Guests will have the secret hideaway completely to themselves during their stay (perfect for those wanting to stay out of the headlines).

The cottage’s cosy living room is made for curling up with a ginger ale and watching a game, while the open fully-equipped kitchen invites guests to recreate familiar comforts - from late-night tuna melts to casually flipping burgers and post-workout smoothies (with extra bananas, of course). Sweeping views of the surrounding landscape flood the interiors with natural light, creating a space that feels both intimate and quintessentially Canadian. It’s cottage core - but elevated.

Guests can also enjoy the home gym, state-of-the-art entertainment system, firepit, canoes and kayaks. For a change of scenery, guests can discover Muskoka and explore the town of Gravenhurst, just a short, scenic drive away, offering quaint shops and restaurants for a glimpse of local life.
