Lake Wahwashkesh Island, Ontario
Previous Page
Privacy here is a given! This large historic cottage, guest cottage and
Bunkie are filled with wonderful antiques and are nestled among 150 year old
pine trees on their very own private 5 acre island.
The incredible 'Boat House Cottage' sits right at the water's edge
with a large deck looking out over a beautiful quiet bay. The interior
is a virtual antique showcase and has an oak spiral staircase leading to
the sleeping loft. This Boat House Cottage, sleeping a maximum of 4
people, is available only when booking the main property, and is $1,295
per week. Please note it is not rented independently of the main
property. The beautiful secluded sand beach has water entry that is
shallow and safe for the young ones, and there is deep water off the
dock for diving. Sitting on the deck gives you an incredible view out
over a large quiet bay, and you can listen to the loons as you have a
perfect view of the sunset. The island has mixed terrain, perfect for
hiking and exploring, and you can't get lost - the hiking paths are
covered with a thick layer of pine needles! The cottages have great
character with wood floors throughout. The large living room is a
wonderful gathering place for everyone to tell stories and share the
day's experiences around the stone fireplace. Wahwashkesh Lake is a very
large, pristine and un-populated lake, providing great fishing
(pickerel, SM bass, northern pike, lake trout). This is ideal for the
true 'get away and relax' holiday where you can spend real time with the
family, playing, reading, enjoying the sunset while sitting by the
bonfire on the beach.....the exposure is south and west and the sunsets
speak for themselves.
There is complimentary parking at the landing and boat rentals are nearby.
Flight tours can also be arranged nearby. The island is just over 1 km. from the
landing, approximately 2.5 hours drive from Toronto, 45 minutes from Parry
Sound. This is truly a paradise island that exudes a rich sense of history and
serenity.
Location:
on a private island at the south east side of the lake in Paddy's Bay,
about a 5 minute boat ride from Auld's Landing, about 45 minutes from Parry
Sound.
