This is a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom bungalow, but it's really about the water. Perched on Go Home Lake, it's a 3-season cottage you can only reach by boat, and that's part of the charm. You're just a short 5-minute boat trip from the marina, and the Bowrider is included. The lot is huge, 175 x 377 feet, with mature trees and granite outcroppings. Inside, pine floors run through the open kitchen/dining/living area, and there's a cozy den with an airtight woodstove. The Muskoka room wraps around partially, giving you extra space for lounging. A massive deck and big dock make the most of the waterfront, with depth for jumping and boating. It has a wall unit for cooling and baseboard heating, plus wood. Fully furnished, just bring your clothes. Annual taxes are $2,669. There's no garage and septic is on-site. If you're looking for a real cottage experience, not a sanitized house, this is it.
