Text description provided by the architects. Nestled amidst the breathtaking beauty of the Georgian Bay landscape, Six Mile Lake Cottage embodies a tranquil retreat. The undulating shoreline gracefully merges with the cottage, creating a seamless connection with nature from every vantage point.

Our design philosophy for this project represents a bold departure from the ordinary. Rather than merely blurring the line between indoors and outdoors, we aim to erase it. The cottage acts as a bridge, integrating the peaceful ambiance of its surroundings into every aspect of its interior. With the shoreline embracing three sides of the property, each room offers panoramic views that inspire a sense of harmony and peace. Large sliding windows in the living areas and bedrooms further enhance this integration, facilitating a fluid transition between interior comfort and the natural splendor outside.
