Luxury Waterfront Cottage on Pigeon Lake: Sandy Beach, Hot Tub, 5m to Bobcaygeon

THE SANDY SHORES COTTAGE on PIGEON LAKE
Modern Comfort Meets Classic Kawartha Charm
Welcome to your private waterfront retreat. The Sandy Shores Cottage is more than just a rental; it is our cherished family escape that we’ve meticulously updated to ensure a warm, inviting environment for our guests. Located on a rare, oversized lot on the shores of Pigeon Lake, this property offers three distinct "zones" of entertainment - just 90 minutes from the GTA and 5 minutes from the heart of Bobcaygeon.
________________________________________
🏠 THE LIVING SPACES: ROOM FOR EVERYONE
Our unique layout is designed for multi-family getaways, comfortably sleeping up to 6 adults and up to 4 children.
• THE MAIN COTTAGE: A bright, fully renovated 3-bedroom home featuring an open-concept living area, a chef-ready kitchen, and a spa-like bathroom. On chilly evenings, gather around the wood-burning fireplace for ultimate coziness.
• THE PRIVATE BUNKIE (Bedroom #4): A stylishly modern separate guest house offering extra privacy. It includes its own half-washroom (sink & toilet), making it the perfect sanctuary for grandparents, teenagers, or couples.
• THE REC ROOM: A dedicated indoor "fun zone" separate from the sleeping areas. Relax in the lounge, challenge the family to Air Hockey, or dive into our collection of board games and cards.
KITCHEN & DINING: Fully equipped with a toaster, microwave, coffee machine, and all the dishes, pots, pans, and glassware you need for lakeside feasts.

🌊 WATERFRONT & OUTDOOR ADVENTURE
The highlight of Sandy Shores is our exceptional waterfront.
• THE BEACH: Enjoy a rare, weed-free shallow sandy beach. It is the perfect safe-entry spot for children to splash and swim in the refreshing, temperate water.
• THE DOCK & LAKESIDE: Take our two kayaks or the dinghy boat out for a morning paddle. We provide life jackets for your safety.
• THE VIEWS: Our position on the lake offers breathtaking sunrises and sunsets. Whether you have a coffee in hand or a glass of wine, the sky over Pigeon Lake never disappoints.

🛁 PREMIUM AMENITIES & LIFESTYLE

• GAMES & GEAR: The large lawn is ready for action with volleyball, badminton, plus various lawn games.

Beautiful property with fantastic outdoor space. We loved the deck, the dock and lawn and the hot tub! The swimming was great for toddlers with a shallow small sandy beach area. For adults the swimming is very weedy. We did find a fun sandbar to swim at in the middle of the lake that was a short paddle away.

The hosts were very responsive prior to our booking and during our stay.The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and more!!The hot tub was clean, relaxing and easily fit 4 of us! We had a question about the hot tub and got a response right away!We spent a lot of time in the hot tub, on the deck, and on the dock. The shoreline was clean and didn't have any weeds! This is a great spot for an adults or families!!! It is also very close to amenities if you need to grab groceries, do some shopping or check out the local restaurants!Thanks again for having us Lena!
