The Beauty of the Kawarthas

My sister and I loved our stay at Cottage#2 at the Saucy Willow Inn. The cottage was perfect in every way; clean, comfortable, and with many amenities. Our hosts, Stephanie and Dave couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. This inn is very well situated also for exploration of the Kawarthas and surrounding areas. The cottage was very peaceful with a beautiful waterfront and and a large deck with each cottage. We look forward to a second stay.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
We're so happy you've decided to stay with us. Stephanie is a nationally recognized serial entrepreneur with a background in Accounting, and Dave is an award winning Contractor & Renovator with a formal background in ...you guessed it....hospitality!
We are well travelled, and decided it was our turn to host you and your family.

We saw the potential in Coboconk, Ontario and specifically The Saucy Willow Inn & Cottages. Over the summer of 2021, we will be making major improvements to the cabins and the property.

Situated on the shores of Balsam Lake, it boasts 200 feet of lovely waterfront, clear water, & a sand beach. As it is the highest point on the Trent-Severn Waterway, Balsam Lake is known as the cleanest lake in the Kawarthas.

There are a ton of things to do here at the inn and the surrounding area. So sit back, relax, and enjoy your stay.

Why they chose this property

The Inn has the coolest history. One of the oldest buildings in Coboconk, and the cottages have all been renovated and updated!

What makes this property unique

Walking distance to LCBO, and restaurants! WATERFRONT!!!
