2 Cottages Side by Side: Woodlands Birch & Woodlands Spruce
The Woodlands is a unique property with two delightful cottages, each sleeping 6, facing extensive lawns and waterfront with a sandy beach, surrounding woodland and panoramic views. Perfect for two families enjoying time together, and having privacy at the same time, this newly renovated estate is a beautiful peace of paradise on the sandy shores of Balsam Lake..
The exterior of the cottage is lawned, with surrounding woodland, so there is plenty of room for the kids to enjoy being outside when they’re not in the water. There's plenty of patio and garden furniture on the deck, and the firepit at the water’s edge will be the venue for many evenings of marshmallow roasts and fireside conversation.
The interior of the cottages have a traditional feel with comfortable furniture and modern conveniences with satellite TV, DVD and stereo to enjoy even the rainy days. The owners of these cottages have furnished with their guests’ comfort in mind and all beds have new quality mattresses; the kitchens are fully equipped and the living areas have comfortable sofas and chairs.
The open plan kitchen, dining and living areas of each cottage have windows over looking the lake that makes the space very light and airy. The bedrooms are a modest size with storage and there is one washroom per cottage.
There’s lots to see and do in this lovely area. The Trent Severn Waterway and the pretty riverside towns and villages, will keep the country explorers happy, whilst the kayaks and pedalboat may just keep you at the cottage. Whatever your particular country activity there is something for you here.
