Cozy Cottage on Four Mile Lake

Our updated, traditional 4-season cottage is located on one of the Kawartha’s best kept secrets, Four Mile lake. The lake is well preserved and full of wildlife, great fishing, and beautiful hillside landscapes.

The property is surrounded by towering pines, offering a private and peaceful vacation experience. The sloped landscape presents an elevated view of the lake from just about anywhere, with flat areas for the kids to play and plenty of deck and dock space for everyone to lounge and relax while listening to nature and taking in the Four Mile sunset. For those who like to explore, the property backs onto 54 acres of association owned land with several walking paths that run throughout.

Inside, the spacous kitchen and dining area make it easy to gather for a meal after a long day out in the sun, while the high ceiling great room (with pine floors milled from trees from the property) and screened in porch (with a live tree running right through it!) offer plenty of space to cozy up with a good book when the weather doesn’t cooperate.

Whether you are looking for a relaxing and peaceful getaway, or a place to play in the water all day, this is the perfect place to book your holiday.
