Cute four-season cottage with sandy beach on Lake Muskoka

Welcome to the perfect and affordable small family vacation getaway on ever popular Lake Muskoka! This 800 sq. ft., 3 bedroom cottage is cute and as clean as a whistle with all the comfort conveniences of home.

The cozy living room has beautiful lake views and a gas fireplace for cooler evenings and a ceiling fan to make for more comfortable nights on humid summer evenings. The well-equipped kitchen has lake views as well making it enjoyable while prepping and making meals. Although there are seating areas inside for snacking or dining, the place of choice on beautiful summer days will be the deck overlooking the expansive lawn and lake. The cottage is equipped with a whole house water filtration system! Offering clean water for you to enjoy on the hot summer days! The hot water tank is 15 gallons which is normally good for about two showers, then may require 20 - 30 minutes to replenish.

The front or back lawn are great for the kids to play catch or throw a frisbee and the 25 feet of hard packed sand at the waterfront is ideal for young and old alike to safely splash and play. There are rocks marked by a green buoy in front of the property that can easily be swam out to and explored with a snorkel. You can stand on these rocks and the water will come up to your hips. With the property facing south enjoy plenty of sunshine from late morning to sunset.

The property is located in one of the most sought after parts of Lake Muskoka, directly between the towns of Port Carling and Bala. St. Anne’s Catholic Church is a heritage building only two properties away where there is also a municipal dock, an excellent place to view sunsets! Boat parking is provided overnight at the adjacent boat house, with daytime parking available at the municipal dock, or right on your beach!

The country road in front of the cottage is great for scenic afternoon walks or runs and for nature lovers keep your eye out for deer and blue herons, commonly sited weekly. Finally, for avid boaters, you can tour “The Big Three” (Lake Muskoka, Lake Joseph and Lake Rosseau). With it's central location, you can easily access Bala, Port Carling, Bracebridge, or Gravenhurst by lake!

The lake also hosts frequent fishing derbies so needless to say keen fishermen won’t be disappointed. The rich cottage history of vacationing on this famous lake is sure to please the whole family!

Fenn Point Cottage Port Carling
Clean cottage. Bathroom needs upgrading. There was a portable air conditioning unit which placed some water in the hallway. Shoreline pictures showed a nice large dock, however it was not part of the property listing. That is very misleading.

Beautiful view
We had a 3 night mini vacation, enjoyed it very much. Love all the amenities included-it was nice not to have to bring sheets, towels, bottled water etc. There's even a Keurig for that much needed coffee! The view is amazing, and the road is fairly quiet for my walks. Would definitely stay here again!!

Amazing getaway!
Our 5 day stay at this cottage was amazing! Communication with the owner was great, even when the internet went down for a day due to lightning - we were kept up to date. The water was clear and great for swimming! And the kitchen was fully stocked. All in all, a memorable vacation. Would book again!

My family and I had an amazing time! We loved the cottage and went swimming everyday. The private beach and swim up dock was a hit! We hope to come back again next summer! Communication was great with Stephen, he answered any questions we had and was accommodating!
