Escape to your own private paradise on this stunning Georgian Bay Island get away. This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage offers the perfect blend of rustic elegance and modern comfort. The exterior shows deep blue painted siding accented with natural wood trim, and the cottage sits low on the shoreline amid exposed granite — simple, classic island architecture that blends with the landscape. The property features beautiful granite outcroppings that create natural landscaping, while the forest provides privacy and tranquility. Mature pines and cedars surround the buildings, and natural stone steps and a short set of wooden stairs lead down through the trees to the water’s edge. Large decks offer various vantage points to soak in the water views and spectacular sunsets; the main deck and a separate waterfront deck provide direct sightlines to the bay and room for lounging or dining outdoors. Inside, expansive windows and sliding doors bring abundant natural light and panoramic views into the living space, which features warm wood-paneled walls and built-in cabinetry that enhance the cottage’s cozy, rustic feel. A bunkie provides additional private sleeping space for guests or can serve as a peaceful meditation retreat. The bunkie sits steps from the shore and has its own small deck and shoreline-facing window, offering a quiet private spot to rest while still being part of the island setting. Your dock awaits, ready for morning swims, afternoon fishing expeditions, or simply dangling your feet in the refreshing Georgian Bay waters. The dock extends into clear water with easy access for swimming and boating and is perfectly positioned for watching morning light and evening sunsets. The swimming here is exceptional, with clear waters perfect for both leisurely floating and refreshing dips. Located conveniently close to Honey Harbour marina, you'll have easy access to supplies and services while maintaining that coveted island seclusion. This proximity means less time traveling and more time relaxing in your waterfront haven. The lot size or just over 3 acres ensures plenty of room for outdoor activities, whether you're hosting summer barbecues, playing games, or simply enjoying quiet moments in nature. Pathways through the trees and natural clearings create multiple outdoor living areas, and the shoreline’s mix of sand pockets and granite ledges offers varied spots for launching kayaks or setting up a picnic. Georgian Bay's renowned beauty surrounds you, offering endless opportunities for kayaking, boating, and exploring nearby attractions.
