Privacy And Beauty Abound At This Roberts Island Paradise

Nestled in the heart of Muskoka’s cottage country, 0 Roberts Island is an immersive, remote retreat where nature’s stillness meets rustic refinement.

Set on 3.66 acres of densely treed land, with 915 feet of prized southwest-facing shoreline, this custom timber-frame estate is surrounded by oak and coniferous forest, and bathed in sunlight from dawn to dusk.

Accessible only by boat — a mere 10-minute ride from Skeleton Lake Marina — the property promises total privacy and an uninterrupted connection to the outdoors.

From the moment you approach the covered slip and sun-soaked dock, it’s clear this is no ordinary island escape. Every detail of the home has been thoughtfully conceived and finely crafted, from the reclaimed hemlock floors to the soaring vaulted ceilings.

A show-stopping river rock fireplace commands the open-concept living space, while double-hung windows ensure natural light and lake views take centre stage.

Our Favourite Thing

The grand river rock fireplace is more than just a focal point — it’s the beating heart of this island home. Towering and timeless, it anchors the timber-frame structure with rustic grace, inviting everyone to gather on a chilly eve. It’s the kind of feature that elevates a cottage from "charming" to "unforgettable."

The timber construction offers warmth and structural elegance, with wood elements echoed throughout the home. The screened-in Muskoka room invites you to enjoy coffee at sunrise or a glass of wine at dusk, mosquito-free. Outside, expansive Trex decking — complete with glass-and-metal railings — flows seamlessly into a landscaped stone patio; a natural perch for sunset gazing after a swim or paddle.

With four bedrooms and two bathrooms, this remote getaway doesn’t compromise on comfort. It’s a place built for family, for long summer days and unhurried evenings, and for the kind of generational memories that only a property like this can hold.
