This family cottage is available to select renters looking for the Weslemkoon Lake experience. Having undergone an extensive upgrade, the open concept Great Room is centered around an exquisite, granite fireplace that reaches to the cedar-covered, cathedral ceiling. The updated, well-stocked kitchen and dining area share this space and provide direct views over the pine-dotted lawn to beautiful Weslemkoon Lake.

Directly outside this wonderful space is an outdoor sitting area, including a teak dining set, BBQ and comfortable, chair and sofa lounge. An outdoor hot tub awaits.

The sleeping wing includes bedrooms that are comfortable, spacious and include King, Queen and two single beds. The Family Room offers accommodation on a pullout sofa.

This large Family Room is in a separate wing and contains television, games, puzzles and quiet reading spaces. A large picture window frames the lake.

There's a well-appointed bathroom at each end of the cottage.

Central air conditioning has recently been added for your comfort.

Covering 2400 square feet, there's plenty of room for a fun-filled getaway to one of Ontario's hidden gems.

Enjoy the water with our selection of canoes and kayaks. Fish from the dock or sit and watch the boats go by. Feel free to use our boat port as a place to keep your boat during your stay. Our waterfront is more suitable for splashing than swimming. Having your own boat is an ideal way to explore this big, beautiful lake.

ShirleyAnn

My family recently rented this beautiful cottage & we had a marvellous time- Southgate has everything you could possibly wish for inside & out.It is very clean roomy & comfortable. My family loved our week we spent there & my Granddaughter caught her very first fish! Thankyou Brad for our great Family holiday!

Stayed: August 2025

Owner response:

Thank you so much ShirleyAnn.

Mike

My family and I recently rented this cottage and I have to say we were very impressed. Brad was a fantastic host and instantly addressed any issues we came across (which were very minor). This cottage is very well equipped and has everything you can think of. We enjoyed everything there was to offer from all the games, fishing, paddle boarding , kayaking', lake tour on a pontoon boat at the marina and relaxing in the hammocks. We would definitely rent again in the future.

Stayed: July 2025

Owner response:

Thank you Mike. I'm always happy when families enjoy their stay at Southgate.

Brenda

My husband and myself as well as another couple just returned from a week at this lovely cottage. We initially chose this as a one level easy access place for a person with a mobility issues who uses a walker. It was much better than we had hoped for, and I know this is important for many travellers.
Southgate is exceptionally well laid out, roomy, and very clean.
Beds and linens were quite comfortable as well as the furniture throughout.
This cottage is extremely well stocked, everything imaginable was provided.
Plenty of room outside as well - we enjoyed the patio, the large yard for games, and the hot tub a definate bonus on the chilly nights.
The area around Southgate is very friendly and Weslemkoon Marina staff were amazing- helpful and knowledgeable.
Brad is a fantastic host with immediate response to every question. He truly created a beautifully decorated home away from home that we would love to visit again.

Stayed: August 2023

Owner response:

I'm happy you all had such a good time.

Laura

We spent a fabulous week at this wonderful cottage which was spotless and had everything we needed and more. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could possibly need and the family room was a great place to hang out in the evenings.
The property is beautiful and the lawn is perfect for playing games. The waterfront is weedy and not great for swimming but it was fun taking the canoe and kayaks out to explore the lake. Fishing is great too.
The owner Brad is fantastic and made the rental process a great experience.

Stayed: July 2023

Owner response:

Thank you Laura. It's always great to hear of fun family vacations at Southgate.

I am not one for submitting reviews however I believe this rental clearly
deserves one.
We rented for 2 weeks and were amazed at the attention to detail which was
provided. The kitchen was supplied with so much more than what you would expect
from a cottage location. On a rainy day we were able to bake carrot cake and make rice crispy squares. On other days we were able to prepare a meal of ribs starting in the large crock pot which even included a cook book. We did bring a lot of things which were not required as already provided. The BBQ hooked up to inside propane meant we never had to worry about running out of fuel, which we have done on a few occasions at home.
The hot tub was a wonderful addition, the wood provided for the fire pit along with kindling and bucket for water to put out the fire at end of night made it so easy to enjoy.
There is a cart outside at the end of walkway for use to load up your luggage, I have to say this put a smile on our faces.
The lake itself is beautiful however you would be better off to have a boat if you wish to enjoy it at its fullest. We did use the kayaks quite a few times but did not venture into the canoe.
The property is perfect if you have children as it is very large with lots of room to play. However there is not really a beach area for them to play at. Limited on words here so last ones are do not hesitate to rent, the owners are exceptional.
