Description ↑↓
Nestled amongst the native wildflowers on a half-acre of well-treed land, this 1,300 sq. ft., split level, 3 bedroom cottage sits on 110 ft of natural shoreline. Soak in the panoramic views of undisturbed and undeveloped waterfront that make Ahmic Lake a rare gem. From the cottage, deck, sandy beach or dock you will find only moderate development, minimal boat traffic, and pristine water. Situated on a well-maintained, gently sloping lot, this cottage offers stunning scenery and wildlife viewing opportunities. The shoreline is shallow with hard-packed sand and a small sandy beach in-between two docks, ideal for children to safely splash and play, while the end of dock has water deep enough to jump in!
The interior of the cottage exudes a classic charm and warmth, with beautiful views of the lake from the open concept kitchen, living, dining and primary bedroom. The upper level features the kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom, with just a few stairs to the lower level. There, you'll find the primary bedroom, open concept living/dining area and walk-out to the deck. Be sure to take out one of the kayaks to explore the unspoiled scenery. Cozy up in front of the woodstove with a good book, enjoy your meals in the gazebo, or relax on the dock while the kids spend their days in the water. With western exposure, you'll enjoy hours of fun in the sun during the day, and the opportunity to take in epic sunsets and stargazing at night.
If you're looking for a place to unplug, reconnect with your loved ones and immerse yourself in nature's splendor, this cottage promises to deliver an unforgettable vacation.Ahmic Lake is popular for fishing, swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and sailing.

What a fabulous cottage. We have had a great week in such a beautiful spot. The kids loved learning to kayak and play croquet and really enjoyed Old Man's Creek. Thank you so much for your hospitality. We feel you really went above and beyond to make our stay a memorable one! Definitely the best sunset we have seen in a long time, we hope to be back some day. Thanks again.
Thank you so much for opening up this cottage to us. We had a very enjoyable and relaxing week. The beach area was perfect for our kids to splash around in and learn to swim. We also loved sitting in the gazebo to have our meals - such a perfect view of the lake. Thanks so much for your hospitality!
