Located on the Trent Severn Waterway, Tuscany Place is a private four season cottage perfect for your family vacation. This charming and spacious cottage offers all the comforts of home including air conditioning for those hot, humid days and cozy warmth relaxing in front of the family room fireplace after a day of snowmobiling. Kick back over your morning coffee or an afternoon glass of wine and luxuriate in the picturesque view of the lake from the full length deck or down on the dock by the water. The pebbled beach with the wade-in swim area is perfect for kids and the whole family. The lake is great for swimming or fishing. Try something different and bake outdoors in the woodfired pizza oven – good for pizza, lasagna, panzerotti or whatever takes your fancy. For evening relaxation, enjoy spectacular sunsets while relaxing on the dock, or settle in at the fire pit close by the water – an excellent spot for spending family time under the stars, enjoying a campfire and roasting marshmallows.

TESTIMONIALS

The cottage was very clean, and the kitchen is well equipped. It’s spacious, so there’s lots of room to spread out and relax comfortably inside. Outside, the lawn and deck areas are attractive and comfortable with lots of seating. West facing sunsets are lovely. The proximity to Lindsay makes shopping trips quick and easy. —Pat K. (Aug 2021)

We had a great experience at Tuscany Place. The owners provided all the info we needed so it was super easy to “check in” and “check out”. The cottage and location was absolutely beautiful; we had amazing weather and really enjoyed the lake. Everything you need for a weekend away was provided and our group loved it. We’ve already talked about coming back next summer for a longer stay. Our deposit was returned the day we left, too. Thank you again for a wonderful weekend. —Kendal B. (Sept. 2020)

The place was lovely and delivered on its promise. —Kristin L. (July 2020)

We enjoyed our cottage week at Tuscany Place on Sturgeon Lake. You have a very beautiful place and we would highly recommend it. The cool evenings with a breeze was enough to sleep. Loved the pizza oven. The fishing off the dock was great and we all had fun. The daily visits of ducks was entertaining and nice to see them eating the seaweed on the shore and we had the opportunity to teach the boys about natural habitats. —Velvet B. (July 2020)
