Peaceful Kawartha Lakes Cottage | Kayak, SUP & Stunning Sunsets

Welcome to your peaceful escape on beautiful Raccoon Lake in the Kawarthas.

This charming, family-owned cottage has been lovingly cared for over the past 30 years and offers a truly special place to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy nature. Inspired by Austrian roots and built with craftsmanship and heart—including custom stonework in the fireplace, foundation, and outdoor walkways—this cozy retreat is perfect for couples or small families seeking a quiet getaway.

Unlike busy, high-traffic lakes, Raccoon Lake offers a calm, serene setting—ideal for paddleboarding, canoeing, kayaking, and taking in breathtaking sunset views. This is not a party destination—it’s a place to unwind, recharge, and truly disconnect.

Spend your days on the water, exploring nearby nature trails, or enjoying a relaxed outdoor meal surrounded by trees and lake views. Evenings are best enjoyed by the firepit under the stars, followed by peaceful nights in a quiet, nature-filled setting.
