About this property

Looking for an adventure like no other? Come experience our beautiful spacious light-filled cottage situated on the east shores of majestic Lake Winnipeg. Located within the borders of the only protected UNESCO World Heritage Site within Manitoba, our unique area is known for deep boreal forests and untouched wilderness. The Ojibwe name for this area is Pimachiowin Aki (pim MATCH - o win - a KEH) which means "Land that gives life" and "Living the good life on the Land". It is the perfect name for this place; a place where nature and culture come together and are inseparable.
Built in 2013, our lovely getaway has an open-concept living/dining/kitchen area, 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, wraparound deck, sunroom, and gorgeous views of the water. Miles from civilization, with just one or two locals to keep you from feeling too isolated, Loon Straits is a hidden gem located on the east shores of Lake Winnipeg, under 3 hours drive north of Winnipeg, Manitoba. The drive up to our cottage is so beautiful that you won’t even mind the distance! Our wraparound deck is the ultimate place to bbq, sip a glass of wine or after-dinner cocktail, watch the sunrise with coffee in hand, observe the wildlife (pelicans, ducks, eagles, beaver, muskrats, foxes, the odd moose or bear- the list goes on!) nap in the hammock, or keep an eye on the kids as they cannonball into the water. The lawn is great for playing lawn sports (bocci ball anyone?), tanning, campfires, or yoga. Our private dock and boat launch are steps from the front door so you can launch your canoe or fishing boat in no time.
WATERFRONT: granite rock, accessible for swimming and fishing. Gorgeous untouched sandy beaches within walking distance.
HEATING: baseboard, wood stove
No smoking

PLEASE NOTE: Our property is remote - meaning there are no grocery stores, restaurants, or gas stations within a 150 km radius of Loon Straits. Please be prepared with enough food, gas, water, spare tires, and a reliable vehicle if you decide to book with us and make the journey! REMEMBER - It's an adventure!

Great place!

Don't let the remote location stop you from booking at this hidden gem. The cabin was amazing and comfortable. Everything was ready, jugs of water, firewood and kindling, kitchen with seasonings and essentials. Fishing was great we caught a whole bunch off the channel dock a short walk away. The few people we ran into were super friendly. Had a amazing time.

Relaxing Holiday

We had a lovely relaxing vacation. No internet or cell service to interrupt the peace. The weather didn’t play ball with us this week as it wasn’t very warm and it was windy every day making the suntanning and fishing not that great. The cabin was lovely and the surrounding area was beautiful and peaceful. The wildlife was abundant to view. The people we did meet were friendly and open to providing any help if needed. We would highly recommend this cottage if you are looking for a remote getaway.

Disconnect and Relax

Modern and spacious cottage so close to the water with a fantastic view of Lake Winnipeg. The kids enjoyed swimming, fishing and kayaking. The large covered deck was wonderful to relax on and feeling the cool breeze off the lake. Having cold drinks from the fridge on the deck was a nice touch. Spent the evenings making smores on the fire pit right by the water and enjoyed the large selection of movies that were provided. Highly recommended if you want to have a lake all to yourself. Quiet and Serene. Just a heads up. Google Map will direct you to go through Hollow Water. Do not go that way as there is no road that connects. Keep on 304 until you turn left onto Rice Road River Road towards Blood Vein.

Remote, Lakefront cabin.

An off the grid location, I've always wanted to visit. Good road access and the availability of a gorgeous lakefront cabin now made the trip a possibility.

I didn’t want to leave

From the moment you walk into Angie’s place you feel right at home. This property has everything and more to relax. From fishing, kayaking, canoeing, bird watching, napping, sunbathing, relaxing by the fire, and more I will definitely be back again. Thank you so much for the memories and holiday.

About the host

Hosted by Sharon Monkman

Hi there! I have owned my cabin since 2017. My Aunt Angie and Uncle Newton built the cabin at Loon Straits in 2013 with plans to spend the rest of their retirement years enjoying the lake and community of Loon Straits. They were lucky enough to have a few years making that dream a reality, and following their passing I was fortunate enough to purchase the cabin from family. My dad's great grandfather migrated from Scotland and settled at Loon Straits. He raised his family along the shores of Lake Winnipeg, making a living fishing and trapping. The land has been in our family for generations and my parents continue to live there, enjoying the peace and isolation of the location. We are in love with our property! I've had so many fantastic times hosting family and friends there. Everyone who comes to stay is in awe of the natural beauty of the land, as well as the ease and comfort of the cabin. Our wide wraparound deck has hosted many a bbq and late night party! The family loves the ease of being able to swim, fish, canoe, and boat right off the shore in front of the cabin! I thought it would be wonderful to share our beautiful property with others who might also appreciate the chance to escape the stress of everyday life and relax in a gorgeous, peaceful setting, surrounded by nature - so here I am in the vacation rental arena!
