    Beautiful stay!

    This was a beautiful cottage. I couldn’t have asked for a better weekend. The cottage was clean and spacious. It felt like we were on our own private island it was so peaceful. The cottage had everything. My family and I created the best memories here. We are so happy, can’t wait to come back.

    Quiet Lake Getaway!

    Overall, this was a very well-appointed cottage. Surprising how many amenities were provided (e.g., toilet paper, spices, hand soap, etc…). The cottage itself was huge and even on the rainy day, we (all 11 of us and a dog) did not feel cramped in any way. The kids loved the ping pong and foosball. There were plenty of board games, card and soooo many books and magazines. It felt like we were staying in a friend’s cottage with all the personal touches. The kayaks and canoes were great and were used daily. Fishing from the dock was fun and many fish were caught (and released). The only issue with the water area we had was the shallowness and many trees logs in the water near the dock did not allow actual jumping or swimming near the cottage. The kids went out into more open water to swim. People with young children shouldn’t have that issue though as the beach area was nice with a nice shallow entry for little ones. The cottage was in a private area with neighbours a good distance away. However, it was close (10 min) drive to MacTier for groceries or a bit further into Perry Sound. We all had a very enjoyable stay at Winsome Silver Lake!

    PERFECT COTTAGE!

    Amazing getaway with the family! Getting our large family together is always a special occasion, but enjoying it at Winsome Silver Lake was special. The cottage is beautiful, spectacular, and very well equipped. The cottage was extremely clean and had everything you could possible need. The high ceiling and big windows made the view of the lake be appreciated by all. Overall, amazing place and team. They went above and beyond to make our stay perfect and memorable. We’ll definitely be back again!!

    Photos do not do it justice!

    I had a great stay and I would absolutely recommend this place. The space is gorgeous – photos do not do it justice, extremely clean and spacious. Our family of 8 adults, 1 large dog and a toddler fit perfectly. Tons of things included. Though it is encouraged to bring your own items, the cottage did have some things so if you forgot anything, chances are they would have had it for you to use anyway. It is obvious that lots of love goes into this space and there were several thoughtful touches. We would absolutely go back to this cottage again. Thank you for a great Family Day weekend away!

    So many activities at this cottage! Had the best time here!

    It’s a really beautiful cottage for a large group of friends or family. The living room is unique and stylishly decorated with high ceiling. We have much space and many choices of activities that are provided in the cottage, including foosball, pingpong, BBQ, kayaks and canoes. Also, we enjoy the breathtakingly beautiful view of lake. And it’s better to arrive at the place before getting dark, otherwise it’s hard to figure out the way.

    Wonderful Muskoka experience!!

    “This is a great place for a family vacation. The cottage is stylishly decorated and has a lot of space. The internet connection is slow, but it gives you an opportunity to have a digital detox ( which I personally really enjoyed). The surrounding area is breathtakingly beautiful- it’s a real Muskoka experience!”

    What a beautiful gem!!!

    winsome is a beautiful gem. I have been to 10 different cottages in Ontario and Quebec and this is by far the most majestic. the cottage is built next to a wall of natural granite rock. the stair case leading to the cottage is carved from the rock. at the base of the wall the is a goldfish pool made from a natural stream. frogs like to hangout there too. inside the view of the sunrise from the Cathedral ceiling Hall is spiritual and therapeutic there are two 3 person canoes and two sit top kayaks in excellent condition the internet was flaky and we restarted the router a few times to get it working and that seemed to work for a while. make sure to be prepared for Internet withdrawal symptoms of your group 🙂 the basement is fully furnished. it has foosball, pingpong, darts, air hockey a severe thunderstorm hit the area during our stay and power lines were cut. everything in the house including tap water requires electricity so were worried. fortunately the power came on within 4 hours

    Great Family Place!

    Great family place to stay the accommodations were clean and there was lots of space for kids to play. The lake was nice the only issue we had was the water level was high because of all the rain, which meant part of the dock was below water when we stepped on it.

    Silver Lake

    I went to the Silver Lake Retreat cottage with the family for a weekend and what an amazing experience we had. This cottage has everything you want, beautiful architecture, an amazing location, fascinating scenery and is very well equipped with canoes, games, fishing supplies and more. The host replied to all my messages quickly which really facilitated the communication. I really recommend this place for big family multigathering who wish to have real quality time.

     A fabulous stay in a wonderful property!

    A fabulous stay in a wonderful property. Ross was excellent at providing feedback, and all the necessary details on how to find the property and gain entry. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Silver Lake Retreat. The instructions to find the house were very easy to follow and it was easy to find our way around the house. A nice letter welcoming us to the property was left, which also explained how to find things around the house and some hints and tips etc., The kitchen is extremely well equipped, with all utensils and cooking appliances that you could ever need. There is also good entertainment options within the lodge, including wifi if you need to go online. The views from the upper floor kitchen and living were utterly spectacular and seeing the various photographs of the construction of the property left you appreciating just how much work had gone into its construction. Our sons loved the basement come games room which was a great place for them to retreat to. I would happily stay again. The tranquility and views of the Silver Lake Retreat was amazing. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could ever need.
