About this property
3 Bedroom Waterfront Kawartha Cottage with Sunset Views
Welcome to your four-season escape in the heart of Kawartha Lakes—a peaceful, family-friendly waterfront cottage where slow mornings, golden sunsets, and simple pleasures take center stage.
Wake up to tranquil lake views from the living room, sip your morning coffee to the call of loons, and wind down the day watching the sun melt into the water before gathering around the fire pit for marshmallows and stories under the stars.
Set on a large, private lot with 100 feet of shoreline, this cottage offers plenty of space to relax, play, and reconnect—both indoors and out. Just steps from the water, enjoy easy access to Mitchell Lake and all the quiet joys it brings.
