Welcome to Birch Point — a newly renovated, four-season waterfront cottage on the shores of Bay Lake, just 7 minutes from Bancroft, Ontario. Whether you're planning a summer week on the water, a fall colours escape, a winter snowmobile trip, or a long weekend away with family and friends, Birch Point is the kind of place that works beautifully in every season. Fully renovated in early 2026, the cottage sleeps up to 9 guests across three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, making it ideal for families, groups of friends, or multi-family getaways. It's private, peaceful, and thoughtfully set up so that guests can arrive and immediately settle in — everything you need is already there. The heart of the cottage is a bright, open-concept living space with vaulted ceilings and large windows looking directly out over the lake. The electric fireplace keeps things cozy on cooler evenings, and the 4K OLED Smart TV with Netflix is there for when you want a quiet night in. Starlink high-speed internet means you can work remotely if you need to, or just stay connected without frustration. All linens are provided, the laundry is in-suite, and the propane furnace keeps the cottage warm and comfortable year-round. The kitchen is fully equipped for real cooking — stainless steel cookware, a dishwasher, and a Keurig stocked with pods and drip coffee to start every morning off right. There's also a great selection of indoor games for the evenings or rainy days. The three bedrooms are set up as follows: two queen bedrooms each with memory foam mattresses, and a third bunk room with a full-over-full bunk bed and a twin trundle, as well as an additional twin over twin bunk. — all with memory foam mattresses as well. Both bathrooms are full, with walk-in showers. Outside, Birch Point really comes into its own. The large private dock sits directly on Bay Lake and is suited for tying up a boat, lounging in the sun, or jumping in for a swim. Kayaks, paddleboards, and lifejackets are all provided and ready to use. The walk down to the lake is perfectly flat, and there's also a fire pit with firewood provided, a propane blackstone griddle, and a patio with outdoor seating and lawn games.
Bay Lake is calm, clean, and beautiful — and in winter, it opens up for snowmobiling and ice fishing right from the property, and located just 2.5 hours from both Toronto and Ottawa. The roads are plowed and the cottage is fully winterized, so Birch Point truly earns its four-season label.
Bancroft is just 7 minutes away and has everything you need: grocery stores, the LCBO, restaurants, cafés, a local brewery, and Kawartha Dairy for ice cream on the way back from a swim. Grail Springs Wellness Spa is only 3 minutes from the cottage — a wonderful add-on for any trip. Eagle's Nest Lookout is a must-do hike with panoramic views of the Highlands, and there are golf courses, ski hills, and dozens of lakes and trails all within easy reach. Bancroft is also known as the Mineral Capital of Canada, with a summer Rockhound Gemboree that's a hit with kids and adults alike.
Birch Point is pet-friendly — we just ask that guests take responsibility for any pet-related damage during their stay. Check-in is at 4:00 PM and check-out is at 11:00 AM. Summer bookings run Saturday to Saturday. Please reach out with any questions — we'd love to have you.

| The cottage was perfect for our family, lots of space with great access to the water for swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking. Our kids also enjoyed the selection of board games.
The hosts provided a easy to follow guidebook and were responsive to texts when we had questions. We look forward to booking again next year!

| Such a beautiful and cozy cottage! It's modern, stylish, full of natural light, and has everything you could possibly need, truly a home away from home with beautiful nature all around.
The cottage is located on an absolutely beautiful, peaceful lake with incredibly clear water, you can see right through it! The views from the dock are magnificent. We loved fishing, and the kids had an amazing time kayaking and paddle boarding. The stand-up pedal board was an absolute hit with everyone!
The weather wasn't always on our side, but it didn't take away from our stay. We enjoyed being outside whenever we could, and when the weather got bad, the cottage was the perfect cozy place to relax and spend time together.
Thank you to our lovely hosts for sharing such a wonderful vacation spot with us. We made some beautiful family memories and would happily come back!

| Our stay was wonderful! The cottage had all we needed: appliances and cookware in the kitchen, linens and towels, a bonfire pit, lifejackets, kayaks, and a paddle boat! Swimming off the end of the dock was great, and the lake was full of fish for fishing! The bedroom layout was perfect for our group of two families - 2 separate bedrooms for the parents and a room with bunkbeds for the 4 kids. The cottage was clean, had good mattresses, and lots of games. The hosts provided prompt responses and made us feel welcome. Would stay again! Thank you E&E!

| Everything was exactly as described, and the hosts made the entire experience effortless with their excellent communication and hospitality. Whether we were enjoying the peaceful mornings by the water or spending our evenings together, every moment was special. This was one of those trips we'll be talking about for a long time, and we can't wait to come back and do it all over again. Highly recommend!
