OUR LAKEFRONT: Our cottage retreat sits on a point with 200' of shoreline and lake views on all sides including peaceful sunrises, big lake vista, & amazing sunsets. The cottage is cooled under a canopy of tall mature trees providing privacy and serenity. Lake views from patio dining, picnic table, bonfire, dock, and boathouse. Stormy Lake boasts of being the highest in the county and hence clean and clear spring-fed waters. We are an easy 2-hour drive from GTA and Ottawa and 15 min. from Haliburton. Our cottage is situated 1 Acre private level lot right on the shoreline steps to the water, and on a gentle slope to clean water entry. All of the amenities of the waterfront are near each other allowing for gathering and feeling together. This is a quiet family-oriented lake with a friendly neighbourhood community. COTTAGE SPACE: *New siding, windows and doors, and stylish furnishings. New linens. Starlink Wi-Fi service. The upstairs includes 3 bedrooms (double, double, 4 twin bunks), a sitting area for reading/ games/movies, and an updated bathroom. Beds have comfortable new mattresses and bedding. The downstairs is an L-shaped open-concept space with a modern updated kitchen, dining, and living room for gathering. The kitchen is very well stocked for family meals. All bedrooms, living room, kitchen, and dining room have beautiful lake views.
PATIO: Adjacent to the dining room is a walk-out to the patio with new outdoor dining for 8 (plus a picnic table) surrounded by lake views. The modern kitchen includes a fridge, stove/oven, microwave, coffee maker, Tassimo, kettle, blender, toaster oven, plates, cutlery, pots, pans, and more! A BBQ is also available.
DOCK:
We have a large dock system on the water (NE facing, sunrise, and all-day sun) with both deep water entry and a clean rocky shoreline with shallow entry. The dock has room for seating - 5 comfy Muskoka chairs and room for sunbathing. This is the best spot to have your morning coffee! Anchored opposite the dock is a rock-textured floating raft for swimming to and playing/climbing on for hours of water fun for the kids. Clean weed-free water swimming!
BOATHOUSE:
A newly built boathouse with a wrap-around deck (SE facing afternoon sun and sunsets) overlooks a gorgeous big lake vista. The boathouse serves as a games room with conversation seating for late-night board games and long chats, a foosball table and darts, fishing rods, 2 Kayaks - single and tandem, canoe, pedal boat, foosball table, etc. Deepwater entry from the boathouse deck as it sits over the water. A great covered spot for hanging out when the weather is not ideal. We've even had group yoga happen in the boathouse and deck. A floating swim mat is anchored out from the boathouse. Fishing from both the dock and boathouse is fun and easy for the kids (and adults). Clean weed-free waters for swimming! This is the spot to have your appetizers and drinks while taking in the sunset and enjoying laughs and good company!
BONFIRE:
Central to all the waterfront action is a great bonfire gathering area in front of the cottage between the dock and the boathouse, close to the water for s'mores and campfire songs. For the young children, a swing set, and sandbox are on-site to enjoy. Some lawn games: corn hole, croquet, bocci, horseshoes, darts, ring toss, and giant Jenga! All outdoor amenities are in close and viewing proximity from inside the cottage allowing for easy supervision and a feeling of togetherness.
OUR LAKE:
Stormy Lake is a quiet family-oriented community. Crystal clear spring-fed lake. Great swimming from our dock and big rocks to climb and dive from at the boat launch. There are some motorboats on the large section of the lake but generally quiet. Our location is on a quiet section of the lake safe for swimming with a big lake view. We have extremely kind and friendly neighbours - we wish to exercise common courtesy and respect for all cottage residents on the lake. Outdoor quiet time 10 pm.

| From morning until night, everyone in our family enjoyed the cottage in their own special way. The peaceful location and privacy made our stay truly relaxing and welcoming.
My husband loved discovering how calm and clean the lake was for fishing. It was especially meaningful for him to share his childhood passion and teach our kids how to fish right there on the water.
We took full advantage of the activities provided. Kayaking around the small island was a highlight, as was stand-up paddleboarding late in the afternoon. Evenings around the fire pit roasting marshmallows were precious family moments-time to talk, laugh, and enjoy the starry sky together.The cottage was cozy and thoughtfully prepared. Morning coffee in the kitchen, with those huge windows overlooking the lake, was a daily moment of gratitude. Dining outside by the BBQ while enjoying the view was equally special.
The beds were fantastic, too! Everyone agreed we slept incredibly well every night.The renovated bathroom was also wonderful.Our kids were thrilled with the DVDs, and the variety of board games provided. Our kids especially loved playing chess together, creating some of the most special moments of our stay and bringing us even closer as a family.
When checkout came, none of us wanted to leave. We left with wonderful nostalgia and unforgettable family memories.Thank you so much to Binh for the incredible hospitality, clear communication, and thoughtful care. We couldn't have asked for a better stay!

| Our stay was wonderful! The cottage is beautifully located on Stormy Lake and was exceptionally clean, well-kept, and fully equipped with everything we needed. It truly felt like a home away from home.
The many water amenities kept our boys entertained all weekend, with kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, swimming, fishing, and relaxing by the lake.
The firepit was the perfect place to unwind in the evening while watching the sunset over the water. The shed was also a great addition, with safety equipment, a foosball table, and comfortable seating.
This was the perfect getaway for our family of five. Binh was a friendly, responsive, and wonderful host. Thank you for welcoming us into your beautiful cottage—we had an amazing stay and would happily return!

| My mom and I get away together once a year. This is very special to me to be able to do this with her. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful and quaint cottage for our get away. Very clean and bright, beds are super cozy. Big beautiful windows but at the same time the cottage stays nice and cool because of the massive trees and their canopy. The water was a perfect temperature for swimming and there are many water activities. The boathouse being converted to a family room is such a nice touch. We loved our stay.

| 5/5 Stars – An Unforgettable Lakeside Paradise!
This cozy lake cottage provides the perfect getaway and exceeded our expectations. The entire property was spotless, comfortable, and felt like a true home away from home.
We had an absolutely magical stay at this charming cottage! Every single detail exceeded our expectations and was able to cater to our multi-generational family. it is clear the hosts take great pride in providing an exceptional guest experience. There are too many things to list that were great about the cottage, but here are a few that made our stay so special
The Perfect Waterfront: Morning coffee on the dock was peaceful and the boathouse over the water offered unforgettable sunset views that captivated us all. We loved having access to great outdoor equipment and spending our days on the water. The daily visits by the local heron, who had its breakfast with us will be a lasting memory.
Cottage Charm, Comfort and Cleanliness: The interior style is cottage cozy and the knockout feature were the massive, bright windows providing almost panoramic views of the lake. The beds were incredibly comfortable – not always a feature at family cottages! The kitchen was highly convenient, modern, and fully equipped for all our cooking needs. There were so many beautiful sitting and dining areas both inside with those amazing window views and outside by the BBQ.
Highly recommended
