Lake of Bays earns its name. Instead of one big basin, it is a tangle of long arms and deep bays, with about 167 km of shoreline wrapped around a lake of roughly 6,780 hectares. Read the full Lake of Bays guide.
Water access cottages usually cost less than road access cottages on the same lake and offer more privacy. In return you need a boat, a mainland parking spot and a place to land, and you carry in everything you use. Lenders and insurers treat them differently, so speak to both early.
