When you think of Ontario Cottages, images of pine paneled walls and burgundy siding may come to mind from childhood vacations. East Cove Lakehouse is an absolute departure, bringing contemporary & modern to a well-loved cottage country area.
Located in the heart of the Kawartha Lakes, East Cove Lakehouse is a perfect luxury cottage rental nestled on the east shore of Sturgeon Lake, between Fenelon Falls and Bobcaygeon. It's an ideal spot for trips into local restaurants, cafes and shops, whether you choose to drive into town or take your boat and float through the Trent Severn Waterway, docking in town while you explore, for a completely different experience!
As you arrive, you will immediately notice the view and attention to details to the cottage itself and the grounds. Visiting in late fall, we can just picture the hydrangea in full bloom and the rolling green lawn down to the waterfront during the warmer months.
Stepping in the foyer, you are immediately drawn to the wall of windows overlooking the lake offering stunning lake views, spanning to the high ceiling. The interior and design could be found in a magazine, showcasing the natural light and colour palette. To the right of the foyer is the main bath and queen guest suite, while straight ahead, the space is shared with the dining and gathering areas. The kitchen is perfect for entertaining with peninsula seating and every amenity a chef could ask for. It is bright and inviting, perfect for grazing boards and catching up with friends. Continuing beyond the gorgeous stone fireplace, the primary suite will not disappoint, sharing the same view of the lake, it features a beautifully tiled ensuite bathroom and a king bed. The primary bedroom will feel like a retreat all of its own!
Down the staircase to the lower level, you'll find another gathering space with seating & a TV. Around the corner, you will find a well-equipped personal gym! Guests are welcome to use the free weights and treadmill to maintain their fitness routines but we ask that caution is used with any equipment you may not be familiar with. Across from the fitness area, step into your own bathroom spa offering a resort style steam shower.
Outside, the deck spans the back, complete with a ceramic BBQ and a resort-worthy firetable that is sure to thrill those that have been counting down the days until campfire songs & stories! Overlooking the lake, the yard begins to slope down to the shoreline.
Once you're on the large sundeck, the views are incredible. Watching the sunset on this waterside sundeck will be a definite highlight of the trip! Given the distance to the water, guests with mobility limitations should note that there are both natural stone and wooden steps to access the waterfront sundeck and then down to the water's edge/dock. It truly is a stunning spot along the shore that feels surprisingly private, with the boathouse on one side and neighbours farther down on the other. Here you will also find a woodfire table, perfect for roasting marshmallows and making s'mores! There is great deep water swimming off the dock and plenty of space to secure your boat during your stay!
