Fully Renovated Cottage with tasteful, clean interior furnishings. Spacious and open concept for gatherings with family and friends. Setting is very private and safe with lots of room to play with the kids or throw the ball to the dog. Excellent level ground for young children. 10 minute walk to beautiful Kawagama Lake or 2 minute drive to Herb lake for great swimming and canoeing. Huge fire pit for that evening gathering. Sandy area with Volleyball/Badminton net. Satellite tv and Wifi. Climb the Dorset Fire Tower. This property has 4 manicured acres of level ground for the kids to run around in full view. Parents can relax and know the children are safe with no hazards. Out back is your own private mountain to climb and explore. The view of the stars is simply amazing.

We also have one security camera on the shop that faces out the driveway.
The property is well maintained. The house is much larger than it looks from the exterior. The principal bedroom with on suite bathroom is in it’s own ‘wing’ so we didn’t hear anything from the late night crew. It just feels like a home away from home. I recommend it to any and all.
Beautiful property with lots of room for 5 adults, 1 teenager and 3 small dogs. Great location, close to many hiking trails. Owner provided trail maps and brochures of things to do around the area. Rooms were clean, kitchen was fully equipped, beds were comfortable with hygenic covers on the mattresses. Water is not drinkable from the tap, but the owner provided jugs of water for the water cooler, so we had no issues. No lake access directly from the cottage but access points are close. I would highly recommend this property and this host.
We had a great time! Our annual ATV trip included 6 adults (6 ATV’s) lots of parking. Trails we’re great! But we were blown away with our accommodations. It was clean and were surprised at how much room there was for all of us. Shireen is great! Responds to any questions you may have and makes you feel welcome. Thank you Shireen!
The cottage is impeccably maintained. Plenty of room for our party of six adults. The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need to prepare meals for the whole family. Close proximity to lake access for canoeing and kayaking. We also enjoyed some of hikes in the area and climbed the Dorset Tower. A great get away all around. We highly recommend this property!
Shireen was a fantastic host,always available for questions. The property is fantastic and well groomed,great for kids with multiple play items to keep them entertained.The interior is very attractive and has everything you’ll need for a great vacation.We were completely satisfied with the entire property and hope to come back again!!

Spent 4 days here with 7 people. Lots of space even when you want to be alone for some quiet time. Kitchen and dining area is open and perfect for a large group and game nights. Large propane BBQ on the front porch and a huge firepit in the backyard. I would most definitely come back for another trip!
This cottage was better than what we had expected. Very clean, well laid out, comfortable and well equipped. Would definitely recommend. The only thing was the mosquitos which I knew would be bad in June. Obviously that cannot be helped, just wanted to mention to folks who may not know this area in Northern Ontario.
My family and I had a great time here. Shireen is so considerate. The pack n play and high chair came in handy. Great place if you have little kids. They even had a small playroom. Big outdoor space and lovely sunroom.
Very nice cottage with lots of room. Great value for the price
First and foremost, Shireen was absolutely amazing to work with. She's thoughtful, quick to reply and very helpful with any questions that need answering. Shireen's cottage was spacious, clean and private. Truly a special place. Thanks for making our visit memorable Shireen!
We loved the position and location of the cottage and were so pleased to see how much space and facilities there were making it feel like we were right at home.
Was a very nice cabin. Comfortable for 8. Enjoyed a wonderful week with kids and grandkids. Granddaughter learned to ride a two wheel bike. Great memories. Aug 2022
Our stay at Shireen's cottage was amazing. The cottage was situated on a large property surrounded by tall trees. The trees offered plenty of privacy. A few minutes away from the cottage was Kawagama Lake. We took the canoe and life jackets from the Bunkie and paddled out into the lake. The lake was tranquil and the view was absolutely stunning. Bicycles were also available, but we didn’t have time to use them. Inside the cottage, it was very clean, spacious and well decorated. Although we were 2 families of 4 adults and 4 kids, we never felt crowded. Everything we needed was provided at the cottage. We were pleasantly surprised to find a water dispenser in the kitchen. Coming from the city, we prefer to drink bottled than well water. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware and utensils. Shireen was an awesome host. She was very kind, patient, and helpful with answering all my questions. I will be recommending Shireen’s cottage to my family and friends. I look forward to staying here again.
Shireen’s place was a lovely place to stay with family - clean and spacious with all the amenities you could need. The location was excellent for day trips to Algonquin and was near amenities in Dorset. Shireen was an excellent host and replied very quickly to messages and made sure we had a comfortable stay.
Wonderful stay at this cottage! Even better than the pictures and Shireen is a lovely host! The furnished screened in room was our favourite part with great views of the forest. Don't hesitate to book
Great experience. Beautiful property, the pictures do not do it justice. Spacious, was perfect for our 2 family getaway. Huge outdoor space, which our pug loved lounging around. And Shireen is a dream host. Quick responses and even checked in to make sure our stay went well. Will highly recommend and can't wait to come back!!
