Wilderness Waterfront Retreat | House in Port Severn

3 Bedroom House in Georgian Bay, Port Severn
Boat access cottaging is perhaps the best-kept secret of Georgian Bay Cottaging: There is nothing quite like truly "disconnecting" with regular life by landing at the dock of a cabin out of reach from the intrusions of normal civilization.
Tucked away in the wilderness paradise of Cognashene Lake on Georgian Bay, over 300ft of clear, deep waterfront that also includes a sandy beach with shallow water entry.
Main cottage has 3 bedrooms, a full bathroom, open concept kitchen/living room with all the amenities of home including dishwasher, induction range, oven, microwave, and a very well-equipped kitchen. Washer and dryer. Hot showers. Wood-stove.
Western facing view through large windows with incredible sunsets.
Large grassy lawn in full view of deck. Great bass & pike fishing right off the dock and nearby. This boat access cottage backs onto thousands of acres of hikeable crown land. Clean deepwater swimming off the shore or dock as well as a small sandy beach for the kids. Large outdoor fire-pit. Or go for an evening paddle around to the back inlet to observe the resident beavers.
Gas BBQ with included propane.
A myriad of water toys and lawn games for your enjoyment:
- Canoe
- 2 Stand-up Paddleboards
- Pedal boat
- Youth kayak
- Large water mat
- Noodles/inflatables/etc
- Bocce Ball
- Horseshoes
The cottage stays cool on hot summer days being well situated under shade trees, with lots of ventilation.
