5mins from Parry Sound, Small, clean lake with only 5 other cottages!

  • Nestled on 4 acres of treed land, this cozy 1000 sq ft cottage sits perched above the beautiful shores of McLaren Lake, right in the heart of Ontario cottage country.
    Immerse yourself in a peaceful and opportunity to see nature at this property-loons. turtles, chipmunks woodpeckers, owls, hawks, and dears. For anglers, the fishing is good with small and large mouth bass, pike and black crappie to be caught. Recently Renovated Family-owned cottage. New kitchen, flooring, furnace, and paint throughout. Kitchen has all amenities including coffee maker, toaster, kettle, toaster-oven, pots & pans and more. Open concept family room and dinning area. Table seats 6 people and family room can seat 7. Master bedroom has a queen bed and dresser. Middle room has a bunk bed with a double on the bottom and single on top. The third room has a double bed and dresser.
    There is a wraparound deck on two sides, with one overlooking the lake. Fire pit and BBQ steps from walkout basement (unfinished). Slopping back yard down to the sandy beach and dock. Two kayaks available to use. Quiet lake with no motor traffic and neighbors out of sight. Walking and ATV trails nearby and Rose point is close.
    Great summer sunsets and amazing stars at night. Parry Sound is just a quick 5 min drive away with lots of shops and restaurants. Walmart, Home Depot, Shoppers, and No Frills are all in town along with some amazing small kitschy shops where you can find some unique gems. Great food and lots of activities to do, Island Queen Cruise tours, hikes on Seguin trails, ATV rentals nearby, and boat plane rides with trips to Henry’s for their famous fish and chips.

This property was great, and as described. The cottage was spacious, clean, and very well-outfitted, with a wonderful kitchen and very comfortable beds and linens. It's a quiet little Lake, and we enjoyed swimming, fishing, and kayaking. The owner answered our few questions promptly. Super easy to find and made a good base to explore the area.

Peaceful Bliss

We definitely would stay here again. This cottage is cozy, on a quiet lake and for us the location was perfect, less than 10 minutes from Parry Sound. We took full advantage of the use of the kayaks in the morning. Just remember the bug spray, any where near water it’s a must.

Great cottage with a scenic view

Cottage had everything you might need. Kitchen was stocked with utensils and the bbq was brand new. Beautiful view of the lake with privacy. Kids loved the kayak. Too bad the weather didn’t cooperate. Rick was responsive and easy to work with.

Great family vacation!

This cottage was absolutely perfect for our family and our dogs. It had everything we needed—and more! The movie collection was fantastic, the outdoor space was beautiful, and the water was warm and clean. The surrounding area is peaceful and quiet, making it a truly relaxing getaway. We highly recommend this place to other families and pet owners looking for a serene escape. We cannot wait to come back!

Lovely spot! Spent Friday to Monday, 5 adult family members. Very clean, comfortable. Well appointed kitchen in case you feel like cooking. Great deck for relaxing. Small lake, very private & secluded! Nice little beach, it would be perfect for small children. We had a blast playing with the kayaks & paddle boat. Parry Sound is a short drive away for restaurants, groceries...Highly recommend!

State of accommdation?

First impression driving in - good! Too much crapp on lake front like dog poop & alot of goose poop! Owners need more attention on cleaning up before customers arrive. Deck rail could be more secure. seemed alittle loose. Water flow very poor in shower - infact dangerous for children when showering. good beds except light did not work in Bedroom near kitchen. Generally ok

Lovely cottage

The lake was beautiful and quiet, the cottage was lovely and as described. The only two downfalls were the lake is shallow and there was no dock jumping, so the older kids missed that, but it was great for swimming as there are no motorized boats on this lake. The water pressure was not great, but should not be a deciding factor on this lovely cottage.

Lovely vacation spot

We enjoyed the cottage, the location and the lake. The beach is a bit slimy so it’s hard to wade in but once you get into the deep water the swimming is fabulous. Lots of geese.

Great long weekend stay

The cottage is set on a beautiful lake front property; the pictures don’t quite do it justice. The cottage itself is cute and clean. We enjoyed the selection of games during an unfortunate afternoon rainstorm. They have a great selection of great reading chairs and loungers for lazy days and enjoying the sun. My nephew (3) loved the water, the kayak and the swim toys provided. The property is so close to town and other nearby provincial parks for day trips. We would certainly recommend.
