The Shire Cottage  |  Cottage in North Frontenac

This warm and cozy getaway isn't quite like anything else. A rustic wood cabin with a fairytale flair guarantees fun and relaxation on your next vacation.
Located in North Frontenac there is an abundance of lakes, forest, and trails to explore before coming home to a mug of hot chocolate in front of the fire.
This rental includes both available cabins on the property, you will never be sharing with another group. Danaview is larger and has the main living space, Kneehill has extra sleeping space and some overflow living space. Don't worry about packing sheets or towels, linens are included.
Danaview:
A wood stove provides warmth and a comfortable glow to the living room, with enough seating for all to gather. A hidden TV with chromecast works great for movie nights or rainy days.
The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and appliances for creating your own culinary masterpieces. The propane range features a convection oven and cast-iron griddle, with a variety of pots and pans available to meet your needs. Small appliances include a kitchenaid mixer, blender, food processor, rice cooker, slow cooker, coffee maker, and toaster oven. A dishwasher makes for cleanup quick. The dining room seats eight and is great for a board game marathon.
The blue bedroom in the tower has a queen bed with desk and dresser, as well as windows all around to give you the feeling of being in a treehouse. A balcony gives amazing views of the countryside - leave the patio door open at night in the summer to hear the call of loons as you fall asleep.
The green room has a huge window for sunlight, check out the stained glass detail! A double bed, bookcase with some toys for any junior adventurers, dresser, and night table are there for your comfort. A workspace is available if you need to get some work done with a keyboard/mouse, 24" monitor (HDMI), laptop stand, and hardwire or wifi connection to fast Starlink internet. The area has strong cell service for Koodo/Telus but is a dead zone for Rogers.
Kneehill:
This quirky five-sided cabin has an open living space with a small kitchen, eating space, and a Queen bed. A few steps down is the bunk room with two twin beds. Up the stairs is an open loft with a double/full bed. There is a full bathroom behind the eating area.
Outdoors features a propane BBQ close to the house and fire pit in the backyard. Relax on the back deck with a beverage listening to the breeze in the trees and watching birds at the feeder.
Just off Palmerston Lake, there is a boat launch space just a five minute walk down the road. Two public beaches on the lake are great for swimming. There's lots to do nearby - hiking, swimming, boating, ATV trails, art studios, and much more.
Accessibility:
The bed and bathroom in Kneehill cabin are on the main floor and require no stairs for access. The main floor of Danaview is also on ground level with just a short step from the driveway. If you have any questions on accessibility please send me a message.
Guest access
Guests have access to both the Danaview and Kneehill cabins. The smaller building (orange door) is being renovated and is not available.
This is not only a rental property, it is a place to gather with my own family and friends. You may find personal mementos spread around and some artwork from young family members adorning the walls. Make yourself at home, feel free to use a board game, borrow a book to read during your visit, and use any spices or other kitchen ingredients you find in the cabinets. I hope you will find the relaxation and coziness in this space that I do.
