Peaceful Lakefront Cottage on Harris Lake

Welcome to Whispering Pines Cottage! We are a road access water front property nestled in a quiet bay on Harris Lake just north of Pointe au Baril.

Our cottage is conveniently located off of Highway 69 and our lake has a marina to rent a boat or launch your own. There is kilometres and kilometres of boating and fishing at your front door. Walking and biking trails are close by and a general store, LCBO and bait shop are only 13 minutes away in Pointe au Baril. Wifi is included.
Our most recent addition is the lakefront shed including a screened in porch.
This is our family cottage and we take pride in its recent renovations. We are excited for other families to enjoy and create their own memories.

- No diving off the dock, the water is shallow (about 3-4 feet)
- If you are bringing a boat, be aware of the white buoy by our dock, this is a marker for our water pump. There is a boat launch at the marina close by.

Please come prepared in case there is a power outage, this happens periodically in the North. When surrounded by so many trees, branches can fall on hydro lines causing outages. We do not allow candles as they are a fire hazard. Please bring flash lights, a portable phone charger and anything else you think you may need. We provide 2 lanterns for emergency use.
