Cottage #721

There is something just so majestic about Georgian Bay and its natural raw beauty! No matter where a cottage is on the shores of this vast expanse of water, you are drawn into the tranquil grandness of its presence and this property and cottage compliment it magnificently!

Welcome to this fabulous 2,600 sq. ft., 3 level, 7 bedroom cottage, nestled on one acre of land, tucked in off of a main channel on beautiful Georgian Bay. The current owners have over 60 years of family history in Pointe au Baril. Their immediate family have been coming up north for a few weeks every summer for over 15 years, visiting a variety of locations across cottage country, including this family owned cottage. When it became available for purchase, they knew this is where they wanted to make permanent roots to accommodate their large extended family of siblings, children and grandchildren!

Along with fond family memories made here, they also love the easy road access off of the main highway, having a private boat launch on the property and especially enjoying gorgeous sunsets around the fire pit roasting marshmallows, all of which they are sure will add to your stay here. As you meander through the quiet windy road after Pointe au Baril and start to slow down the pace of the hectic city life left behind, you will arrive at your destination and be welcomed by an amazingly picturesque cottage and waterfront.

The cottage was built in the 1950's and the interior is a wonderful combination of old and new, keeping original rich wood floors and walls throughout, along with cottage decor accents, while renovating and adding updated light fixtures, installing a kitchen island, granite laminate kitchen counters and stainless steel kitchen appliances.

The cottage offers 2 completely separate, self-sufficient living spaces, each with their own entrance, comfortably accommodating a large family or 2 small families. The interior of both levels are impeccably maintained and tastefully decorated, with the main level having 3 bedrooms and a lake facing open concept kitchen/dining/living room with a direct walkout to the deck, while the lower ground level has a spacious flow connecting the bedrooms, family room and kitchenette with its own side door walkout to the expansive lawn and waterfront. The upper level is a couple's haven consisting of only a spacious master bedroom with a 3-piece spa-like ensuite bathroom and a direct walk-out to a small private balcony, the perfect spot to enjoy morning coffees while taking in the spectacular lake views.

The waterfront at the property has so much to offer to both young and old alike, along with the breathtaking and sweeping visual gift of dotted islands on expansive water. The sandy shallow entrance at the water's edge makes it easy for the elderly to walk into the lake and a great place for the young ones to safely splash and play. The water at the end of the large dock is deep, perfect for jumping into the refreshing lake to cool down on hot summer days. As the property is surrounded by crown land, there is an abundance of wildlife around, so be sure to keep your eyes alert for deer and fox and keep your ears alert for the haunting call of the loons.
