What's more, there's no public access to Draper Lake, so you’ll have the place practically to yourself.
The property’s host, Jamie, has great reviews and provides free access to kayaks, row boats, and canoes — just in case you wanted to have the quintessential Canadian experience. Although, we guess that requires actually catching a fish!
This secluded cabin's best feature, apart from the stunning location, is its dreamy pergola/patio built on the shores of the lake.
It's truly perfect for late-summer dinners or drinks with friends, all while enjoying the beautiful view.
The view features three small islands: Birch, Stonehouse, and Loon, all of which can be admired while sipping your morning coffee.
The lot is a total of 50 acres and the listing claims you can hike within it, so you’ll have tons of room for you and your friends to explore.

One reviewer wrote: “The cottage was perfectly situated for a few days of relaxation! You can't ask for a better view of a beautiful lake... all to yourself. Can't recommend this place enough! We will be back again.”
“Jamie’s cottage was much better than we expected! The pictures don’t do it justice,” wrote another. If that's the case, it must be truly gorgeous in person.
The listing includes a video overview of the property, including aerial views of the lake and the surrounding acres.
The waters are crystal clear and there's nothing but Canadian wilderness for miles.
