Having the "grandest view" on the lake comes with some compromises. This means unfortunately our lot isn't level, there are drop offs at various points on the property. The walk down to the lake involves a steeper gravel drive and then some stairs to reach the waterfront, but don't worry, there is no surcharge for the cardio workout coming back up. Please pack appropriate shoes knowing the terrain. Down at the waterfront, there is plenty of room for your boats and PWC, along with the canoe, paddle boat, and kayak that comes with the cottage. There are some life jackets and safety kits in the dock shed however there are no guarantees on size and fit. Callander has two free public boat launches, beaches, parks, and splashpads just minutes away for your convenience. Given the terrain of the property, ranging from the ponds, valleys, drop offs, and of course the lake, children must be supervised at all times and unfortunately it is not the property for those having accessibility/mobility concerns and/or issues. Guest access The entire cottage is yours to enjoy, please be respectful of our neighbours on either side, they are full time residents Other things to note Dock, water toys, and outdoor furniture are season dependant. Driveway is plowed during winter months however the path to lake, including stairs, are not maintained during the winter but lake access is available off site.
