Highlands East Cottage | Bright, Beautiful Year Round Cottage on Paudash Lake

3 Bedroom Cottage in Highlands East, Harcourt

Our family has recently purchased and renovated this cottage on Paudash Lake. Paudash is a beautiful lake located just south of Bancroft Ontario bordering the Kawarthas and Haliburton regions of Ontario's cottage country. The cottage is easy to get to from HWY 28 and is close to Bancroft or Apsley if you need groceries or an LCBO.
The cottage is great in all seasons. In the winter months, we are very close to some of the best snowmobile trails, hiking, and cross country skiing trails at Silent Lake Provincial Park. In the summer there is a marina on the lake if you are interested in renting a boat or water toys. We have a canoe, a paddleboard and 2 kayaks on the property for your use.
Our cottage has a new kitchen and each room has been newly decorated. The cottage is 2 stories high with cathedral ceilings in the living room and a screened outdoor sitting room so you can enjoy the amazing view of the lake. We are on a well and the water is very safe to drink and cook with. Sun exposure is east and we have the most beautiful sunrise views. Directly behind our cottage is a large park for throwing a ball or walking through the trails.
The main cottage has 3 bedrooms and sleeps 8 comfortably. All mattresses in the cottage are brand new and very comfortable for sleeping. All bedding is provided and of the finest quality.
Here is a breakdown of beds in the cottage:
Bedroom 1 (2nd floor)- 1 California king bed
Bedroom 2 (2nd floor) - 2 single beds + a bunk bed
Bedroom 3 (main floor)- 1 queen bed
Check-in is 4pm and check-out is 11am.
Paudash Lake is a wonderful place for a family vacation. We are very respectful of the lake, the environment and our neighbours. We are only looking for renters who will do the same. Please contact me (Kim) with any questions.
