Hardly a cottage. More like a country home with some acreage and a distant view of the lake. C’mon TL it can’t be that hard to fill this spot each week!
Where’s the pool?
How much for just the coach house?
And again with the not actually a cottage. I agree with McDuck, how hard can it be to find a real cottage to feature?
Uh, this ain’t a cottage.
I have to say I agree with the others, just because it is in Collingwood, doesn’t make it a cottage.
I too would love to see a real cottage at a price that I could maybe afford one day……….under $500,000 maybe? (Couldn’t afford that either mind you!!)
I know it is Collingwood and people go their to ski but things have changed with all the golf courses and hiking trails and cyclists!!
I agree with Chalbe.
This place needs a pool. 45 acres of beautiful landscape and views and no pool for the summer months.
Beautiful place though!
