Stunning Muskoka Cottage with Incredible Views. Great for Families & Winter Fun!

At all-season Skyfall you'll feel as if you are in the middle of the forest yet you're just minutes from the Village of Dorset, and not far from the trails of the Frost Centre and the west gate of Algonquin Park. Enjoy a month-long retreat or work-from-home in the heart of cottage country. Very private setting with inviting paths and strikingly beautiful and natural landscaping. Open-concept living space in 2 Great Rooms with cathedral ceilings, 2 fireplaces with stone hearths, 3+2 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, all thoughtfully designed to take advantage of the glorious lake views and to fill every interior space with light. The indoors open onto a generous entertaining deck and patio area where you can watch the sun go down. Nearby are snow shoeing and groomed cross country ski trails.

Please note, from the cottage there are 122 walking steps down to the lake, a mixture of granite steps, mulch path and wooden stairs.

Skfyall is our part-time home and we ask that you treat it with as much care as we do. As a close-knit group of cottagers, we endeavour to respect each other's space while enjoying cottage excursions. If you are looking for a place to enjoy nature, water fun, fall hikes, snowshoeing, fireside chats and beautiful sunsets, then please consider renting Skyfall. We value our tranquility as do our neighbours. We're happy to share our piece of paradise with like-minded folks, we only ask that you respect our home, our neighbours privacy, and the environment around us.

Important to note:
There is zero tolerance for trespassing on neighbours property. We've had issues in the past where guests have accessed our neighbour's boathouse. This is strictly forbidden. Please understand that trespassing on neighbouring properties will result in charges and/or loss of damage deposit. Video surveillance in effect.

Length of stay: Lake of Bays has implemented a Short-term Licence for rental properties in the area which has resulted in certain restrictions, including length of stay. We have decided that the restrictions are too onerous for STRs so have made the decision to switch to longer term rentals. Therefore we must have a minimum of 31 nights of stay per booking, which is compliant with Ontario's definition of a long term rental.

Dorset is only 2 km away with the famous and amazing Robinson's General Store (https://robinsonsgeneralstore.ca/) and Trader's Bay Restaurant. Algonquin Park is a short drive along Highway 60 in one direction with Arrowhead Provincial Park and its skate trail and tubing the other. The Frost Centre's 25km of groomed cross-country trails are only 10km south along Highway 35.

Please read and follow the cottage code of conduct while you enjoy your time at Skyfall.

If you are looking for a place to party hard, get loud, and crank the tunes, then respectfully, Skyfall isn't for you. But if you’re looking for a family-friendly retreat in a peaceful oasis, this is your spot!
