Tranquil, cozy cottage just steps from the river with miles of boating fun!

Looking for a relaxing getaway? Enjoy your stay at one of 2 tranquil cottages on this spacious property, Riverbend and Riverside Cottages, just steps away from the beautiful Magnetewan River. Or rent both cottages for a large family get together! Located just a few kilometers from Burks Falls and only 45 kilometers from Huntsville you can enjoy the cottage life with many amenities just a short distance away.

Our cottages are the perfect mix of charm and modern details. Both cottages and facilities are fully wheelchair accessible so everyone can be included. The single level cottage is spacious and tidy and provides lovely views of the river. We hope that you feel right at home in the cozy living room, fully equipped kitchen, and comfortable bedrooms. Bedding and towels are provided and are thoroughly washed between guests. We do ask that you bring your own toiletries and beach towels, as well as drinking water.
Though the property and dock are shared between the two cottages, each has a spacious deck and fire pit allowing for privacy. We have the luck of being just moments from beautiful Lake Cecebe by car or boat, and just 1km from the wonderfully unique Midlothian Castle and Screaming Heads.

In summer bring your boat, or rent one, to take full advantage of the 100 kilometers of amazing boating at the doorstep. Enjoy canoeing, kayaking, fishing, or swimming in the river or one of the many local lakes. Located just 48 kms from world renowned Algonquin park, take a day trip to enjoy the beautiful vistas on one of the many hiking and 4-wheeling trails. Take advantage of one of the many local farmers markets on a quiet weekend in Burk’s Falls, Magnetewan or Emsdale or a picnic at High Rock in Sundridge. Enjoy golf? Take your skill to one of the many local golf courses. If you are an equestrian or horse lover visit nearby Coughlin Farms for a ride during any season, and if thrills are your thing enjoy Treetop Trekking or Ziplining at Hidden Valley. And end your day with a relaxing bonfire just outside your back door.

In winter, bring snowmobiles to enjoy the nearby OFSC District 10 snowmobile trails, voted some of the best trails in Ontario. Arrowhead Park, just 45 km away, provides wonderful outside skating and snowshoeing. Or enjoy the small-town charm of Magnetewan’s outdoor rink. If speed is your joy, then Hidden Valley provides downhill skiing.

We believe that pets are part of the family and welcome yours to enjoy the cottage! We do ask that you keep your pet under control and clean up after them as the surrounding property is shared.

We very much look forward to welcoming you to our beautiful cottages.

Brilliant find on my part...perfect fit.
Looking for a nice lovely quiet place to have respite. And close to family town to visit. I've always wanted to see what living by the river was like. So quiet. Pretty. Stars for the gazing. Loads of blankets and bed and dishes and all. Green. Clean. Serene. Host very kind and helpful.
