4 Bedroom Cottage in Tweed, Gilmour

FIVE STAR EXPERIENCE NOW BOOKING FOR 2025!
Retreat to this lovely, spacious, unique stone cottage set in 5 quiet acres of woods, its dock on 2.5 km-long, spring-fed lake with herons, beavers, muskrats, otters, loons, elk and a lively group of vultures! The lodging is on the Monarch route, and is an amphibian haven, where other wildlife frequent.
This beautiful four-season chalet has all the modern considerations: dehumidifier, central air/heat pump, central vac, food fridge, beverage fridge, 2 double kitchen sinks, washer/dryer, wall oven (includes convection option), microwave, bread machine, waffle maker, stand mixer, air fryer. Indoors, there is both a handy wood stove and a beautiful fireplace with an insert and fan to circulate heat or cooling. Outdoors, there's a sunken potash kettle fire pit. Substantial outdoor seating is provided for the various areas, and on the covered porch there's a bbq (and, additionally, a smoker for aficionados!)
For anglers, the lake has rock and largemouth bass, perch, brown bullhead, pumpkinseed.
For indoor bonding, a plethora of games, dvds and puzzles will suit most tastes. Fairly extensive, eclectic library. Netflix.
Adventurous, determined sorts (with kayaks or canoes!) may venture up the beaver dam terraces at one end of the lake which leads to a small sister lake. Others may choose to swim Wadsworth's breadth to a lovely rock point (we recommend taking a spotter along in the pedal boat for safety).
2400 square feet. Sleeps 8. 3+1 bdm, as the main floor den has twin bed accommodation. The ground floor bedroom (queen-sized bed) combined with main floor bathroom makes this listing comfortable for those with minor mobility issues. The den is quite soundproof from the main house, suitable for isolating later/earlier activities, or light/late sleepers. Upstairs, one bedroom has a king-sized bed, the other has a queen-sized bed. In addition to air conditioning, all bedrooms and common areas have ceiling fans.
Wonderful, drinkable well water gushes from every tap, so the property is completely safe for children; this water is tested regularly, and has never failed. Please protect our environment; we encourage our guests to avoid using plastic water bottles.
Wadsworth Lake is a limestone-based lake, resulting in excellent water quality. A public boat launch is located on the south end of the lake just off Weslemkoon Lake Road.
Internet connection is via Starlink.
Absolutely NO PETS.
In these uncertain times, we are committed to the safety of our guests. Paul's Folly will be thoroughly cleaned and unoccupied for 24+ hours between bookings.
NB: Please be aware that sometimes the rate is quoted in US Dollars. Please place a tentative booking to see the full details in Canadian dollars.

Summary: We enjoyed the spacious modern home. It slept all 6 of us comfortably and there was a lot of space inside and outside to chill out. We appreciated the many modern appliances. The access to the dock at the lake was close even with a steep walk. Lake water very refreshing. We had a few nights outside roasting sausages, hot dogs and s’mores with the nice sized fire pit with firewood provided. We took advantage of the St Ola store close by and going to Bancroft 25 mins away. Enjoyed the Bancroft shops, galleries and brewery. Eagles Roost was a nice hike in woods. Decent golfing at Marvel Rapids and West Highlands. Loved the Kiwartha Dairy even with half hour drive. Eagles roost was a nice stroll to various lookouts.We really enjoyed every minute of our time there.
