A Wee Bit o Heaven - Cozy Waterfront Kawartha Cottage w/ WiFi, Canoe, Kayaks

This Kawartha Lakes cottage rental is available for weekly (Saturday to Saturday) and weekend (Friday to Sunday) bookings in low season, but is not available for mid-week bookings.

Nestled right next to the Queen Elizabeth Wildlands Provincial Park, this location is perfect if for canoeing and kayaking, and to feel that 'away from it all' vibe. It's a nature lovers paradise so if you want to catch sight of a beaver, otter, blue heron, loon, to name a few, make sure you have a camera handy. And, then there's the fishing!! Some of the best fishing in Head Lake is just off the shoreline.

This delightful cottage has lovely lawns and perennial gardens and faces south west. The deck overlooks the lake and has low seating for enjoying the sunsets and the view across the water.

Inside you'll find a neat kitchen, dining and living area with a wide Muskoka room across the waterside of the cottage. Eat in or out and you'll enjoy wonderful lake views. Three bedrooms are off a hallway with a full bathroom..

For a traditional cottage rental this has all the bells and whistles. A dishwasher, Wi-Fi and satellite TV will give you all the comforts of home, yet you are right on the lake.

The waterfront has a shallow entry (it was once a boat launch) however there are some weeds in the bay. This is great for fishing but less so for a swim, so you can take a kayak over to the swim rafts (shared with the owner's property next door) and have fun jumping and diving. Of course, you may want to take the boats out to explore the beautiful byways of the Head River and the wilderness of the Provincial Park - it's beautiful.

At less than 2 hours from the city, and close to local towns, golf courses and hiking and biking trails, we think this will be a popular cottage. Book now so you don't miss your chance.
