About this property

3- Bdrm Lakeside Log Cottage with Bunkie & Boathouse--Gooderham Lake, Haliburton

This cottage has everything you imagine for the lake holiday you've been longing for. The waterfront area features all day sun with southern exposure, a floating dock, lakeside deck, a magical furnished boathouse bunkie at water's edge, and easy access for launching the peddle boat, kayak, two canoes (one is a Kevlar) or stand up paddle boards. Your boat may be docked on site with good proximity to the lake's boat launch. If fishing is your game, Gooderham Lake is plentiful with Small and Large-Mouth Bass, Perch, Pickerel, and Rainbow Trout. Swimming is excellent off the dock with good depth and clean, clear water.

Nestled in a pine/birch canopy and overlooking the waterfront is an authentic 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom log cottage with a vaulted ceiling great room and a large open kitchen. Its warm, glowing interior includes an updated propane fireplace, mid-century furnishings and classic cottage decor combine to create a home that is the perfect setting for large families or groups of friends. The sleeping quarters & bathroom, both renovated in early 2021, are bright and modern with a beach house vibe. The open concept updated kitchen with breakfast bar is a great place for gathering but you will likely BBQ on the propane grill, located on the new cottage deck overlooking the lake, and take meals on the magical screen porch which perfectly frames pink sunsets over the lake.

Open out the doors of the boathouse for a picture postcard view of the lake. The boathouse provides an extra social space during the day and seconds as an annex sleeping quarters at night. Enjoy sleeping by the water's edge and watch the moon overlook the rippling water. Gather around the chiminea for a bonfire at the rear of the cottage after dark.

Gooderham Lake boasts a serene 5 mile perimeter. Lined with birch, cedar, hemlock and pine, it is a nature lover's haven. Nearby trails lead to a hidden crown lake. Canoe and kayak the rushing Irondale River route or the many surrounding jewel lakes awaiting your discovery.

This property accommodates 6 to 8 adults and is equipped with a full kitchen, microwave, and dishwasher. A pet policy will be outlined upon request.

During the summer months, stays require a minimum stay of 7 nights and are booked from Sunday to Sunday.

Week in paradise!
We just spent the most glorious week in Gooderham. We spent a week at this gorgeous and cozy cottage with every amenity. From check-in to check-out, our host Anne-Marie was incredible. She communicated everything we may need and even texted the day after we arrived to ensure we were comfortable! The accommodation itself was clean and well appointed with 3 great size bedrooms. The bunkie was adorable with perfect sleeping quarters for kids. The boat house was incredibly cozy and the view to the lake was beautiful. From a peddle boat, SUP boards, kayaks to canoes, we wanted for nothing. We even had goggles and snorkelling gear to explore the beautiful lake. The little beach to the side of the boathouse was the perfect entrance for swimming and our 4 year old loved to play in the shallow water and catch minnows. The path to the water was illuminated each night with beautiful patio lights and it was something out of a storybook. We can’t wait to go back! What a magical vacation in Halliburton!

Comfortable stay
Lovely cottage. The host was exceptionally responsive. She ensured check in/out process was smooth. Loved sitting in the boathouse and watching the water. Close to a store so we were able to pick up last minute items (coffee and firewood).
