Cottage of the Week: $3.3 million for a private island on Lake Muskoka

Bragging Rights: Watch eyes widen as you airily drop the phrase “private island” into conversations about weekend plans.

Big Selling Point: The property has an outdoor deck for every activity. The dock in front of the main cottage has an outdoor kitchen and a dining table, while the boathouse roof is a prime tanning location. The bunkie’s wraparound veranda is best suited for sundowner cocktails and quiet contemplation.

Possible Deal Breaker: Though the island only a two-minute journey from the landing, you need a boat to get there.

By The Numbers: • $3,295,000 • $12,000 in property taxes • 4 bedrooms • 3 bathrooms • 3 buildings • 3 docks for tanning • 2-door boat house • 1.15 acres of land • 1 outdoor kitchen • 1 waterside bunkie • 1 canoe chandelier
