About this property

Waterfront Cottage on Muldrew Lake, Muskoka

Cottage is toasty warm with furnace and wood burning stove. Many activities in the area: skating on the lake or in town, snowshoeing almost anywhere, cross country skiing on groomed trails nearby, downhill skiing in Huntsville or Barrie. Well ploughed roads. A winter wonderland!

This beautiful vacation getaway captures the essence of Muskoka. It features a beautiful cottage with an amazing view of the lake and easy water access on a private wooded property with 150 feet of water frontage. Perfect for swimming, boating, and relaxing with family!

The cottage provides spectacular panoramic south-west views of the lake. Its an open concept design with high, vaulted, cedar ceilings, pine walls and huge windows overlooking the dock and lake. The fully equipped kitchen is open to the dining area and includes a dishwasher, large fridge, microwave, coffee-maker and drinking-water dispenser. An air-tight woodstove is in the corner of the sitting area and is delightful on cooler evenings.

The beautiful master bedroom overlooks the lake and has a walkout to a private deck. It has a sitting area and an ensuite with soaker tub and shower. The second bedroom on the main level also has a walkout to a private deck and the third bedroom on the main floor has twin beds perfect for the kids. The fourth bedroom has bunk beds and is on the lower level adjacent to a family room with a walkout to the water and a full bathroom complete with laundry.

There is a very large deck overlooking the lake complete with patio set for family meals and a propane BBQ. Off the deck is a large fully screened in Muskoka room with a patio set and table, perfect for family meals or relaxing with friends or a good book.

Another highlight of this property is the variety of indoor and outdoor places people may choose to go, for example, to be with groups of friends, or to enjoy quieter conversations and activities such as playing cards, or to spend time alone quietly working on a puzzle. Deck chairs are provided on the cottage deck and the dock by the water for relaxing or a nap in the sun.

The swimming is fantastic! The lake is deep right from the dock and shallow from the separate flat walk in area. The fishing is also great - you just have to find the secret places...

Note that some of the furniture in the pictures has been replaced.

Another great week on Muldrew lake

Our family of 8 had a great time for our fourth consecutive year. The lake is very nice and close to Gravenhurst. The cottage and amenities are excellent and very clean. We hope to return for a fifth year.

Great weekend getaway

The cottage was beautiful and very clean not to mention Martin answered any questions I had almost immediately after I texted him. The water/ view was amazing and we loved the canoe that came with it. Only issue was the fire pit had no seating and the cottage doesn’t come with sheets or towels other than that 10/10 would recommend!

Amazing spot, beautiful stay

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful cottage! It was clean, there was so much space, and the fact that the water was relatively deep off the dock made for some awesome swimming! The sunset views from the dock were stunning, and the gated off deck was perfect for our pup. If you are looking for shallow swimming this isn’t the best spot - but the swimming for us was perfect!!!! We will definitely look to come back. Host was also very responsive. Cottage itself was lovely and we loved the screened part of the deck for the one rainy night we got. There was a spot for everything!

Nice cottage experience

This place gave the perfect cottage feel with the lakefront and the deck. Martin is super responsive to any questions you may have, which is great! The reason for not giving a perfect 5 star overall rating is only because there was a small issue with the water supply although Martin was quick to resolve it. Overall, we really enjoyed staying here.

Beautiful Winter Getaway

Amazingly charming property with a real cottage feel. The deck is massive and hangs over Muldrew Lake. The open concept kitchen and living room was great for hanging out in with the wood stove burning. Wifi was fast, property was clean, and Martin was attentive to our needs when I messaged him. Great property for a family getaway of with a group of couples. Will definitely book this again.

Fantastic Stay on Muldrew Lake

Our family of 8 adults and 2 children all had the best time enjoying the cottage and lake. The setting is beautiful and the cottage has all amenities, including lots of deck/dock space and screened porch. Our week passed much too quickly for us! We intend to return.

Great vacation on Muldrew Lake

We enjoyed our second stay at Martin's very clean. spacious cottage with all amenities overlooking Muldrew Lake, which we have booked again for next summer. We made lots of use of the deck and screened in porch after spending much of the day jumping from the dock into the water and using our kayaks and SUP.

Wonderful Week

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in every way and will try to rent it again next summer. The only problem we had was with VRBO. I had been looking on a Site "Ontario Cottage Rentals" VRBO seeing that, came to me. After I had chosen this cottage on the VRBO site I was shocked to find out the price was in US $s when I rec'd my MC statement. You need to indicate what currency you are dealing in. I would naturally assume that the price was in Canadian! I won't use VRBO again because of this.

Absolutely Incredible!

We absolutely loved our stay. So tranquil. The rental was spotless. All kitchen cupboards were stocked with all the dishes, utensils, pots and pans you could ask for. The owner was very responsive and did everything making our first VRBO experience seamless. Have booked again for nex5 year.

Excellent property

The cottage was very good My family of 6 adults and 2 children under 8 were very happy with everything The cottage was very spacious and had lots of room to take some time for yourselves or to gather with all quests The screened in porch was amazing for that time of the day when the bugs were out We even caught some big fish right off the dock Over all the week was fantastic

Great view and sunsets and a place to relax.

Beautiful clean cottage. Would not recommend for anyone with mobility issues or with children, as stairs are steep to the cottage and from the cottage to the dock. Large deck but wood is old. We had to keep the baby off the deck due to screws sticking out where the wood had rotted. You cannot sit on the floating dock as boat traffic was frequent and too close for our liking. Nice view and sunsets. Gorgeous screened-in porch. Great place to just relax.
