20 km north of Toronto, Canada – Sorry; this Lakeside Cottage is no longer available for short term rental and for home exchange (See section on Home Exchange). It has been rented long term. So close to Toronto and yet you feel so far. Enjoy Lake Wilcox and the surrounding area. Take a dip to cool off or take the canoe on a nice calming journey. This lake home is a 35 minute drive to the Greater Toronto Area.
Lake Wilcox is located in the community of Oak Ridges at the headwaters of the East Humber River. As the largest kettle lake on the Oak Ridges Moraine, Lake Wilcox supports diverse and sensitive biological communities while also providing users with recreational activities such as skating, fishing and water sports. There are four Town properties on the shoreline of Lake Wilcox – Sunset Beach Park, Jesse Venek Park and North Shore Parkette provide lake front viewing and picnic space and the Fish & Wildlife Sanctuary/Pike Hatchery for those interested in a nature experience.
Hiking is also popular in this area, whether your ideal hike is a few hours or few days, you’ll find fascination in every step as you discover many nature trails in this area. These trails offer everything from urban trails that let you explore the towns and cities, to wilderness trails where it’s just you and nature.
Many of these walking and hiking trails follow the routes of the aboriginals and explorers.
