Beautiful Custom Built Muskoka Boathouse!

Boathouse living offers beautiful panoramic views of the lake from every side. Enjoy peaceful nights as you listen to the soothing sound of the water/loons in our upper scale boathouse, built directly on the water of popular Skeleton Lake. Known as 'Muskoka's Best Kept Secret', in the heart of Muskoka, Skeleton Lake offers sandy swimming coves, great fishing, water sports, hiking and warm summer sunsets.
Our beautiful custom built boathouse is a rewarding treasure located at the end of a 3 kilo winding cottage road, and is very cozily decorated with antiques, has an open concept living room with queen size pull out sofa, dining room and fully equipped kitchen (incl. dishwasher/microwave). There is also a flat screen/satellite TV(DVD ). A separate bedroom offers a gorgeous view of the lake while lying in the queen size bed. There are lower docks on both sides for swimming and shade as well as a large upper deck including several Muskoka chairs for sun tanning and BBQ for your outdoor cooking. There are two kayaks, canoe, paddle board and swim toys to enjoy your travels around the little islands that are seen from the boathouse. Fishing rods are available. There is a boat slip available. Please review documentation for appropriate boat size. A boat launch is only one bay away! -Please note we also have a two bedroom cottage on Skeleton Lake. You may find this property under VRBO#1861565 in addition to a 3 bedroom under VRBO#2414219.
Skeleton Lake is 10 minutes from Diamond in the Ruff Golf Course, as well as a 18-20 minute scenic ride to the villages/towns of Port Carling, Rosseau, Bracebridge and Hunstville where you can enjoy exploring all of the quaint shops and summer time markets.
