Tranquility on Chandos is a renovated & upgraded 2600 sq ft cottage. The cottage has a northern exposure, with 170’ shoreline tucked in a quiet bay/cove that provides privacy and stunning views of the lake from both the inside & outside on the wrap around deck or from the large dock enjoying the beauty of the water with plenty of Muskoka chairs to lounge on. All cottage windows were replaced fall 2019 and the big bay window that looks out on to the lake provides a view that one will always remember. The incredible views of the surrounding pines and balsams provides an atmosphere that will leave you in a state of, yes, TRANQUILITY. Or just enjoy your coffee or beverage on the deck & let the loons call you down to the water.

The cottage comes equipped with a spacious kitchen adjacent to a large family and dining area that can seat up to ten or you might choose to relax in the living room on the long large leather sectional with a cathedral ceiling overhead & bay windows that allow for stunning views of nature including the beautiful Chandos Lake.

When outdoors one can languish on the wrap around deck with beautifully appointed couches and chairs. Water activities include great swimming, fishing, boating and kayaking. If you prefer venturing further on land, there is an excellent cottage road for walking and biking. This beautiful property is the place for making your cottage memories on one of Kawartha’s largest and finest lakes.

This cottage also has a GENERAC Back-Up Generator that can power the entire cottage, which means you will never be without power.

TESTIMONIALS

Cottage fit are family perfectly. We had everything we needed . The lake was amazing and the outdoor areas were great including sandbox for little ones. We rented a boat for water skiing for the week. – Dave F (June 2021)

 

Tranquility on Chandos was stunning ! The cottage , the views. The minute you walked in there was an amazing smell ! It was super clean, stocked with items we weren’t sure were included but we had brought. Everything gleamed ! Thank you John and Ann Marie for the use of your beautiful home . You were amazing hosts, answered a few questions immediately and made us feel so welcome. —Elaine P. (Sept 2020)

 

Beautiful cottage! Very spacious and perfect spot to host some of our family and friends. Nice quiet bay and large dock to enjoy. Large sandbox for the kids to play in and a fire-pit for the evening. Only drawback was the fire-pit is positioned on a hill, so not comfortable to sit there too long (owners are on top of it and mentioned they are moving it for next year). Owners were the best I have ever rented from! Very accommodating and responsive to any questions. Would highly recommend the property if you’re looking for peaceful and relaxing cottage vacation! —Brian G. (July 2020)
