Cottage Overview:

Kirst cottages is a ten-acre property located on the south branch of the Muskoka River off HWY 118 East - 1 1/2 km East of HWY 11 (12 KM from Bracebridge) with two cottages available for rent. Please refer to listing # 1000 for details and pictures for the one bedroom cottage:

http://ontario-rentals.rent-cottage-canada.com/listingid/1000/

We offer over 700 feet of private shoreline, a sandy beach, floating dock and separate boat docking. The water is clear and traffic on the river is low, so go ahead and enjoy a refreshing swim across the river to untouched wilderness or just a little dip up or down the river. A short boat ride brings you into Spence Lake which offers a wide variety of water sports like sailing, waterskiing and tubing. Sip you coffee on a dock in the early morning mist, watching the beaver, heron, and the sunrise. Enjoy a crackling fire on a great piece of Canadian Shield while counting stars and fire flies with a chorus of frogs. Unwind. Relax. Enjoy.

Appliances and furnishings:  Both cottages are fully equipped with bedding (pillows, sheets and blankets), dishes, refrigerator, stove, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, electric heat, barbeque, deck and patio furniture. Please bring your own towels and drinking water. Each cottage has a fire pit and chopped firewood is available for a small fee. Rent one or both.

The two bedroom cottage has a double-sized bed in each of the two bedrooms.  There is a three-piece bathroom and fully equipped eat-in kitchen.  The comfortable living room has a double-size pull-out couch, a small wood fire place, and opens to a screened-in porch which overlooks part of a forest, field and large pond. The pond also is a favourite spot for fishing.


Area activities: Santa's Village Theme Park, several excellent golf courses, horseback riding, boat rentals, scenic commercial boat cruises on Muskoka Lakes leaving docks at Bracebridge and Gravenhurst, movie theatres, Gravenhurst Opera House, Rene Caisee Arts Centre, shopping, public beaches, restaurants, video rentals, provincial parks, bird watching, library and so much more!
