Overview ↑↓
Journey's End is not just an idyllic location on a sandy Lake Simcoe Beach. It's a chance to experience Ontario's history in an original settler's cabin while still enjoying all of the comforts of home. The 1854 log cabin was moved to the current location in 1934 and then meticulously restored by the current owners to create two separate and self-contained apartments.
The original CNN railway line is close by and you will see and hear passing freight trains; however, since there are no public crossings in the vicinity, there are few, if any, whistles!
The property boasts a park-like setting alongside picturesque White's Creek and leads down to a wide sandy beach facing west over Lake Simcoe. The waterfront is shallow and sandy underfoot with some areas of small rocks so water shoes are recommended. It is shallow for a long way out making this very suitable for smaller children.
Seating areas by the creek and Muskoka chairs at the waterfront add to the outdoor experience as does the firepit. When The Log Cabin and The Yellow Cottage are rented at the same time, the waterfront and campfire area is shared with those guests.
Creekview is the lower apartment and is accessed off the creek side deck into an open plan living room with comfortable seating and a fireplace. There are two steps up to the well equipped kitchen with a bar counter and stools.
Inside, there is a queen bedroom and there's a 3 piece bathroom (with shower). The golden warmth of the wood and logs throughout create a wonderful ambience, and with stone-surround propane fireplaces, cooler evenings in the fall and winter are taken care of.
Creekview will accommodate a maximum of 2 people. Larger groups (8 - 10 people) can rent Journey's End, which is the two log cabin apartments together with the 3-bedroom neighbouring cottage.
