This outstanding property on lovely Wren Lake will make a superb location for your vacation at any time of year. It definitely has the 'WOW' factor!

Our cottages all have what we call the ‘WOW’ factor – the special element that sets them apart from the competition. Tall Pines is no exception – a wonderful cottage on a great lake.
Tall Pines has a wonderful location – just 10 minutes south of the Lake of Bays town of Dorset on delightful Wren Lake. For year round vacations this is a superb choice, having great waterfront for summer holidays, and being close to snowmobile and cross country ski trails for winter. In particular, children will love the sandy beach yard area, whilst the adults in the party will just enjoy spending convivial time in the Muskoka room, spacious kitchen and dining room.

The owners are avid antique collectors and the interior of this lovely cottage is testament to their expertise in selection and placement of the pieces. The rooms are well furnished with a different feel to each – the dining room has elegance yet sits well in an open plan kitchen/dining area; the sitting room is very comfortable and relaxing with a wood burning stove for cooler evenings, and the screened sunroom has a real Muskoka ambience. The newly fitted kitchen is equipped with everything needed for cooking up a storm as befits this quality cottage, and we are challenged to find anything that is missing. We felt this cottage would be one that our guests would return to over again – perhaps trying it at different times of the year.

The four bedrooms offer flexible sleeping accommodation for a couple of families, with three of them having more than one bed. There’s a bathroom upstairs and another downstairs to ensure minimum waiting time! A laundry room completes the comprehensive accommodation.

Outside there’s a wrap-around deck offering seating for every time of day, from taking morning coffee to evening cocktails. And of course, a firepit for convivial fireside conversations and wiener roasts under outstanding starlit skies. During the day, of course, most action will take place on the sandy beach and on the dock. All you have to do is enjoy!
