Located on a 7-acre promontory with spectacular water views, Baywinds epitomizes gracious Georgian Bay cottage living. In collaboration with preeminent builder Normerica, the owners adhered to four guiding principles in designing their timber frame main cottage and guest cottage: accentuate the spectacular views, create a seamless transition between indoors and out, maximize privacy, and maintain a traditional cottage sensibility. The main cottage is entered via covered breezeway that separates the central great room from a private two-bedroom wing, family room and four-piece bath.
Spacious and airy, the 800-square-foot octagonal great room has a vaulted ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows that reveal sweeping views over neighboring islands and the open water beyond. The south/west orientation captures the sun throughout the day and breathtaking sunsets in the evening. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living room are anchored by a massive granite stone fireplace. French door walkouts enhance the flow, opening onto generous decks shaded by deep roof overhangs, and to a screened porch for al fresco dining. A covered patio beyond the great room leads to the quiet master wing with a large bedroom, four-piece ensuite, and outdoor shower. The 420-square-foot guest cottage offers comfort and privacy with a large bedroom/sitting room, kitchenette, three-piece bath, and covered front porch.
The deep-water harbor has an L-shaped dock that can accommodate four or five boats, a second swimming dock, a boat ramp, and a sauna close to the water’s edge. Pocket gardens scattered throughout the property lend splashes of color and groomed trails link the buildings to the harbor. An ATV eases transport of guests, gear, and groceries. Located on the southwest point of Frying Pan Island, the property enjoys ultimate privacy while the island itself offers convenient provisioning at the local marina, a children’s camp, pickle ball courts, tennis, and neighborhood restaurant just a short boat ride or overland walk away. Baywinds is ideally situated to access two of Georgian Bay’s most sought-after picnic destinations—the Western and the Umbrella Islands.
