Island life for under a million? This Orkney Island cottage might be your chance to own a piece of paradise
Ready to live your best lake life with just the right amount of indoor plumbing? This charming 3-season cottage on Orkney Island in the heart of the 1000 Islands could be your dream come true—or at the very least, the humblebrag-worthy summer escape your in-laws won’t stop texting about.
Perched on a private island (yes, really), this rustic beauty offers the rare combo of seclusion and convenience, thanks to a handy footbridge that connects you right to the mainland. It’s like owning a boat-access property—minus the boat and the awkward lifejacket tan lines.
Inside, the cottage sleeps up to 10 people (so go ahead, invite everyone you secretly like). It boasts three bedrooms, wide windows in every room, and views of the St. Lawrence River and Bateau Channel so gorgeous they’ll make you question why you ever tolerated traffic jams.
Water lovers, rejoice: you’ll have swimming, kayaking, fishing, and boating at your doorstep. And if you're more “deck chair and drink in hand,” that’s covered too.
Recent upgrades include:
New windows (for admiring nature without bugs),
PEX plumbing (say goodbye to mystery leaks), and
A Norweco septic system (it’s not glamorous, but trust us—you want this).
There’s even a spacious shed—ideal for stashing water toys, tools, or maybe transforming into a sweet little bunkie. Tiny house TikTok, anyone?
