About This Property

Established Boutique Waterfront Retreat | Turnkey Hospitality Platform. AWAY Cabins presents a rare opportunity to acquire an established boutique waterfront retreat on the shores of Rice Lake, approximately 90 minutes from the GTA. The property has been thoughtfully developed as a small hospitality compound featuring five fully renovated and winterized cabins, a two bedroom main house, and curated guest amenities including sauna, hot tub, docks, and outdoor gathering spaces overlooking the lake. Over the past few years the property has undergone extensive improvements, including upgraded electrical service, infrastructure enhancements, and the creation of a cohesive retreat environment designed for year-round operation. The property is being offered fully furnished and turnkey, allowing a new owner to step directly into operations. The hard work of creating the retreat has already been done. The cabins are winterized. The infrastructure is in place. The brand foundation has been established. Currently operating under part-time ownership with a direct booking platform and established guest following, the property offers clear opportunity for expanded retreat programming, corporate off-sites, wellness experiences, and increased year-round utilization under dedicated management. Importantly, the offering represents not only a hospitality opportunity but also the acquisition of a unique waterfront real estate asset within the Trent-Severn Waterway system. Replicating a property of this nature today - including waterfront land, winterized cabins, and the extensive build-out already completed - would likely exceed the current asking price. AWAY Cabins represents a compelling opportunity for a hospitality operator, retreat entrepreneur, or investor seeking a turnkey waterfront platform with plenty of room to grow.
