Kawartha Waterfront Home with 2 Bedroom+Kitchen Boathouse

Kawartha Luxury Waterfront Home with Live-In Boathouse!
In Fenelon Falls, a village nicknamed the "Jewel of the Kawarthas," a 4000 square foot luxury residence with a live-in boathouse dots the Sturgeon Lake shoreline in south-central Ontario. Sturgeon Lake is one of the Kawartha Lakes—a chain known for excellent fishing, particularly Largemouth and Smallmouth bass and Walleye.
This phenomenal waterfront retreat consists of an expansive main cottage with four bedrooms and a lofty live-in boathouse with two bedrooms. The main house has three levels and a basement with a walkout—comfortably accommodating large families with children. On the main level, the newly renovated kitchen comes dressed in white cabinetry, quartz countertops, and mosaic subway tile backsplash. It sports sleek stainless-steel appliances, including a beverage fridge, and comes fully equipped with everything one might need to cook a satisfying meal after a day out on the lake! The open concept living room, kitchen, and dining room are perfectly designed for entertaining with a large sofa with a love seat, a decorative fireplace, a dry bar, and a flat-screen television with cable TV. There is a separate dining area with a large harvest table offering seating for six, and there are stools at the breakfast bar as well. But best of all, perhaps, is the large deck off the living room that promises an idyllic setting for a picturesque sunset dinner at the outdoor table.
Back inside, the main floor hosts a welcoming guest room with a queen-size bed and a full farmhouse-style bathroom with shiplap walls, neutral colors, and a stunning walk-in tile shower. The luxurious master bedroom is on the second level of the main cottage and provides guests with a king bed and a private ensuite bathroom complete with a glass-enclosed stand-up shower. Patio doors open from inside the master bedroom to a large wrap-around deck. The loft room sleeps five guests and features a twin-over-queen bunk and a queen bed with a trundle—perfect for the kids! On the top level of the main cottage, there is a large beach house-inspired bathroom with a double sink vanity, a large stand-up shower, and a spacious jacuzzi tub with a spectacular view of the lake. The fourth guest room is on the lower level of the main cottage and is appointed with a plush queen bed and a generous closet. Here, guests will find an impressive and homey recreational room with a pullout couch, four recliners, a large 46" flat-screen television with VCR, DVD, and cable TV, a propane fireplace, and a billiard table for enjoyment.
When you desire additional privacy or are simply traveling in a large group, the spectacular boathouse is a separate two-story accommodation sitting directly on the glistening waters of Sturgeon Lake. Cathedral ceilings invite you inside the brand new and well-lit kitchen fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher and Jenn-Air oven with downdraft ventilation. The open concept granite and slate kitchen flows into the large dining area, seating four around a table with views and offering additional seating at the island. The large living area is quite cozy with a 40" flat-screen television, a gas fireplace, a plush leather couch, and floor-to-ceiling windows allowing for tons of natural light and views of the water. Nearby, there is a wonderful queen bedroom with a washroom, including a soaker tub, shower, and pedestal sink. Follow the stairs to the loft to reveal the lovely master bedroom, which has a queen bed, a pullout twin bed, and a walk-in closet, all while boasting more spectacular lake views.
Wi-Fi is available for the main house and the boathouse. Also, there is a washer/dryer for your convenience. Responsible pet owners welcome (for a fee) and smoking outside if you please. The exterior has several decks overhanging Sturgeon Lake, and there are canoes available for use. You are a short boat ride to Fenelon Falls, which is on the Trent Severn Water System—an inland waterway that runs from Lake Ontario to Georgian Bay and beyond. Supplies are readily available in Fenelon Falls, where there is a large grocery store (Sobeys), quaint shops, liquor & beer stores, restaurants, marinas, service stations, and so much more! You are a quick 10-minute drive from Garnet Graham Beach Park and only five minutes from The Little Pie Shack—a local gem dishing up fresh, delicious pastries and treats.

Excellent spot for a family reunion
This well appointed, comfortable and clean location was ideal for our 11 person, multi-generational family reunion. Everything was as advertised and interactions with Warren and Ron were friendly and efficient. Only caveat would be that stairs inside and out are steep, so might not be the best for people with mobility limitations.

Beautiful view, close to town
The cottage is in a good location, although the property is not large. Summer time would offer more 'outdoor' space. Kitchen is well equipped. Beds are very comfortable. We enjoyed the pool table and downstairs living area, as well as the spacious living room. Seating for 6 at the table and 4 at the counter. Stairs to second level and basement are circular and could be hard to navigate for some. Open concept to upper level. Host was easy to reach and responded quickly and positively to our queries and requests. Highly recommend.

Outstanding!!
Stayed in this wonderful property for one week. Group included 9 adults and 2 children, ages 9 and 12. The location is SPECTACULAR! Everyone had an amazing time. Met Warren the owner, at check in, and he gave us a very thorough walk thru. We had no need to communicate during our stay as nothing came up but I have no doubt he would have been very responsive. The only struggle we had was around towels. If I had one suggestion it would be to consider providing some beach towels. Two of our group were coming from the US and five from another province. It wasn’t practical to bring them with us. And another cooking spatula for the kitchen! Our mornings were spent on the upper deck and down at the lake. Technology screens for the kids were happily kept to a minimum because they were busy swimming and boating. Our son and daughter in law had gotten married the day after we checked in and loved having the boat house to themselves. We also had a thunder and lightening storm one night which was very exciting as our grandchildren seldom get them where they live. All in all, a really GREAT week for everyone!

Beautiful Cottage
This cottage was beautifully renovated without losing the cottage vibe. The beds and living spaces were very comfortable and the property boasted all the amenities you could possibly need for your stay. The scenic views from the cottage windows or from the wrap-around balconies are breathtaking. Communication with the host was very responsive and friendly. Fenelon Falls is a lovely town and the cottage is close to grocery stores and restaurants.

Great new years get together
We stayed over the new years weekend and had a blast. There was six adults and 7 kids that slept comfortably in the main house. Was very clean with no issues to deal with. Warren was great and communications were amazing. We talked back and forth when needed to with no problems. Responds fast. Great area with lcbo and grocery store almost walking distance. Would stay again and highly recommend this cottage for anyone.

I stayed with a couple of friends for 3 nights during the winter time. The view of the lake from the large windows were breathtaking! Warren was super responsive and check-in instructions were clear. There is enough kitchen supplies so you don't need to bring anything extra. The beds were super comfy, place was clean and overall a really fun experience! The pool table was a plus!

Little niggly things
It had everything that was promised in the Ad. There were some little things which irritated rather than upset ie, only one light above the pool table rather than three, two pool cues, one without tip, difficulty the older and younger guests had handling the ground floor bathroom door. It stuck repeatedly and was confusing to lock for privacy. The steps to the water without handrail discouraged older guests from going down them. The activity missed had to be balanced against the risks of injury if you fell. More night lighting would also be better. The frig in the main house was surprisingly small; 11 poeple need a lot of supplies

Great spring escape from the sity
This weekend was amazing! We enjoyed first warm days at the lake. Pedal boat and kayak let us feel approaching summer. Waterfront views, sunrise and sunset, friendly neighbors and so welcoming host, Warren. All of it made our stay unforgettably warm, heart touching and filling with good wibes. We walked through the Fenelon Falls, by the trail, got lost in an antique store, came into the nice Italian restaurant and spent the rest of the time watching the water. Warren and his team made everything to help us feel as comfort as it's possible. Spring is here. Summer is coming :) Both houses very well equipped, we found everything in a great condition, extremely clean and comfortable. Good beds and pillows, towels, enough kitchen stuff for 10 people, good furniture. Houses are warm, sunny and spacious. Easy to get to the town. The trail is in few steps from the cottage. Absolutely great stay!

Thanks Warren and Ron. We had a great stay. The main cottage is gorgeous with an awesome kitchen and lots of room to spread out. We made excellent use of the pool table. Walking distance into town was a bonus and those views of the sun coming up over the water can't be beat@

Great Place well maintained but owner was a stickler about noise levels.
We went as a family to this property for an anniversary. The place itself was beautiful and clean. When we got there, the driveway wasn't shoveled so i had to shovel it myself. Since we were there as a family for our anniversary, we were generally having a good time. We were hanging out inside the property until late and playing poker while listening to some music. I had gone outside the prperty to ensure that no noise was travelling outside as we were aware that the property was very close to others in the area and didn't want to be a disturbance to anyone around. That night i received a call from the owner of the property that the decibel levels ( yes, he had a monitor to measure the decibal levels INSIDE the house ) and exceeded the 75 limit that he had set and had done so for a couple of hours. I informed him that i went outside and no noise was traveling outside the house. The next day we saw the neighbours outside and they generally asked how we liked the place and if were enjoying our stay. They made no mention of any noise reaching them. The owner called me the next day to ask why we were "partying" until late. I told him that it was a family party and we were not being excessively noisy and that i had made sure to walk outside to check that we weren't bothering anyone. I told him that we aren't teens throwing a crazy party and trashing his place. He asked why we had an RV parked outside. I thought that it was an odd question..why would it matter if we travelled in an RV. Anyways long story short, he was a stickler about noise levels inside the house and mentioned a by-law of the city that doesn't permit noise levels above 75db. I informed him that the by-law applies to noise travelling outside the house and not in the house. Just for a reference, he had sent me a graph of our noise levels inside the house. When i looked at that graph, it was showing that at 11pm the following day when half the people weren't even in the house and we were just having lunch, the noise levels where crossing the 75db level. So with no music and just 5 of us there having lunch, we were apparently still breaking the 75db level he had set. I guess he doesn't expect his guests to talk at his property at all. All in all, a great weekend was made not so great by the owners constant petulence about the noise levels. Even though the property is listed to accomodate 10+ people, i would seriously only consider this property for a small group.

Great Family Vacation - definitely recommend!
The property was gorgeous and impeccably clean. Check-in was very smooth - Ron was wonderful! The kitchen was very well stocked and there was of room for our big family, including four very busy little kids. The neighbours are close-by which may sometimes be a downside, but they were incredibly friendly and even invited us to use some of their space and sports equipment for the kids! Warren was very attentive. Above all, it gave us a beautiful space to share our Dad's 75th with the whole family. We hope to be back soon.

Family Birthday Trip!
Warren's property was top notch and perfect for a large family. We are a family of 14 and there was still room to spare. Everything was very clean and neat and well thought of. The house is a fun and quirky layout but works perfect. The kitchens are fully stocked, beds were comfortable and the water area was perfect for swimming and bonfires. Warren's communications were clear and precise and he made us feel at home. We would definitely recommend this place to others in a heartbeat.

Lovely property but had some negatives
My family of 4 along with our extended family (a total of 10 people and 1 dog) stayed here for a week at the start of the summer. We happily spent more than we would normally for the perks of having 2 separate cottages, air conditioning and a gorgeous view of Sturgeon Lake. The water was beautiful and clean and calm. Even though we only had inflatables, all boats moving through the channel in front of the cottage were very conscious of the speed limit and slowed right down making us feel super safe swimming and floating in front of the cottage. Take note: The main house is very open concept and noise can easily be heard from the upstairs bedroom when the family is in the basement watching a movie. In the boathouse, the air conditioning is a wall unit which makes the bedroom pretty stuffy as the cool air from the A/C doesn't get circulated into it. Warren is very proud of his property and easy to contact and will respond to emails of phone calls quickly.

We had a lovely week - plenty of space between the two houses for my family of 13 plus 3 dogs! Fairly well equipped kitchen, but I would bring extra bath and hand towels if you go through a lot like my family. Stairs are beautiful but a little challenging if you have a baby or toddler in your arms. Short drive to some cute little towns.
