About This Cottage
Escape to this beautiful, cozy lakeside cottage overlooking Negaunee Lake—a peaceful retreat designed for slow mornings, warm evenings, and unforgettable time by the water.
This inviting 3-bedroom cottage feels like home the moment you arrive. Tucked quietly at the rear of the cottage are all three bedrooms and a 3-piece bathroom with tub, along with a convenient laundry room—perfect for longer stays or family getaways. The sleeping arrangements are ideal for couples and families alike, with one queen bedroom, one double bedroom, and a single-over-single bunk room for kids or extra guests.
At the front of the cottage, the space opens up into a bright, open-concept living area where lake views steal the show. The fully equipped kitchen, large dining table, and comfortable lounge area flow together seamlessly, all framed by large windows overlooking the lake. On cooler days, curl up by the wood-burning stove and enjoy the cozy, cabin-style atmosphere.
Step outside to the spacious deck, complete with loungers and a BBQ, perfect for dining outdoors while watching the sun dance across the water. Follow the stairs down to your private lakeside firepit and beautiful new sauna, where you can unwind after a swim or enjoy a relaxing evening under the stars.
The cottage features a large dock with weed-free swimming on a non-motorized lake, offering calm waters ideal for swimming, floating, and truly disconnecting from everyday noise.
If you’d like to bring a boat, the Miskwabi Lake boat launch is just 2 minutes away—offering easy access to a larger waterway renowned for fantastic fishing and boating. Here, you get the best of both worlds: quiet, non-motorized relaxation on Negaunee, and open-water fun just down the road.
Whether you’re looking for a quiet family escape, a cozy couples’ retreat, or a lakeside recharge, this Haliburton cottage delivers comfort, privacy, and the kind of memories that keep guests coming back year after year.
