Summer in Ontario means cottage season. For many, this means spending time at their waterfront properties, while others might find themselves lucky enough to enjoy a few sun-filled days at their friends' and loved ones' cottages.
Though, if you find yourself not falling into either of those categories, you may want to consider renting a waterfront cottage before summer ends. If that's the case, let us entice you with a family-friendly home on beautiful Stewart Lake.
Located in the Township of Georgian Bay and Township of Muskoka Lakes, this property is the ultimate cottage country retreat.
Situated on a secluded bay on pristine, natural, spring-fed Stewart Lake, this 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom home (that can comfortably sleep 11 guests) boasts modern charm and a traditional cottage feel, while featuring spectacular lake views and everything you could ask for in a family vacation spot.

On the inside of the home, you'll find a spacious kitchen with modern appliances and a large island -- the perfect spot for the little ones to enjoy breakfast, while parents can enjoy their morning coffee either in the screened Muskoka room or on the back deck.
Set off the kitchen, the spacious living room provides ample space for guests to sit and relax, watch a movie, or simply enjoy each other's company. There's even a gas fireplace to really make the room feel cozy.
Rain on the forecast? Guests will be entertained inside for hours, thanks to the games room, featuring an arcade game with over 1,000 games, a flat-screen TV, as well as a wall-mounted candy dispenser and a pull-out couch.
On the upper level, there are four additional bedrooms. One features a double bed -- perfect for kids, a lake-view guest room with a queen bed, another guest room with a bunk bed, and a lake-view principal bedroom with a 3-piece ensuite.
As most vacations go, those staying for longer than a week -- or just for those who need to do laundry -- there is a spacious laundry room to the right of the front door with a second fridge.
