Dock on the Bay
We have a dock which is suitable to sit, fish, or dock a boat. It's a fixed non-floating type so you need not worry about bobbing about. It has a step down for easier kayak launch or to dangle your feet deeper in water. The water depth can vary quite a bit over the season but generally you can wade to the end of the dock before needing to swim (depending on your height of course!) the lake bottom is sandy until about 2 meters past the end of the dock where it gets weedy. If you are interested in fishing, the bay is a bit of a hotspot with muskie, pike and bass. We suggest live bait such as worms and minnows, but if you're looking for the bigger fish, minnows are the way to go. The available watercraft include two single kayaks, a dual kayak and a paddleboard. A paddleboat is also available.
Deck and BBQ
The recently added deck wraps around the cottage from the front door to the lake front door. It's a generous width which can accommodate a large group and has a large umbrella complete with mosquito netting for those particularly sensitive to the wee beasties. There is a propane barbecue on the deck to supplement cooking options as well. In addition to the red and green Muskoka chairs we also have a number of "Gravity Chairs" which recline fully with some having sun shades built in. We fully endorse staying out on clear, cool nights without a moon and stargazing; it gets dark enough to make out the Milky Way.
Parking & Fire Pit
there is room for four (4) vehicles on the property, 2 on each side of the cottage. Currently there is a level 2 car charger at the side door which is available for your use for a $10/day surcharge. If you need extra parking you may park in front of the cottage between the cottage and the gravel road. Please avoid driving over the edge of the septic holding tank. If you wish to have a camp fire, we ask that you keep it contained in the metal container provided for that purpose in the area defined by the patio stones.
