264 BOY SCOUTS ROAD (X13717214)
$1,950,000About the Property
The distant call of a loon across calm water is your morning alarm, while the hum of an outboard motor out on the lake signals the start of the day. Set across over two acres of rolling, usable grounds facing due west, this property turns classic cottage lifestyle into a four-season habit.The shoreline yields to deep, weed-free water right off the dock-ideal for morning laps, firing up the ski boat for early glass-water runs, or taking late-day cannonballs as the sun turns the sky to amber. Landscaped lawns accommodate lawn games, flanked by a custom pond and trickling waterfall where local blue herons occasionally drop in.Come winter, the landscape shifts gears. Direct access to nearby OFSC snowmobile trails lets you fire up the sleds right from your driveway, while white-tailed deer regularly drift through the tree line.Inside, warmth takes over. Unwind in the 4-season Muskoka room after a day on the boat, or retreat to the indoor steam room after a frosty afternoon on the trail. A stone hearth anchors chilly evenings with the crackle of burning hardwood.Accessed via a private, year-round maintained road, you are eight minutes from downtown Burk's Falls for supplies and butter tarts. High-speed internet handles work commitments with ease, though keeping your eyes on a screen while eagles soar over the bay takes discipline.Shoreline is owned, four-season adventure is built-in, and the tranquility is guaranteed. Trade the pavement for the pines. (id:46976)

Almaguin Highlands
Situated at the northern tip of cottage country, the Almaguin Highlands is located about 20 minutes north of Muskoka and is every bit as spectacular as its more famous southern neighbour. West of Algonquin Park, this region is a dream come true for outdoor enthusiasts and bird-watching nature lovers alike. Choose from among hundreds of clean lakes and rivers to enjoy a refreshing summer swim. The Almaguin Highlands is home to Lake Bernard, the largest freshwater lake in North America without an island. Green, cool and inviting in the summer, the forests become winter wonderlands.
This northern region of Ontario showcases the majestic landscape of the Canadian Shield: wide-open spaces of woodlands, and rocky crags.
Explore the wild beauty of the Park-to-Park Trail that runs from Algonquin Park to the Parry Sound coastal region of Georgian Bay or enjoy the beautiful Magnetawan River and historic villages with shops and dining. This charming area is full of talented artists and craftspeople who welcome guests into their studios and galleries.
The incredibly wide selection of Trans Canada Trails is a significant feature of the Almaguin Highlands. These multi-use trails allow you to hike, bike, cross country ski, snowshoe, snowmobile, or horseback ride through quiet towns and across historic voyageur trade routes. The trails range from 30-minute relaxed hikes to longer, more challenging trails up to 30 kilometers.
