Sunny Shores in brief

Sunny Shores is a newly updated three-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage on Star Lake in Seguin, about 21 minutes from Rosseau, 35 from Parry Sound and 2 hours 55 minutes from Toronto. It sleeps 8 on an acre of land, with a groomed sand beach and a shallow sandy entry, a dock, a canoe, an aluminum boat, two stand-up paddle boards, a water lily pad, a fire pit, a propane BBQ and a wood-burning stove. No pets.

A beach worth the drive

Sand beaches are less common on the rocky shores of this district. Sunny Shores has its own: a groomed sand beach on Star Lake in Seguin, set on an acre of land, with a shallow sandy entry that stays shallow, about two feet deep at the end of the dock. For families with small children it is close to ideal; for anyone hoping to dive, it is a wading beach, not a diving one.

The cottage has been newly updated, with an open, bright great room under a vaulted ceiling, lake views, a TV and a wood-burning stove for cool evenings; bring your own firewood. The newer kitchen is fully equipped and the dining table seats eight.

Three bedrooms, eight guests

The primary bedroom has a king bed under a vaulted ceiling. The second has a queen. The third is a bunk room with a twin-over-double bunk and a separate double. There is one three-piece bathroom with a standalone shower, which is worth knowing for a group of eight.

On the water

The waterfront faces southwest, so the beach gets sun all day and the sunsets land straight on the deck. A canoe, an aluminum boat (no motor), two stand-up paddle boards and a water lily pad are included, and the fishing off the dock is good. The lakeside deck has seating and a propane BBQ, and the fire pit on the lawn is the place for stars and marshmallows.
