About this property

A Family Affair! Unique 3 cottage property on Lake Muskoka!

FAMILY AFFAIR
AREA
Located in the calm waters of Dudley Bay on Lake Muskoka, Family Affair offers the perfect location for guests looking to be near local amenities! Within a 5 minute drive from the town of Bala and a 10 minute drive to Port Carling, this cottage is conveniently located in the heart of Muskoka.

PROPERTY
FAMILY AFFAIR is connected by a 150-foot lakeside deck, and is home to three separate cottages that line the perimeter of the shoreline of Lake Muskoka. Just steps away from the water's edge, the cottage deck provides access to the two private docks on the property. The abundance of deck and dock space provides guests with endless options to spend their day! Each cottage is equipped with its own patio furniture on the connecting deck, providing families with personal space without infringing on the neighbouring cottage. The property is also home to two separate docks. For those looking for shade, the first dock is equipped with a large umbrella for lounging. The second dock, which extends significantly further into the water, provides all day sun for guests looking to take in the sun. The water depth off the end of each dock measures approximately 8 feet - perfect for diving! A large portion of level land and a firepit and Muskoka chairs can be found in front of the three cottages. Offering ample room for family soccer tournaments and campfire sing-alongs, this Muskoka property can't be beat!

About the host

Hosted by Jayne McCaw

Host profile image
Jayne McCaw, has been involved in luxury cottage rentals in Muskoka for the last 5 years and recently launched Jayne's Cottages in 2014.

A message from Jayne, Owner of Jayne's Cottages:

As a child, I grew up with the sandy beach of Lake Huron in my backyard. I went to university and settled in Toronto with my family and made my living selling computer software. I starting visiting Muskoka in the summertime and fell in love with the peacefulness and natural beauty of the surroundings. Shortly thereafter we bought a cottage, which was quite an investment, but my family has never regretted it!

Working full time however only allowed my family a 2 week vacation, so we all agreed that we would rent to cover our property expenses and to afford to take exotic family trips overseas. Renting our cottage has allowed my family to experience other special places, like Provence and Tuscany.

Despite the alarming storms that can rush in, Muskoka has a certain “joie de vivre” about it. Blue skies, gorgeous lakes, quaint villages and sunshine nearly everyday certainly helps keep a smile on everyone’s face. Over our years in Muskoka, I have met charming people who have also fallen in love with this magical part of Ontario and who have purchased beautiful cottage properties that they visit frequently. While they are away from Muskoka, I take excellent care of their homes and host their visitors who come from all over the world to enjoy this beautifully scenic Canadian location that is especially close to my heart.

My goal with Jayne’s Cottages is to help both the cottage owner and our vacationing guests make the most of their Muskoka experience. I would love to help you too! Please be in touch!

What makes this property unique

Bring the whole family to the Lake! This unique Lake Muskoka property features three separate cottages located just steps from the shoreline! Connected by a 150-foot lakeside deck and two docks, this cottage was made for a Family Affair!
