Description
We are a couple spending our summers at our Cottage on a lake in beautiful Kawartha’s Ontario. Our current project involves a complete renovation of the kitchen among other outdoor projects. Last summer we built a Garage with two very nice, cozy bedrooms with views of the lake, where you will stay while sharing meals and good times with us in the main Cottage. When we are not renovating there is lots to do including, hiking, kayaking, canoeing, stand up paddling, swimming, power boating, water skiing and tubing. Big Cedar lake is 4 km long, full of wild life and fun to explore. We are nature lovers and Grandma, who has written books on the history and wildlife of Canada is often here too. We are nature and wildlife lovers who spend time photographing the local water birds and wildlife.
