About This Home

As of May 2023

This two-bedroom, two bath Lakeside adorable cottage is the perfect size for easy weekends in Harbor Country. With a high peaked ceiling, lots of natural light, the living room is as bright and cheerful as it is comfortable. Off the kitchen is a fully enclosed screened-in porch, ideal for having your morning coffee or curling up with a good book. The kitchen was designed to be the heart of the home. A fully equipped chef's kitchen, with marble counters and bright turquoise appliances, is perfect for cooking and spacious enough for entertaining. The cottage lives larger than it looks--Beds for ten, with porches and decks for everyone to spread out. The private beach access is about two blocks away. If you have pets, you will enjoy the completely fenced yard. Comes furnished and, with Chikaming Township rental registration, could be rented.
