About Us
Locals who love this lake
We're a small, local family business, run by a father and son, and we look after cottages the way we'd want ours looked after.
Our story
Rosseau Cottage Keepers is a small, local family business, run by a father and son. We're passionate Muskoka people who live here year-round. We love this place in every season: the quiet after Thanksgiving, the first big snow, ice-out, and that first warm weekend in May when the docks go back in.
We know what a cottage means to a family. It's where the kids learned to swim, where the photos on the wall came from, where everyone ends up every summer. So when you lock up and head home, we take looking after it seriously.
We clean it, we check on it, and we tell you plainly what we found, with photos. From ice-out to freeze-up, and all the months between.
Why owners can trust us
Why trust us
A photo Keeper's Log after every visit
Dated, timestamped photos and notes, so you see exactly what we saw. It's laid out so you can forward it to your insurer.
Careful key handling
Keys are tagged with a code, never your name or address, and kept in a locked key safe. Every key movement is logged, and we make no copies without your written OK.
Local, year-round
We live in Muskoka in every season, not just summer. When a storm blows through or something needs attention, we're close by.
Published prices
Every price is on our Pricing page. We confirm the price with you before any visit, and no payment is taken online.
A family business
Father and son, doing the work ourselves. Our name and our reputation here on the lake ride on every visit.
Straight about the limits
Our Look-Ins are visual checks with a photo report. Anything that needs a trade goes to a licensed one, with your OK.
We'll treat your cottage like it's ours, because we know what these places mean to the families who love them.
