you staying with us and it makes me so happy to hear that you and your group enjoyed your time at the cottage!!!
I also appreciate you mentioning the cons and we will work to resolve these issues for the future. Thank you again

Our group (3 families with kids) had a great time at the Sands!

The cottage itself was very clean and spacious. Rooms were comfortable, although would get warm overnight after the hottest days (even with AC running). But the provided fans did help with that! The kitchen had most everything we needed for cooking, and came with a few basic spices. Bonus was the extra fridge/freezer in the laundry room!

The backyard was beautiful and level, which was great for our kids to play outside. Even better for them was the shallow sandy entry to the lake. They could play and we could watch without worrying about how deep the water was.

We visited the public beach a few times as well, and enjoyed it every time! Fishing wasn't great off the dock, but we went further out into the water a few times and managed to get some catches!

Overall, we had a lovely stay!

Thank you for the feedback and for staying with us!

Everything about our stay at The Sands was amazing. Communication with Diana was always prompt and friendly, the cottage itself is stunning and housed my family perfectly. We had a wonderful stay, loved being right on the water. The cottage was clean, spacious, and well-equipped. I was especially touched to find Diana had gone out of her way to leave balloons for my son's 3rd birthday when we arrived. Would highly recommend this rental!

Thank you so much Melody for staying with us! It was a pleasure to host you and your family to celebrate your son's birthday together!! I truly appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review! I hope that you will come and stay with us again sometime! Thank you again, Diana

Our large family had a wonderful time at The Sands cottage! The cottage was inviting spacious and clean! The property was well maintained with lots of room for outdoor games such as corn hole and ring toss!! The waterfront and beach 5 mins away makes this location a win, win for young children and parents! We hope to return to Sands Cottage next summer!

Thank you so much for staying with us Sara and for taking the time to write a review! It is very much appreciated! We are very excited to have you and your group stay with us again next year!! Thank you again!

We loved our stay at The Sands. The cottage is beautiful, clean, and relaxing with all the needed amenities needed. Diana was an incredible host and available to answer all our questions. The lake is very quiet and we're very happy to have had the opportunity to use the kayaks that were available on the property.
