Six Mile Lake

If you seek a ready-to-go, well-maintained bright, spacious cottage poised on a rocky ridge where you can enjoy walks through your forested acre to a private sunset bay, or deep-water swimming/boating... then book a showing. You’ll never tire of its rocky green shores and shimmering blue waters.

Nestled on a private, forested lot and only a 5 minute boat ride from the marina, this charming, well-maintained cottage is poised over a protected rocky shore with commanding cross-lake views. Spacious and bright with an upper and lower deck, it also has a power lift, a dock-house, bunky, pump-house, and wood/storage shed. The deep-water dock/swim area is plenty for larger gatherings. You can easily moor a power boat, fishing boat, a canoe, sailboat and two kayaks; the campfire area comfortably seats nine.

Built on concrete posts over cleared bedrock its flooring and foundation are airy, clean and dry. Well sealed it is easy to heat with its centrally located wood stove/fireplace. The recently-replaced roof has aluminum facia and soffits. The full bathroom and kitchen plumb to a simple and reliable septic system constructed with no pumps or intermediary holding tanks. Closing this abode for the winter is simple; just shut the storm windows, secure the floating docks to shore, drain the water pipes and pump, pull up the fishing boat.

Six Mile Lake is a larger clean-water lake fed from the pristine Severn watershed that is at the south-west corner of Muskoka near Georgian Bay. Cherished for its community atmosphere, its 84 km of shoreline has many bays, inlets and islands to explore. (So beautiful, renowned painter David Milne called it home). There are cascades, waterfalls, beaches, wilderness hiking and biking trails, playground tennis courts, multiple jumping rocks and nearby golf, heritage museums, water-ski shows and dining venues that make Six Mile a wonderful place to summer. Just a portage away from the extensive Trent-Severn waterway system, Six Mile is also a short drive to Port Severn, Midland, Coldwater, Bala, Honey Harbour and Georgian Bay's Beausoleil Island National park.
