The house was well stocked, and the river was beautiful and perfect for swimming!

We really enjoyed being in the river and its close proximity to the lake. The house provided everything we needed. The kids had a blast especially!

About the host

Hosted by Jan

Family owned cottage near our childhood home. We looked after this cottage on behalf of other owners for many years and later bought it.

Why they chose this property

This area is close to amenities, and well serviced, yet has a truly removed-from-it-all feel. Lots of great boating right at the dock. Sparrow Lake is only five minutes down stream. Georgian Bay, Lake Couchiching, and all the other great places on the Trent-Severn are close by. The Torrance Barrens is a 20-minute drive. The private Muskoka Wildlife Park is 10-minutes away. The cottage is about 100 years old and was originally on of several built along the river by a group of friends who all worked at Simpsons-Sears in downtown Toronto.

What makes this property unique

It's so wonderful to wake up in the morning and sit out on the porch and enjoy breakfast while looking over the river and the birds and wildlife. Later in the day we have a choice to go biking, hiking, or boating right from the cottage.
