Dorset gem! Private, pretty .64 acre lot with 155' of natural shoreline on gorgeous Shoe Lake. Adorable 2bdrm/1bath pine lined 1950's traditional cottage has been well loved and exudes true cottage charm. Special & enjoyable in all 3 seasons: Savour the Algonquin feel & lake views from the screened porch extending across the entire front of the cottage in spring while you welcome back the call of the loon; Spend lazy summer days diving from the dock into the pristine, clear waters or paddling the rocky, peaceful shores. Fish for lake trout or bass, nap in the fabulous lakeside dry boathouse, bbq, or just hangout in the cottage kept cool by the towering hemlocks. Cozy up by the wood stove in fall after enjoying miles of trails easily accessed on the Crown Land across the road or stream a movie via highspeed internet. Portage into Blue Chalk Lk or climb the Dorset tower to take in the fall colours. Enjoy serene, starry nights around the firepit & magical sunrises over the water in all seasons. Proximity to the village of Dorset (5 minutes) is a huge bonus: ice cream, restaurants, incredible pizza, LCBO, Health Hub, gas, community centre, gym & more + Robinson's General Store has it all! Access is via year round municipally maintained dead end road. Cottage comes turnkey & has had some great improvements: new roof 2023, floors 2023, steps/ landscaping 2024, HWT 2025, new woodshed, updated bathroom, dock, water system (including UV filter), plumbing, & new exterior paint & leafless gutters 2024. Shoe Lk is a quiet spring fed, Algonquin style lake with smooth granite, towering pines/mixed forest & fewer than 25 cottages. It is large enough for tubing/waterskiing/landing a float plane and ideal for paddling/swimming/fishing. Wildlife abounds in the area. ATV/ snowmobile trails right off Shoe Lk Rd. Slow down, make great memories & experience real Muskoka style cottaging at this appealing offering. (id:45839)
