About this property

Beautiful Log Home on Quiet Private Lake

The Cottage is a custom built Log Home designed for the entire family. It is located on a private lake 350km North East of Toronto. Loons and beavers will greet you as you sit on the dock in the morning! If you are looking for a quiet and peaceful getaway....this cottage is for you! This is my 4th Year renting and have truly enjoyed sharing the cottage with everyone.
Whether you like to sit and relax, canoe, fish or just lay out on the dock, you can do it all at the cottage. The night skies are especially dark and stargazing is a favorite thing to do! The Cottage can sleep up to 6 people with room on the couches for 2 more!

If quite from the City living is what you need? This is the place. It is so serene and quite you hear yourself thinking. Fishing is good or just sit on the dock and enjoy more silence. Gary the host goes out of his way to ensure you have a good experience. Highlights for us were, fishing, seeing a family of loons go by us while on the dock, it was so amazing, star gazing with Gary and seeing his observatory was great since Gary has such knowledge of the Universe.

We Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Farm Lake. Everything was exactly as advertised; great swimming, beautiful cottage, excellent fire pit and super secluded. Plenty of room for our family who came up for a couple of days as well. (we pitched a tent.) Thanks again to Gary who also gave us a peek at the sun (through his special telescope), as we had never seen it before. It was surprisingly awesome.Thanks again Gary.

Great time at Gary's. This is our second visit to the cottage. It has all the makings of a fun cottage getaway - all you need is clothes and food! The lake was divine and we had a chance to go canoeing and enjoy lots of swimming. The cottage is situated in a shady neck of woods which is great for the summer. There were less fans than last year, which are so necessary for the heat and the cottage could have used a deeper clean from past guests. Otherwise a great location and excellent host.
