Making your way down to the first deck landing, you'll find the sweetest sunroom. This picture-perfect space not only has screened in seating from the pesky mosquitos, there's a TV, heater and mini fridge inside! It is the perfect hideaway with a good book or catching up with friends and would make the most beautiful spot for a little girl's tea party or ladies wine night! The enclosed sunroom is perched above the lake with panoramic views the bay and a great spot for bird watching.
The cottage's hillside garden is a delightful treat, offering a pollinator's oasis where you can relax and reconnect with nature while stepping down to the shoreline on the natural stone steps. Take in the vibrant flowers and lush greenery while you let the sounds of nature melt away the stresses of everyday life. Children will love running and playing on the spacious lawn along the shore, while parents can unwind with a refreshing drink in the Muskoka chairs and around the lakeside firepit.
Lakeside Perch has a large dock, extending out into the calm waters of Fraser Lake. Spend your days swimming, fishing, or simply basking in the sun's warmth, while the gentle waves lull you into a state of pure relaxation. The dock also serves as a starting point for water-based adventures, bring along your favourite watercraft and explore the lake by boat, canoe or kayak, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
In addition to the cottage's remarkable features, the surrounding area offers a plethora of activities to keep the whole family entertained. Embark on scenic hikes, go biking, or take a leisurely stroll through quaint towns nearby. Engage in water sports, explore local attractions, or simply savor the tranquility and beauty of nature.
