The Mara Waterfront Cottage, Muskoka

Welcome to our enchanting Themed and Riverfront cottage in the heart of Port Sydney, nestled perfectly between Bracebridge and Huntsville in Muskoka!

Picture yourself waking up to the soothing sounds of a flowing river, the water visible and crystal clear even in the midst of a peak winter and snowfall that will take your breath away.

Step inside to discover three thoughtfully themed rooms, full kitchenette, river faced and a beautiful living and dining on the ground floor, each designed for your comfort and enjoyment. The entire cottage is adorned with wood-themed, charming decorations, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Privacy - Our hidden gem with a gated house offers a perfect blend of beauty and seclusion, despite being close to the main highway.

Entertainment - Near the fireplace, you have a perfect place to come together with family & friends to share memorable times together.

For real entertainment enthusiasts, head down to the basement, where a complete media and rec room awaits. Watch your favorite shows on the impressive 75-inch TV with a top-notch speaker system. Challenge your friends to a game of pool, air hockey, or try your hand at the classic dartboard. We've also got a variety of table games to keep the little ones entertained.
