Spectacular Log Home on the Falls

Welcome to our Lake Rosseau 1.2-acre waterfront log retreat on 320 feet of west-facing frontage located next to a stunning waterfall with no public access. We are located a 1 km walk to Windermere Golf and Country Club and the town of Windermere. We are situated in a private bay on Lake Rosseau in Muskoka, just 15 minutes to Port Carling 30 minutes to Rosseau, Bracebridge and Huntsville and only a 2 and1/2 hour drive from Toronto.
Secluded, 7 bedroom, 5 bathroom retreat, fully equipped. Cathedral ceilings, wood-burning fireplace, wrap-around decks, beautiful kitchen, brand new log guest house, boat house, 3 car garage with EV charger, canoe, paddle boat, fishing boat with 9.9 Yamaha motor and all the amenities. We have a stunning south view from the dock looking down to the main part of Lake Rosseau and located right on a waterfall. There is also a 6 person barrel sauna overlooking the lake.

Our secluded cottage is extremely private. We are the last cottage on the private road surrounded by forest and a stunning 40 foot waterfall. The cottage is west facing with 2 large docks, boat house, diving board and swim raft. There is a 2 bedroom 1 bathroom guest house which sleeps 6 and a 3 car garage. If privacy is what you want then this is the cottage for you. This cottage has wonderful swimming and gorgeous sunsets.
While summer in Muskoka is something undescribeable, the Great North can always be enjoyed for 4 seasons along with this log home. Try your hand at cross country skiing or borrow the snowshoes available at the property for a hike through the trees! The neighboring areas in Muskoka can provide a fun day or evening trip! Rosseau creates Ice Caves and snowy outdoor geodomes for dining at the J.W. Marriot Resort on the water. Gravenhurst is the starting point for the "Lake Muskoka Magic" tour, hop on a snowmobile and view the lake from the trails or for the more adventurous of the group try your hand at the "Round Algonquin Park' tours. Another must do that will have the kids excited for more is taking the day to tour Bala, with their Cranberry Ice Trail at Muskoka Lakes Winery and Farm. After skating head over to Cottage Cravings, known for having over 30 different hot chocolate flavours! And do not forget the unbelievable ice fishing in the district!

In the spring, enjoy events like the Muskoka Maple Trail- showcasing local maple syrup farms/families and a time when restaurants in the district go the extra mile to create dishes with Ontario's liquid gold! An amazing year round experience can be found at the Muskoka Beer Spa located between Torrence and Bala, hot pools, saunas and more!

While summers are what the area can be known for, the other seasons truly have amazing things to offer (with way less crowds)! Getting out of the city has never been easier!

Beautiful cottage by the falls
We had an amazing week at Pat and Morley’s place on lake Rosseau. The place was lovely and setting was perfect. Nice and private and a close walk to local amenities in Windermere. We’d definitely go back!
