Designed with families in mind, this comfortable waterfront retreat offers all the ingredients for a classic Ontario cottage vacation. Easily accessible from May through October, the cottage is just minutes off the main road down a quiet cottage lane. Upon arrival, you'll be welcomed by a large, level front lawn and spacious driveway—perfect for a friendly game of horseshoes, letting the kids play, or simply enjoying a sunny morning before heading down to the water.
Inside, the cottage is warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully laid out for easy family living. The front foyer opens directly into the kitchen, making unloading groceries and vacation supplies a breeze. The kitchen flows into a cozy dining area overlooking the sunken living room, where large windows frame beautiful views of Greens Lake from two sides.

The large semi-wraparound deck features a picnic table, barbecue, and Adirondack chairs—the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or evening meals overlooking the property. Step onto the expansive grassy lawn for a game of bocce or croquet before making your way down to the fire pit for stories under the stars. At the waterfront, little ones will love the small sandy beach, ideal for splashing and building sandcastles, while the spacious dock offers plenty of room for swimming, relaxing in the shade beneath the umbrella, or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings of Greens Lake.
