🌅 Elevated Lakeview Retreat on Michael Lake | Pool | 3 Acres | Sleeps 14
Escape to a rare elevated lakeview retreat on Michael Lake, located just under an hour from the GTA. Set on over 3 acres of raised land, this modern (2017-built) cottage offers breathtaking near 360° panoramic views of the surrounding water and landscape—allowing you to enjoy both sunrise and sunset from the same property.
While the property overlooks the lake from all sides, direct water access is nearby via a public launch, making it easy to enjoy kayaking, boating, and other water activities without compromising the privacy and elevation of the home.
What makes this place truly special is the experience it creates. Our family has enjoyed many memorable moments here—from birthdays to New Year celebrations—and we’ve designed the space to comfortably host gatherings while still offering quiet areas to relax.
