Hygge on Rosseau Cottage
Tastefully designed and filled with natural light, our newly-built Scandi-inspired cottage offers all of the conveniences of modern living, while being surrounded by wilderness and nature. There is no better place to enjoy some much-needed rest and relaxation and reconnect with family and friends. We’re located in the heart of Muskoka, within a 2-hour drive from Toronto.
The cottage will comfortably accommodate six people. On the lower level, you’ll find an open space floor plan with a modern kitchen boasting stainless steel appliances, including a wine fridge and induction oven, a dining area and a cozy living area to enjoy our unique Stuv fireplace. This is where the three bedrooms are located (two Queen and one bunk bed), as well as a full bathroom, featuring a modern shower, washer and dryer. The second floor has a big sectional and a 75” Smart TV - this is where you can watch movies, play board games, have a karaoke night, enjoying the beautiful views. There is also another full bathroom with heated floors on this level.
While the interior of the property is beautiful, there’s just as much to enjoy outdoors—starting with our panoramic-view barrel sauna, cold plunge, hot tub, and an outdoor shower (available during the warmer months) with both hot and cold water. You can also explore private trails on the property that lead to a dock on the Shadow River, where two single kayaks and a two-person canoe await. A scenic, relaxed 30-minute paddle down the river will bring you to the Lake Rosseau marina, a perfect spot for a refreshing swim. Hygge on Rosseau is just a 2-mins drive from the Town of Rosseau where you will find a kids-friendly public beach with a boat launch, playground, change rooms/washrooms and a brand new marina. During summer Fridays, it’s home to the Rosseau Farmer’s Market. The town is also famous for its iconic Rosseau General Store operating since 1874 where you can buy groceries, local produce, delicious Kawartha Dairy ice cream and souvenirs. An LCBO and the popular Crossroads restaurant are also there for you to enjoy. Muskoka and our property is paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. Hikers and snowshoe aficionados will find trails right on the property and downhill skiing in the nearby Hidden Valley Resort. Muskoka is also one of the top cross country skiing destinations, with hundreds of kms of expertly groomed trails across the region.
Alina & Michael, Hygge on Rosseau owners
“We welcome you to Hygge on Rosseau and hope you will share our love for travel and the hygge way of life. We first learned about this philosophy from “The Little Book of Hygge: The Danish Way to Live Well”. The Danes have the reputation for being the happiest people in the world, and we want to spread that happiness. So what is Hygge? It’s about an atmosphere and an experience, rather than about things. It is about being with the people we love. A feeling of home. When we conceptualized this retreat in the nature, we wanted to create a place that will elicit all of these warm and cozy feelings and we can’t wait for you to experience it.”
