We are done! Five months of renovating and improving this cottage property is complete. Open for business with some availability for July and August beginning July 4th.

Every inch of this cottage has had an upgrade with three new bathrooms with heated floors, three bedrooms have been gutted and redecorated, all floors sanded and varnished, deck and dock upgrade, new outdoor dining table like none other, and every surface freshly painting and much more.

New photos are coming Saturday June 30, 2024.
This has been a 47 year project and over the years I chipped away at improvements until this last renovation which was the icing on the cake.

Hi my name is Pauline Raymond I am at your service to create the best holiday ever at our fabulous five-star vacation property.

The swimming is accessible from the step down dock or from our brand new sandy beach. Our lake is warm without weeds, a sandy bottom and a gentle slope for walking into the water for young children.

The cottage was always meant as a retreat for rest and renewal. My vision statement has changed with one word "Respect...."
for the woods, the lake and the cottage. "Come Home to your Heart at Morning Mist Cottage Retreat a place of Respect, Peace Laughter and Love!

This September we are installing a brand new top of the line Arctic Spa to complete the wet or dry sauna. Arctic spas are the most highly rated salt water spa in Canada not only for cold climates but for for ultimate sanitation. Look for more information on the therapeutic value of these spas.

I am open for business throughout the fall and this year once again open for Christmas and New Years. Christmas is a five night stay and New Years is a three night stay. I am closing my doors for January and February but look for availability after that.
The main cottage has a primary bedroom with an en-suite and a king bed. For those wanting one level it is easily accessible. The upper level has two bedrooms with queen beds; one named the Green room and one the Yellow Room. The loft has a pull out coach.

We accommodate nine guests in the warmer months and seven to eight in November and December. Babies under 24 months are free.

My rates are for four guests with additional guests at $20.00 per night. With a two year long renovation that included gutting the interior for a state-of-the-art kitchen, new floors, insulation, foundation and everything in between.

The summer with our beautiful lake and docks survived the fires, and then the heavy rains. We have two new youth mango coloured kayaks for six to 13-year old’s and a two seat adult kayak and a new orange Pelican single kayak to add to our red canoe. So much to do to create the Happiness that is the name for our main cottage.

The woods are a lush beautiful green right now and in the fall are alive with red, gold and orange. With 62 acres of woodland, privacy is what you have.

Wildlife is abundant...Mr. Beaver is back. He swims from one side of the lake to the other collecting limbs for his home on the other side of the lake. Often there is a family of ducks who swim over to nosy around before moving on.
If you get up early, singing birds will be music to your ears and at night the crickets chirp there way to a cheerful sleep.
For those interested in wildlife a mother deer and her babes are often be seen bounding through the woods.

Morning Mist is unique for its abundance of woodland, privacy, lake for swimming and boating and the history that has created what we have today.

Our renovation three years ago was hard as we gutted the main living dining and kitchen to provide a country kitchen with all the bells and whistles; a cook's delight! We are indeed a five-star property.

My property was stunning without some updating however was necessary and I must say I am in love with the accomplishment.

This lakefront property is suitable for families, couples, female and male retreats, honeymooners and lots of children.

We offer comfortable beds, three fireplaces, a dry and steam cedar sauna, jet massage whirlpool tub in the primary bedroom and everything you can think of to have a very special holiday. Yoga mats are in the primary bedroom for use anywhere on the decks and most importantly on our new yoga dock which will accommodate 14 guests for yoga.

Since the pandemic we have maintained high standards for cleaning and sanitation.

Morning Mist has a distinctive history that has created what we have today. Coming soon...I am working on a nostalgic collection through words and photos as we moved through the years.

This secluded property of water and woodland is a step back to simplicity with countless amenities. Our privacy allows guests to connect with nature and have a sense of peace.

We offer everything... watercraft, life jackets, firewood, outdoor fire pit and Geo Dome, swings and adventure in the forest. Everything is included, Weber BBQ, indoor stone fireplace, propane outdoor fireplace and our round wood burning fire pit.

For those looking for a spring and summer holiday the lake is great for swimming by the first of June and often swimming is refreshing through to end of October especially after a hot sauna.

Whether you are a single person, group, couple or a family with children this gorgeous retreat will entertain and delight all.

Only twenty minutes away are pristine isolated white sand beaches...The Sand Hills Beach and Roseway just a stone’s throw away. Swimming at these beaches is possible and very warm when the tide is coming in.

The Sand Hills beach in particular has the warmest ocean water around if the tide is coming in on a hot day. My children and I often left the cottage when the conditions were perfect at the beach to return to the quiet and tranquility of the lake.

Twenty minutes away we have a nine-hole Golf Club named River Hills Golf and Country Club. Just a mere 17 minutes away you can enjoy our historic town of Shelburne offering fine dining, the home of the third largest natural harbour in the world. The historic waterfront was the site of the film The Scarlet Letter starring Diem Moore.

The pricing reflects double occupancy. The three private bedrooms with two queens and one king plus a pull out in the loft completes the main cottage.

We have a charming bunkhouse with a queen bed and two bunk beds. My grandchildren love the bunkhouse as do teens and adults.

Morning Mist Cottage is special and it is the little things that make it so inviting.... I offer so much in one property and friends and families join together to create wonderful memories.

Whether you are a single person, group of men and ladies, inter generational families, yoga and wellness enthusiasts, this gorgeous retreat will entertain and delight all. It could be your special place for a small wedding of social gathering!
