Muskoka Areas
Lake of Bays
Lake of BaysThe biggest lake, the quieter shoreLake of Bays is the largest lake in Muskoka by surface area, and it feels it — long fetches, big skies, and shoreline that stays wooded and quiet. Dorset and Baysville anchor the east side, and the lake draws people who want the water without the scene.
Cottages here lean classic: sunset exposure on the western shores, sandy entries in the protected bays, and room between neighbours that the southern lakes rarely offer anymore.

Some places you visit. Others you arrive at. The moment you pass the stone columns & timber-frame entrance at 1563 South Portage Road, you feel it: this is a custom Lake of Bays Lake House built to be lived in, loved & remembered. Luxurious, never ostentatious.Morning begins with sunrise pouring through two storeys of floor-to-ceiling glass, lighting up a wide panoramic sweep of open water. Coffee in hand on the deck off your main-floor primary suite. The house is still quiet.By midday everyone is at the water. A gentle slope leads past perennial gardens to your hard-packed sandy shoreline, clean & weed-free underfoot, with a like-new single-slip boathouse. Mature trees wrap 1.33 acres in privacy that feels far greater than the frontage suggests. Thanks to the topography, sun lingers on the dock until after 7 p.m. in summer, so the last swim of the day is often the best one.As evening settles in, friends gather on the main level stone terrace, retractable screens down and the fireplace glowing. Later the stories move inside to the great room, where a commanding stone fireplace rises beneath soaring ceilings. A billiard game is under way, the children enjoy a movie on the retractable theatre screen in the walkout lower level family room and music flows through every room.With over 7,000 sq. ft., 7 bedrooms & 7 bathrooms, everyone has their place: a main-floor guest suite with ensuite, three spacious lower-level bedrooms where kids & cousins can spread out, plus a private two-bedroom retreat above the insulated oversized three-car garage. Heated floors, dual furnaces & A/C, a backup generator & fibre internet being installed make it as inviting in January as in July. Offered turnkey & fully furnished.Year-round municipal road access, under 10 minutes to Dwight, 15 to Huntsville & 10 to golf at Deerhurst and ClubLink’s Mark O’Meara course. A rare South Portage offering, ready for your family’s next chapter in Muskoka. This is one to feel in person. More detailsListed by Royal LePage Lakes Of Muskoka Realty- ANDREW JOHN COCKS

Lake of Bays at its best, and a rare chance to build it exactly the way you want! This is a point of land on the coveted south shore with 566 feet of frontage and a full westerly exposure, which means some of the most beautiful sunsets you will find anywhere on the lake.The shoreline is a perfect balance – hard-packed sand and shallow water on one side for children to play, and deep water off the point for diving, swimming and boating. Between them sit 1.93 acres of level, treed ground under tall white pines, open and flat enough to build on comfortably and private enough that you won’t be looking at anybody.A good deal of that privacy comes from the land itself. The shore road allowance in front of the property has been closed and conveyed, so this land runs right down to the water’s edge in your name – something most owners on this lake cannot say. Along the northerly boundary there is a 66-foot concession road allowance, which adds a generous margin of separation on that side.You are close to the Lake of Bays Tennis Club, the Sailing Club and Bigwin Island Golf Club, with excellent cycling, hiking and cross-country skiing all around. Baysville and Dorset are both an easy run for groceries, the LCBO and dinner, and both Bracebridge and Huntsville are about thirty minutes away for everything else. Roughly two and a quarter hours from the GTA.A complete documentary package, including survey and planning materials, is available for review before you write an offer.Sunsets, a sand beach, deep water and level ground to build on, all on a point of land on the south shore. That combination does not come along often. More detailsListed by Sotheby’s International Realty Canada- ANDREW JOHN COCKS
