Just off the 401 near the iconic Big Apple in Colborne, a hidden gem awaits. As you roll down a quiet country road and catch your first glimpse of the turquoise waters of Little Lake, you'll feel the world slow down. Welcome to The Hunter Cottage—a lovingly renovated lakeside retreat where every detail invites you to relax, reconnect, and create new memories.
Stepping inside, you're greeted by a bright, airy kitchen—crisp white cabinetry, expansive counters, and all the essentials to inspire your inner chef. Off the main entrance lies a cozy primary bedroom with a queen bed, while around the corner, a second queen bedroom offers a peaceful hideaway. A spacious dining area flows into the living room, where a plush queen sofa bed awaits for late-night movies and early-morning lake views. Nearby, a stylish three-piece bathroom and full laundry amenities make longer stays effortless.
Slide open the glass doors and step onto the back deck, where Little Lake spreads out before you in shades of blue. Dine al fresco, fire up the barbecue, or settle into the covered seating area with a good book and a cold drink. The lake, with its white clay bottom and Caribbean hue, is just steps away—inviting you to swim, float, or simply gaze.
Follow the stairs down to a lakeside fire pit—perfect for stargazing and s’mores. An elevated deck by the water is made for afternoon charcuterie and golden hour toasts. When you're ready for adventure, leap off the large dock into the refreshing water, or challenge your crew to a game on the mini asphalt basketball court out front.
Come experience The Hunter Cottage, where every moment is a new chance for fun, relaxation, and unforgettable memories with the people who matter most.
