As you make your way down the tree-lined hill, anticipation builds with every turn. Nestled in a peaceful bay on beautiful Chandos Lake, Loon Bay Serenity offers a tranquil escape framed by lush greenery and the gentle calls of loons across the water. Arriving through the cozy screened-in sunroom makes unpacking easy, rain or shine. Inside, the great room feels both spacious and cozy, with décor that celebrates art and history. The bright, inviting kitchen offers ample counter space and flows seamlessly into the dining area, where a large table seats eight and provides easy access to the outdoor deck for al fresco dining on warm summer nights. The family room, with vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, invites you to relax and take in the stunning views of Chandos Lake. Curl up by the woodburning fireplace on a cool evening or enjoy the natural light that fills the space. The main-floor primary bedroom offers a spacious retreat with a semi-ensuite bathroom just steps away. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations, including two Queen bedrooms and a bunk room for younger guests, complete with toys and books. Outside, follow the natural stone path to the lake, where a long dock is perfect for swimming and sun-soaked afternoons. A second, smaller dock closer to the cottage offers a peaceful spot for fishing beneath the trees.
