Experience Muskoka in our dog friendly cottage with 2 beautiful A-frame bunkies
Welcome to Deerwood Cabin! Experience Muskoka in our warm and rustic cottage with two beautiful A frame bunkies. This dog friendly property is 1.5 acres and is surrounded by trees that will give you a sense of privacy while feeling immersed in nature. With over 200 feet of waterfront, you will be able to enjoy the lake as you please with a dock and a sandy beach. This cottage is located roughly 25 minutes from Huntsville, where you will find many restaurants, bars, grocery stores, and all the amenities you may require during your stay. Also, nearby are several parks (Algonquin, Arrowhead, and Limberlost) which have opportunities for day trips such as hiking and canoeing. This property is the perfect getaway or quiet retreat for couples, families, or singles. This space is not suitable for parties, events, loud music, or fireworks.
The main cottage consists of the spacious master bedroom with king sized Endy mattress and a second bedroom with twin bunk beds. The main living room overlooks the lake and is shared with the kitchen. This is a great space to be while socializing and preparing food, playing board games or watching Netflix on the smart TV. We have recently upgraded to Starlink internet.
There is an additional beautiful sitting room with large windows overlooking the property with a wood burning stove. This room is connected to the other living room and is the perfect spot to curl up and read a book on the cozy chaise sofa. This room also has a dining table with seating for 6.
The original cottage-style kitchen has everything you need to prepare your meals. Our tap water comes from a private well and is filtered with a UV system and is drinkable throughout the cottage. Please note that the kitchen does not have a dishwasher.
There is also a complimentary coffee bar with a Nespresso machine, a variety of teas, a French press with fresh ground coffee, as well as raw sugar.
On the lakeside deck there is a dining table and chairs to enjoy outdoor meals as well as a BBQ.
There are also two additional cathedral A-frame bunkies for sleeping (available May – October) that have Endy queen beds in each. Each A-frame has its own seating area. Both A-frames have baseboard heating for the cooler months and electricity with lights and outlets for charging devices. There is no bathroom in this area.
Please note, we do not have air conditioning, however there are ceiling and floor fans throughout.
We provide all bed linens, bath and beach towels.
There are no additional cleaning fees for bringing dogs along, but please let us know they are coming so we can prepare :)
There are two large black dog towels laundered for each new furry guest and hung at the front and back entry. Please make sure your dog is clean before venturing inside to prevent stains and/or damage to bedding and furniture. As a courtesy, please make sure your dog does not venture onto our neighbors' property as there are no fences. Picking up dog poo is an expectation, including in the forest.
$1500 security deposit required along with rental agreement contract, which will be returned within 15 days of check out if no damage or cleaning fees apply (including correct garbage, and recycling sorting as per welcome guide instructions provided).

We enjoyed a wonderful stay at this lovely property. The main cottage is very well equipped including dog treats and Nespresso machine. There were more than ample cooking utensils and bedding/towels. The cottage was very clean and the bunkies were an excellent option for my adult children to have some “away from the parents” time. Rebecca was very attentive to our needs. We didn’t want for anything. Many thanks for helping us create this lasting family memorial!
