Some places feel like someone else's. This one won't.
Old snowshoes and wooden skis on the wall, mismatched Muskoka chairs with a few good stories behind them, a kitchen table that's seen a lot of long dinners. Meer Cottage has the kind of character that comes from a place people actually live in and love. A real cottage experience, through and through.
Meer Cottage sits on a private point on Wollaston Lake: 170 feet of northwest-facing shoreline, a gentle path down to the water, and views that face directly into the sunset. It sleeps 8, it runs year-round, and it's looked after by the people who own it.
We look after it ourselves and love sharing it with people who'll appreciate it. Friends and family get first pick of dates, but we're happy to hear from anyone who feels like the right fit. Booking directly with us is always the best way in.
The Water 170 feet of private waterfront on a northwest-facing point. Quiet, private, and pointed directly at the sunset.
The Space Sleeps 8. Fully winterized. Four seasons. Spacious and full of character, a real home built for people to actually spend time together.
The Point A private point on the lake means water on three sides, with views down the lake and a quiet that's hard to find on a regular lot.

Where the name comes from
Meer is the Dutch word for lake. It also means more. So Meer Cottage carries both meanings at once: a lake cottage, and more of what matters. It is a small nod to Ellen's family in the Netherlands, sitting right alongside the old Canadiana pieces that already lived here before we did.
About the Owners
We're Ellen and Harrison. We found this place, fell for it, and have been making it our own ever since. The dream of having a place in nature where we can bring people together, this started on a beach in Australia in 2019. This is it.
