About this cottage rental

Situated in Muskoka Lakes, this charming cottage for $200 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. WE DO NOT PROVIDE SHEETS, DUVETS OR TOWELS. Pillows, pillow & mattress protectors are provided. Linens can be provided for an extra cost. NOTE: If you are. five-star guest, search "The Port Carling River House" for additional savings. The River House is well suited to young and old alike. Situated on one acre of level land and with 330' of waterfront, the single level residence can sleep up to seven people in its two bedrooms (one with a Queen bed, and one with a convertible Twin/King and Chaise/Single), a sunroom with Double sized sofa bed, and Double sofa bed in the living room. The house is a true shabby-chic cottage, yet it has heat, electricity, running water, and other comforts of home. However, the house is not what you've come for! With its strategic location on a one acre point of level land, and surrounded by 330' of water, you get practically every exposure from the dock with the exception of true West; though due to the shape of the neighbouring River Delta, there are excellent sunsets from the dock through the summer. The cottage itself is set back only 20 feet from the water at the front side, and boasts a large side yard (towards the dock) and a huge back yard. Historic placement of the cottage on the land, and some well placed mature trees, afford quite a bit of separation from the neighbours. You have all the privacy of a Muskoka cottage with easy access to the urban amenities of Port Carling.​ At night, you can sit under the magnificent Muskoka stars, listen to the loons call, or enjoy a quiet campfire. ​ You can relax on the large dock, or in the new five-person hot tub, and possibly see the historic steamship Segwun or Wenonah go by, or enjoy the parade of antique boats that travel the river. Fishing from the dock or birdwatching can be excellent as you watch the sun go down over the river delta, and the kids can play on the level land with shallow water at the shoreline. The dock is an oversized, steel structured dock with 400sq ft of decking. As well, for your boating enjoyment, there is a protected slip in which to moor your boat, and enjoy uninhibited swimming off the front. A ten minute boatride can take you to either Lake Muskoka (direct), Rosseau, or Joseph (through the historic Port Carling Locks). Paddle directly across the river (about 200 yards) to the best playground in Muskoka at Hanna Park, which also hosts the local Farmer's Market on Thursdays. There is a boat launch, small walking/biking trail, volleyball court and great beach at Hanna Park as well. Take a short drive, or paddle into Port Carling for great shopping, gourmet food, and amazing nightlife. For some longer excursions, the River House is a fifteen minute drive from numerous excellent hiking trails, and a half hour drive from the Towns of Bracebridge or Gravenhurst. You are responsible for your own cleaning, such that our cleaners can focus on sanitization, and you will be subject to additional charges if the property is not left in the condition to which you arrived. Damages must be reported to the owner immediately. Amenities at the River House usually include but are not limited to: A Fully Furnished Cottage Household Fridge Stove Dishwasher Microwave Toaster Coffee Maker Kettle Propane BBQ Pillows, pillow and mattress protectors provided (sheets, duvets and towels are NOT PROVIDED, but are available at an extra cost) Dish linens provided Cutlery Dishes TV Roku DVD Player Cleaning supplies Mid-speed WiFi Bluetooth radio/CD player Hot water Propane fireplace and space heaters Ceiling fans Fire pit (wood not provided) Free parking Private land Hot tub Waterfront Beach access Etc We are not able to provide boats of any kind, but there are local rentals available if planned in advance.

The property was beautiful, great view of lake with privacy. The hot tub was a great addition, everything you could need was supplied. Definitely will be booking for a longer stay next summer. Thank you very much.

Amy's location with the property jutting out on the lake was by far the best of all the cottages there. You really could enjoy the lake and the dock being so far out on the lake was a really cool experience. The views were spectacular, and there were even some leaves turning adding to the colour. The hot tub given the temperatures were a bit on the cool side was put to good use. Our family was very comfortable there and being so close to Port Carling was so convenient.

Our family had a very nice stay at this property. It has everything you need. The location is great, it is right across the beach, it has an amazing dock where you can sit and watch boats go by and it’s very quite and peaceful. We had a small boat that fit perfect on the dock, we were able to take it into Port Carling on a 5 minute ride to go shopping and to restaurants. It was very convenient. It has plenty of chairs to sit on the dock, as well as around the campfire. We hope to return.

Jennifer was very responsive to messages. I lost the email with the instructions and she quickly resent when we were on the way. No problems at all with the place. A great, relaxing getaway. I love that it isn't so far from Toronto.
