Star Gazer is an inviting and spacious cottage. It is luxurious in its open concept design and affords beautiful views of the water. The kitchen is roomy with an island and seating for 4, a convenient wet bar, and livingroom with comfortable seating throughout, even heated flooring for year round comfort. Pot lights provide lighting throughout the cottage and on the covered deck. Speakers on the deck and balcony allow you to enjoy your favourite music wherever you choose to relax. Create your individual comfort as each bedroom has its own thermostat, ensuite and view of the water. Spend time out of the sun on the covered wrap-around deck, or head to the waterfront to soak up some sun on the floating dock and the water patio, lots of seating for all. If you prefer to be on the water, take advantage of the kayaks and paddleboat or tie your own boat at the dock for access to the Trent-Severn Waterway and Bobcaygeon Lock 32, just across Nogies Creek Bay and Pigeon Lake. The waterfront has some reeds and weeds to the left, making dock fishing ideal for your little anglers. Visit the woodland next to the cottage, across the wooden stepping bridge, over the babbling brook to the home of chickadees, woodpeckers, deer and rabbits. At the end of the day, settle in at the fire pit – an excellent spot for spending time gazing at the stars, enjoying a campfire and roasting marshmallows.
