Welcome to an exceptional private cottage retreat on Skeleton Lake - 5.98 acres with 390 feet of shoreline on one of Muskoka's most coveted spring-fed lakes, known for its depth and clarity. Located approximately two hours north of Toronto and minutes from the towns of Port Carling, Rosseau, and Bracebridge, the lake offers full-service marina access and the kind of seclusion that is increasingly rare in the region. The property comprises three structures: a three-bedroom, two-bathroom cottage; a two-storey boathouse with two bedrooms, one bathroom, and two boat slips with lifts; and a one-bedroom bunkie. All three enjoy unobstructed big-water views across the lake for family and guests to enjoy. The waterfront is thoughtfully laid out with multiple docks, a dedicated swim dock, a sauna cabin, and upper and lower sitting areas off the boathouse. The entire property has been well maintained and is ready for immediate enjoyment.
