About this property

AAA location, all day sun, flat & level, sandy shoreline, new build lux cottage.

A luxurious and authentic Muskoka cottage experience awaits you at our newly-built cottage on Lake Rosseau's prestigious and car/bridge accessible Royal Muskoka Island. Kids of all ages will love our flat and level terrain, the all-day sun from our southwest exposure, the protected bay that limits boat traffic and noise, and the gentle sandy shoreline that makes swimming a delight.

Our large open concept living room, dining room and chef's kitchen with cathedral ceiling, large windows all around with stunning long lake views and huge wood burning fireplace makes for comfortable, cozy family time all together.
The deck in front has a dining table and bbq. with long lake views. Weather permitting the best place to dine.

And, at the end of the day, you'll notice that we've taken extra care to ensure your nights are restful. All beds have premium Sealy Posturepedic mattresses and high-quality bedding, and all bedrooms have been sound-proofed to help you enjoy a quiet and restful sleep.


The master bedroom has a king-sized bed and en-suite bathroom, a closet with built-in shelving, a cathedral ceiling, and three sliding glass doors to the deck. Its view is on the lakeside. The other bedrooms have queen-sized beds. The second lakeside bedroom has a satellite TV.

A bunky (on our adjacent lot) provides an extra secluded bedroom away from the main cottage. It’s ideal for teens or anyone seeking a little privacy. It is heated with a thermostat and features a satellite TV, as well as a view of the lake.

Wonderful Fall Weekend
The cottage is beautiful and well situated on a peaceful lake. It has spacious and well equipped. living/kitchen area. The bedrooms are well laid out and comfortable and the bathrooms are luxurious. Since it is Autumn we enjoyed using the wood burning fireplace. The area is great for walking and running and it is a nice drive to Port Carling to look through shops and pick up groceries. It was lovely to sit on the deck and watch the sunset and there were kayaks, paddle boards and a canoe for our use. Our university aged daughter enjoyed using the bunkie as her study! Our hosts were wonderful. We hope to return next year!

Family Vacay
We give Earl's place a 5* rating all around. Earl and Linda met us there on check in to give us the tour. The cottage was immaculate, perfect for three families and our two young grandchildren under two. Linda had everything in the cottage for us, including bedding, linens, beach towels etc. The kitchen was well stocked with your everyday needs. The property was beautiful with a walk out to the lake and a sandy area to play with our grandchildren. The dock was a nice way to spend the afternoon. The bay was very quiet at this time of year but you could see the boats go by on Lake Rosseau. Earl had a canoe, paddleboards, kayaks as well. We will definitely return to this paradise in Muskoka. Thanks for everything Earl and Linda.

Three Generations Family Vacation
Our family enjoyed this lovely cottage with a large waterfront and sandy beach on a quiet bay on Lake Rosseau. Earl and Linda met us at the property and showed us everything we needed to know to enjoy ourselves. Everyone including our Portuguese Water Dog had an amazing week.

Host profile image
Summered in Muskoka all my life at this location. Work and lived in Toronto. Worked in the service industry for 40 years. M.C. of the Royal Muskoka Island picnic for 40+ years. Great fisherman :) Built a new, year round lake house in 2018 and learned to love Muskoka all year. The new experiences keep coming, living our best life. Snowmobiling and exploring the north by sled is the new great adventure. We keep busy and involved by offering our vacation rental for the best of Muskoka experiences summer, spring, fall and winter. It's given much back to us with new relationships that have grown with our guests. Introducing people to the beauty and experiences of Muskoka has become a great pleasure and benefit in my life. I have always been good at having fun in Muskoka, come and let me show you a good time in a world famous location, any time of year.

Why they chose this property

Lake Rosseau is joined to lovely lake Joe through the Joe river & lake Muskoka through the locks in Port Carling and the Muskoka river. The "big three lakes" form the heart of Muskoka & the best fresh water boating in the world. The lakes are filled with iconic scenery, rock cliffs, towering pines and islands and beautiful clean water. There are small towns and hotels and restaurants and shopping accessible by water. Dining in Muskoka at one of the many wonderful eateries with fantastic views by the water is a little taste of heaven in such lovely settings. Taking short trips around the lakes is part of the true Muskoka lifestyle. Closer to home we are located at the end of a "peninsula" or large finger of land surrounded by water. We are on prestigious, exclusive Royal Muskoka Island ( car access/bridge). It has it's own community that is warm, friendly and welcoming. We share a green space of 32 acres in the middle of the Island. It has many amenities and features such as walking trails, basketball half court, baseball backstop, soccer field, shuffleboard, gazebo, picnic tables, bbq, and more. The Island picnic on the Aug 1st long weekend gets everyone to attend and have a good time with games and food. Many life long memories from the "picnic". The speed limit is 20 kilometers at our driveway, only 40 cottages to the end of the road, nice and quiet and peaceful (You will not find another place with all these features, flat and level properties (two) side by side, southwest facing sun all day, half moon shaped level rock point, view for miles at water level, hill across the road protects from cold North winds, large sheltered bay protects from waves, prevailing westerly winds, and excessive boat traffic. Island (car access) community is very warm and friendly. Near end of dead end road, very little car traffic, just my neighbours. Unlimited High Speed Internet with new fiber optic cable technology, for fastest speeds anywhere.

What makes this property unique

A large fireplace. The fireplace stones were collected from the historic Royal Muskoka Hotel fireplace, a few years after it burnt down, about 200 yards down the road.
