Gerber Point Lodge

Good morning,

The sun is shining here today and things are looking up after a couple of days of snow and winter weather.

Mentally, I'm still in the Muskokas!  This time, we're visiting the cabin of Cindy Crawford and husband Randy Gerber.

Situated on their own 7 acre private island, their cabin is a respite from their busy lives for about a month every summer - a total escape and privacy for the family that can only be accessed by boat or seaplane.

Looks like a fun month for the family!

A games table for enjoying puzzles and I see a pool table to the side.

A nice sized dining table for the family and guests.

Kaia's Room

Nothing like lounging in a hammock on a sunny day!

Love that quilt!

Or how about diving into a cool lake on a hot day!

A leisurely boat ride sounds pretty nice, too!

Nice life!!

Boathouse Cottage

Hi again!

I'm back with another boathouse cottage! 

This Muskoka Victorian on Lake Rosseau is delightful with it's wraparound verandas and bay windows.

This is definitely the way to go if you're a boater (or not!!)

Gorgeous!

Good morning!

Here I am in Nova Scotia again........came over last week to stay with our grandchildren while their parents are enjoying a little getaway.

It's really, really cold here this week with a bit of snow yesterday, but I still have cottages on my mind.

The cottages I'm sharing today are really unique in that there's a main house and then a cottage/guesthouse/boathouse.  How would you like that?!

They're located in Muskoka, Ontario.........an area well known for it's posh weekend living with over 100,000 summer residents who live in mega mansions.  (Year round residents number about 60,000.)

According to Wikipedia, "many of the seasonal properties are large mansion-like summer estates, some of which have been passed down through families from generation to generation. Most of these expensive properties can be found along the shores of Muskoka's three major lakes: Lake Muskoka, Lake Rosseau, and Lake Joseph. In recent years, various Hollywood and sports stars have built retreats in Muskoka, including Steven Spielberg, Tom Hanks, Mike Weir,^[2] Martin Short, Harry Hamlin, Cindy Crawford, Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell."

That gives you an idea of summer living in Muskoka!

Enjoy!

Just park your boat next to the living room!

Love this living room in the boathouse.
