Welcome to Lake Edge Cottages

Rustic Charm Meets Modern Comfort at Our Pet-Friendly Lakeside Resort

Welcome to the tranquil oasis of Lake Edge Cottages, where nature's beauty is complemented by sustainable hospitality at our pet-friendly resort. Located in the Kawarthas just minutes north of Peterborough, Ontario, and 1.5 hours from Toronto, our cozy one-bedroom and two-bedroom cottages with lake and/or pool views offer total comfort and relaxation. Select accommodations also feature private hot tubs—perfect for a soothing soak surrounded by the beauty of nature.


Our 12.5-acre property is nestled on 450 ft. of pristine Katchewanooka Lake shoreline, surrounded by islands, lush forests, and vibrant wildlife. It's the perfect place to unwind, enjoy the great outdoors, and connect with nature throughout the seasons. Explore scenic hiking/biking trails, paddle around the islands on Lake Katchewanooka, or take a refreshing swim. As the weather turns, soak in the vibrant fall colours with a captained boat cruise and enjoy cozy bonfires under the stars. Our location offers a one-of-a-kind getaway that both your family and your furry companions will cherish for years to come.

We had a wonderful week at Lake Edge and cannot thank Steve, Anne and family enough. They went over the top to accommodate our group of 30, aged 15 months to over 70 and there was no hesitation.
