Boshkung Lake Waterfront Cottages
Boshkung Lake is a fairly large, diamond-shaped lake that measures over five and a half kilometres from north to south, and over three kilometres from east to west.
Perfect for second properties and cottage getaways, these private homes are nestled in among a thick forest of trees, providing homeowners with secluded properties that open out onto incredible lakeshore views of Boshkung Lake.
Many of these spacious homes are made with wooden materials for a comfortable, nostalgic yet modern feel that makes for perfect cozy winter evenings cuddled up by the fireplace, or as a backdrop to summer evenings outdoors by the firepit.
Boat docks are common features of these waterfront properties, meaning homeowners can splash into Boshkung Lake right out of their back door! This multi-use lake is also perfect for boating, fishing and so many other water activities.
