South Shore of Royal Lake – Private Four-Season Cottage Retreat Escape to the peace and beauty of Royal Lake, just under two hours from Winnipeg and located west of Kenora in Ontario. Tucked among the trees with the water only steps away, this exceptional four-season cottage offers outstanding privacy, comfort, and a true lakefront lifestyle. Built in 2010 on a solid concrete foundation, this well-maintained 1,532 sq. ft. cottage is completely move-in ready. Inside, you’ll find soaring ceilings, granite countertops, warm natural light, and beautiful views of the lake. Designed for year-round enjoyment, the home features an electric furnace, an airtight woodstove, well water, and a septic holding tank. Existing furnace ducting also makes the future addition of air conditioning simple and convenient. The property is part of an exclusive 6.8-acre shared ownership development with only six cottages, ensuring exceptional privacy and generous spacing between neighbours. Ownership includes the cottage plus one share in the corporation that owns the land. Property taxes and shared costs are divided among owners, and each cottage has its own electrical meter. A gated keypad entrance from the highway adds excellent security and peace of mind. Outdoor living is just as impressive, with two large decks totaling over 850 sq. ft.—ideal for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying the lake views. A beautiful sandy beach and your own private dock are located only steps from the cottage, making it easy to enjoy boating, swimming, and fishing all summer long. With low carrying costs, a quiet and well-kept setting, and true four-season functionality, this is a rare opportunity to own a private lakeside retreat close to Winnipeg. There is a dock available for this cottage, a one time fee of $15k payable to the corporation applies. Then you have it all, dock, beach and year round cottage. Make plans to come and see. Great opportunity.
