About this property
Boating, Fishing, Swimming, & Relaxing on the Severn River next to Sparrow Lake
Classic private cottage on the Trent-Severn River at the border of Muskoka & Severn Township. Just up from Sparrow Lake, and downriver from Trent-Severn Lock 42 and the warm waters of Lake Couchiching. Only 1.5 hours from Toronto!
Front and rear screened porches, plus an outside deck overlooking the river, lawns and private dock.
Take a spectacular boat trip from the front door to Georgian bay in only a couple of hours, or boat right to Casino Rama in under an hour! Or relax in the screened porch in between swims from the dock.
Only minutes by car or boat to dining and activities at resorts in Port Stanton, Gravenhurst, Severn, and Orillia.
For winter you're only minutes from snowmobile trails, 35 minutes from skiing at Horseshoe Valley, Mount St. Louis Moonstone & Hardwood Ski & Bike.
Three bedrooms, one downstairs and two upstairs. First upstairs bedroom with one queen and two twin beds, second upstairs bedroom with one queen and one twin bed. Downstairs master bedroom with one queen bed. Free parking.
APPROX. Lat Long.: 44.790501,-79.392239.
In winter, we don't shovel the deck overlooking the river.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Jan
Family owned cottage near our childhood home. We looked after this cottage on behalf of other owners for many years and later bought it.
Why they chose this property
This area is close to amenities, and well serviced, yet has a truly removed-from-it-all feel. Lots of great boating right at the dock. Sparrow Lake is only five minutes down stream. Georgian Bay, Lake Couchiching, and all the other great places on the Trent-Severn are close by. The Torrance Barrens is a 20-minute drive. The cottage is over 100 years old and was originally one of several built along the river by a group of friends who all worked at Simpsons-Sears in downtown Toronto.
What makes this property unique
It's so wonderful to wake up in the morning and sit out on the porch and enjoy breakfast while looking over the river and the birds and wildlife. Later in the day we have a choice to go biking, hiking, or boating right from the cottage.
