Description

Tucked away on the point of Smiths Island, this off-grid cottage is more than a summer escape; it's a story waiting to continue. Set on 2.24 private acres with nearly 1,000 feet of shoreline, this rare property offers breathtaking panoramic views that shift with the light: sunrises over the quiet charm of Callander, and golden sunsets melting behind the Manitou Islands, lighting up the waters of Lake Nipissing. A short boat ride from the Callander Bay Government Dock brings you to your own piece of Northern Ontario paradise where the hum of traffic is replaced by birdsong, the haunting calls of loons echo across the bay, and bald eagles soar silently overhead. Some evenings, you might even glimpse the Chief Commanda as it slips past the backside of the island on a sunset cruise, a gentle reminder that beauty is all around you. Lovingly crafted by its current owners, the solid 750 sq-ft one-bedroom cottage blends timeless design with thoughtful touches. A spacious deck stretches toward the lake, the perfect perch for morning coffee or evening stargazing. An outbuilding with a composting toilet adds practical comfort while preserving the simplicity of the setting. Though completely off-grid, excellent cellular service keeps you connected whether it's for a spontaneous video call or working remotely with the best backdrop imaginable. In summer, the fishing is unbeatable and the boating endless. Come winter, snowmobilers carve across the frozen bay, and ice fishing shacks dot the lake like lanterns on a snowy plain. Whether you crave quiet solitude, a creative retreat, or a basecamp for four-season adventure, this one-of-a-kind cottage offers something truly rare: peace, perspective, and a front-row seat to the ever-changing theatre of the lake.
