PROPERTY
GOLDFINCH LODGE - A True North Log home with the best sunsets on the Lake!

Star gaze or catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights from your sanctuary in the world’s first Dark Sky Reserve. Pine Lake is ideal for boating and water sports. Deep water off the dock (15ft) make perfect conditions for your best cannonball!
AREA
Nestled in the trees on the southern shores of Pine Lake, The Log House is only 12 minutes from the Muskoka Wharf Village in Gravenhurst. Enjoy the weekly Farmer's Market, boat tours, quaint shops in the village and weekly water-ski shows. Several top-ranked golf courses are less than an hours drive away. Come winter, groomed snow mobile trails can be found literally at the end of the driveway! Jack and Stella’s in Bala (a 40 minute drive) offers a coffee and pastry bar with dock and garden seating overlooking Bala Bay, plus one of a kind fashion, arts and crafts and housewares! Another great find is Lakeside Bala for fine dining right on the water.

"The Perfect Setting"
We absolutely loved our time at Goldfinch Cottage. It was a perfect setting for two families with small children. The cottage was clean, and well appointed. The rooms were well-sized, and decorated with a classic Muskoka touch that really made it feel like a cottage vacation. The dock and lake access was a delight and the hot tub really helped when the lake was a might too chilly! The amenities at the cottage were well-suited for young children and their parents. Thank you Jayne's!
