We often spend a lot of time trying to decide what the key feature of a property is that sets it apart from others. Not only does this recently renovated property have all the amenities and comforts that will make your stay a memorable one, but it also has the most amazing owners that have truly gone out of their way to ensure their guests have a great stay at Hearts Home.
Situated on the western shores of Head Lake, between Orillia and Norland this cottage sits on an elevated lot which gives the most amazing lake views. With several sitting areas, a hot tub, hammock, outdoor sand volleyball court, kids swing set and trampoline, there is something for everyone even before heading down to the water.
Down a flight of steps you come down to the waterfront. The owners have provided a canoe, kayak and paddleboat for you to use as well as a selection of life jackets and safety gear to get you out on the water. The primary access into the water is from the stairs on the dock and the water is approximately 5 ft at the end of the dock. If you are looking to do some fishing, Head Lake has excellent Bass fishing and the owners have installed a new dock for the 2013 season complete with cleats for mooring your own boat or the watercraft provided.
In the cottage you can see the effort and detail these owners have gone to, to ensure everything is perfect for your stay. With high-quality linens in the bedrooms and plush mattresses you will certainly have comfortable sleeps.
The property is all on one level and the bedrooms are grouped together on the south side of the cottage. The bathroom is just off the kitchen. The kitchen is well-equipped with all the appliances you will need during your stay and the breakfast bar will be great for chatting and sharing a drink or two while getting meals together. Behind the breakfast bar is the living room giving an open plan feel to the property. Here you will be able to relax on the leather furniture while taking in a movie or playing games, but the best part of the cottage is the sun room. With large windows looking out over the lake and when you open the windows the warm scented country air breezes in to allow you to enjoy the outdoors while staying in the shade and undercover during the occasional summer storm.
We are delighted to represent this property and are sure you will have one your best vacations ever if you decide to stay here.

Trivia The nearby village of Norland was named in 1862 by Reverend Bayard Taylor after an African village he'd worked in, Nordland. The name was representative of the village's location at the northern limits of civilization in Victoria County. Norland had been known as McLaughlin's Mills for two prior years, after Alexander McLaughlin, who built numerous mills along the Gull River.
