The Granite Hill Cottage is a cozy rail workers’ home that has been lovingly transformed into a couple's retreat. It includes a private hot tub, massage area, & workspace with wifi. Across the road from The Cove Marina with boat launch, this is a friendly spot to explore all of Muskoka. Minutes from towns of Port Carling & Minett, for fine dining, local grocers, LCBO, golf, spas, beaches & marinas. The GHC is for train lovers - there is a rail line close by and trains pass and blow their horn. The GHC is a former railway workers’ home nestled on a granite ridge. 'The Cove' Marina on Lake Joseph is approx. 800m across Highway 169. In the summer it offers lake access, a boat launch, Shaw's Ice Cream Shop, patio, and a small convenience store. (Bringing a boat? Read below). The Good The GHC has been reimagined and renovated in a rustic and modern Canadiana style, with new kitchen, new bath, new acacia wood floors, and woodsy finishings. The main living area is open plan with kitchen, dining and living areas, outfitted with a leather sofa, electric fireplace, new 50" TV, streaming video, and a small desk for working. Down the hall you'll find the primary bedroom with a dresser, and the bonus massage area with a massage table and fresh linens. The Muskoka room in the back is a 3-season room which overlooks the granite outcroppings at the back of the property and allows access to the hot tub, the backyard, BBQ and fire pit areas. The landscape around the GHC is wrapped in the wonders of Muskoka - a series of beautiful granite outcroppings, ancient lichens, succulents and the evergreens that are iconic in the Muskoka Lakes area. Guests are invited to make a bonfire in the firepit. Hot Tub Use You will have exclusive and private use of the hot tub. We ask all guests to agree to the hot tub rules and hot tub waiver as a condition of booking a stay. These can be found in the house rules. Bringing Your Boat For guests interested in bringing their boat to launch on Lake Joseph please visit The Cove Marina's website for details. The marina has a dock and public boat launch. The Not-As-Good The GHC is best suited for train lovers - as there is an active rail line close by and trains are required to blow their horn. Also, the old-fashioned signs with black bears being in Muskoka are telling the truth - please be mindful that we are sharing this area with wildlife. We ask that you keep any food waste indoors, and remove your trash when you leave to prevent our friend Bruce the Bear from coming around and scaring everyone and himself. Lastly, there is a fixer upper within view next door as it is a residential area.
The cottage was beautiful. It is set up really well. The hot tub was nice but a bit of a hassle to set up and make sure everything is working to stay in for 15 minutes. Did not impact the stay at all, we still had a great time. The trains were also not bothersome at all. Didnt keep us up and didn't wake us up either. Overall would stay again. Thanks Jeffery!
We came to Granite Hill looking for a change of pace and loved the space. All the furnishings and appliances were really well thought out and worked great. It's a touch outside the main areas of Muskoka which was a nice change of pace. The backyard privacy was great with the hot tub and the fire pit.
My stay at Jeffery's place was incredible. It was quiet, secluded, peaceful and nice. It was a trip my fiancee and I took for our anniversary to getaway and relax from the stress of planning a wedding. The Amenties were perfect, the hottub and the massage table were the perfect touches to relax. The kitchen made it very nice and easy to cook meals and a special anniversary dinner. The place was very clean, very modern, extremely nice and a wonderful place to stay. There were spider webs in many areas of the bedroom which is expected but would be better if they were cleaned prior to our arrival. Hot tub was amazing, the provided massage oil was helpful, the shower was very nice as well. I had a great time at Jefferys place. I hope the price doesnt go up too much in the future as I would love to stay here again. Thanks for the hospitality Jeff
We absolutely loved our stay! This was the perfect spot to have a much needed little Muskoka getaway. Close to many great towns, peaceful and the home itself was absolutely lovely. The instructions were really clear, the kitchen had everything we needed and most importantly (in my opinion) the hot tub was perfect. Like the description says, you can hear a train but it wasn’t often and it wasn’t too loud—much preferable to the sirens we often hear living downtown in the city. We would book here again in a heartbeat and you won’t regret your stay!
The cottage is on a small residential street that is a very short distance from the Cove Marina in Foot's Bay.
There are numerous access points to Lake Joseph, Lake Muskoka and Stewart Lake within a short car ride (5-15 mins) from the cottage. Lake Muskoka is accessible at Port Carling, which is 12 mins away.
The GHC borders the beautiful Oviinbyrd Golf Club, ranked 9th best golf club in Canada by the Golf Club Gurus, so if you play the sport, you might want to check it out.
