Indulge in this breathtaking escape along with family and friends as you live the life normally reserved for those who’ve laid claim to their own 9-acre island. This property defines exclusivity, and is located at the head waters of pristine Lake of the Woods, on the picturesque shores of Shoal Lake, Ontario, Canada.

The highest level of privacy and tranquility will welcome you upon arrival, as will over 3,000 sq. ft. of exceptional living space inside a cottage that was seemingly plucked from a fairy tale. Relax to your hearts content as you enjoy an open-concept living area with an immaculate kitchen and grand stone fireplace. The living quarters feature four bedrooms, each with views of the Canadian wilderness, and sleeps 12 comfortably to accommodate large family gatherings you’ll remember for a lifetime.

Outside this expansive haven, an entire island awaits you as time seems to slow down, conversations grow, and families draw closer. Everyone will gather together on your spacious 1100-sq.-ft open deck with outdoor kitchen, bar and dining area including a 440-sq.ft. timber frame pergola with an inspiring Barkman Concrete fireplace and 400-sq-ft of canopy.

Explore’s Adventure Island is your perfect opportunity to distance yourself from the hectic pace of everyday life, while still staying connected as needed with wi-fi throughout the cottage. As you reconnect with nature within your secluded island paradise, you’ll embrace the breathtaking views of lakes and forests painted across the landscape for your exclusive enjoyment. And for those looking for a more active escape, you can enjoy the incredible waters surrounding your getaway or hike the 1.2km nature trail that outlines the island. In the warmth of summer, your perfect cottage vacation destination becomes complete as swimming, kayaking, boating, snorkeling, and world class fishing await you. While during the majestic winter months you can experience snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, ice fishing and snowmobiling to your heart’s content before returning to a welcoming fire.

This is the cottage vacation people dream of, just waiting to become reality for you and yours.
