A luxurious and authentic Muskoka cottage experience awaits you at our newly-built cottage on Lake Rosseau's prestigious and car/bridge accessible Royal Muskoka Island. Kids of all ages will love our flat and level terrain, the all-day sun from our southwest exposure, the protected bay that limits boat traffic and noise, and the gentle sandy shoreline that makes swimming a delight. Our 2 properties side by side, both landscaped along the shore, give us more room to play and privacy than most. Toddlers love our sandy play area and sandy shoreline.

Our large open concept living room, dining room and chef's kitchen with cathedral ceiling, large windows all around with stunning long lake views and huge wood burning fireplace makes for comfortable, cozy family time all together.
The deck in front has a dining table and bbq. with long lake views. Weather permitting the best place to dine.

And, at the end of the day, you'll notice that we've taken extra care to ensure your nights are restful. All beds have premium Sealy Posturepedic mattresses and high-quality bedding, and all bedrooms have been sound-proofed to help you enjoy a quiet and restful sleep.


The master bedroom has a king-sized bed and en-suite bathroom, a closet with built-in shelving, a cathedral ceiling, and three sliding glass doors to the deck. Its view is on the lakeside. The other bedrooms have queen-sized beds. The second lakeside bedroom has a satellite TV.

A bunky (on our adjacent lot) provides an extra secluded bedroom away from the main cottage. It’s ideal for teens or anyone seeking a little privacy. It is heated with a thermostat and features a satellite TV, as well as a view of the lake.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop.

Lovely cottage
All of us loved being at your place. The cottage is stunning, with so many amenities and a lot of towels for the kitchen, bathing and the beach; the property so beautiful and tranquil, from any direction, nicely secluded; the bonfire pit with all the wood by the water was really special. The beach was clean with a nice bottom; the paddle boat and kayaks were fun and really nice to have. And loved the availability of different chairs throughout the property to move

Beautiful stay on Rosseau
Such a beautiful property on a little slice of heaven! We had a fabulous weekend and Earl and Linda were great to deal with with lots of personal recommendations, nice tour and accessible for questions etc. We left a 4-star for accuracy only because a hottub was listed on posting but there isn’t actually a hottub. Everything else was perfection and 100% would love to return next season!

Lovely property
The cottage is clean, newly built, comfortable and tastefully furnished. The location is outstanding, with good walking and swimming and proximity to groceries and restaurants. Earl and Linda went out of their way to make sure the cottage was stocked with everything you could possibly need which made the vacation pleasant and stress free. The only downside about the cottage itself is that the bedrooms are a little small but still comfortable. I would have given five stars across the board but for the fact that there was noisy construction right across the road from Tuesday to Saturday starting at 8 am, which disrupted the peace of our vacation.

Wonderful Fall Weekend
The cottage is beautiful and well situated on a peaceful lake. It has spacious and well equipped. living/kitchen area. The bedrooms are well laid out and comfortable and the bathrooms are luxurious. Since it is Autumn we enjoyed using the wood burning fireplace. The area is great for walking and running and it is a nice drive to Port Carling to look through shops and pick up groceries. It was lovely to sit on the deck and watch the sunset and there were kayaks, paddle boards and a canoe for our use. Our university aged daughter enjoyed using the bunkie as her study! Our hosts were wonderful. We hope to return next year!

Family Vacay
We give Earl's place a 5* rating all around. Earl and Linda met us there on check in to give us the tour. The cottage was immaculate, perfect for three families and our two young grandchildren under two. Linda had everything in the cottage for us, including bedding, linens, beach towels etc. The kitchen was well stocked with your everyday needs. The property was beautiful with a walk out to the lake and a sandy area to play with our grandchildren. The dock was a nice way to spend the afternoon. The bay was very quiet at this time of year but you could see the boats go by on Lake Rosseau. Earl had a canoe, paddleboards, kayaks as well. We will definitely return to this paradise in Muskoka. Thanks for everything Earl and Linda.

This property, location and host are absolutely phenomenal. They have thought of every detail in rebuilding this house which made for a perfect stay. The main room and kitchen set up is so great with stunning lake views. Also saw tons of deer and a fox. The location is secluded and so relaxing. And the hosts are amazing, so attentive and kind. This place would also be perfect for lake weather with a huge waterfront and lots of water toys. 1000 out of 10. We will be back!! Thank you!!
