The space
🌲 Lakeside Living: A 3-Bedroom, 2-Bath Cottage in Minden Hills, Ontario

Experience the charm and beauty of Ontario’s Cottage Country.

Nestled on the serene shores of Gull Lake in Minden Hills, Ontario, this inviting three-bedroom, two-bath cottage blends rustic charm with modern comfort. A large wraparound deck welcomes you as the centerpiece of outdoor living, offering sweeping views of the surrounding forest.

On the main floor, the cottage features an open-concept lounge room and dining area filled with natural light, along with two bedrooms and one full bathroom. The walkout to the expansive deck makes this level perfect for entertaining or enjoying peaceful mornings with coffee as you take in the views of cottage country. The well-equipped kitchen and dining space overlook this deck—ideal for family meals or evenings spent under the stars.

Downstairs you will find one more bedroom and a full bathroom, along with a secondary lounge room and reading room. This level also offers direct access to the beautiful backyard.

In the evenings, gather around the outdoor firepit for marshmallows, stories, and the quiet crackle of a cottage-country night.

Whether you’re seeking a family getaway, a romantic escape, or a tranquil refuge, this Minden Hills cottage delivers an exceptional retreat—where every season is an invitation to make lasting memories.

- Gull Lake is a great lake for fishing/ice fishing, it is known for Walleye, Pike, Lake Trout, Perch, Burbot, Whitefish, and Bass.


❄️ Winter Travel Disclaimer & Guest Prep Tips

Travel to, from, and while at the cottage is at the guest’s own risk. During the winter months, road conditions in the Haliburton Highlands can be challenging, and all-wheel drive or 4x4 vehicles are mandatory for safe access.

Please be aware that driveways, decks, steps, and pathways may become slippery or snow-covered.

Guests are expected to use caution at all times. While snow removal is maintained as best as possible, the property owner and its representatives are not responsible for slips, falls, injuries, or accidents (including those resulting in death) related to winter travel or conditions.

That said, the cottage offers a truly magical winter experience — from cozy nights indoors to snow-covered trails and frozen lake adventures. With proper preparation, you’ll be able to enjoy all the beauty and activities the season has to offer.

To help you enjoy your winter getaway safely and comfortably, we recommend bringing:

• 🚙 AWD or 4x4 vehicle for navigating snowy/icy roads.
• 👢 Winter boots with good grip for outdoor areas.
• 🧣 Warm layers & outdoor gear for exploring.
• 🔦 Flashlights or headlamps (days are shorter in winter).
• 🥫 Extra food & essentials in case of heavy snowfall.
• 🪵 Firewood if you’d like to use the outdoor firepit (when safe).
