Your hosts, Jordan & Shelby Hayle
Nine years ago, the idea of a waterfront cottage was added to our vision board, igniting a spark of inspiration that fueled our determination to transform it into a reality. And now, after years of meticulous planning, unwavering dedication, and relentless pursuit, that dream is finally a reality and we can’t wait to share it with you!
During our 2 year build process we travelled back and forth to our land and tried every eatery in the area, so we truly feel like experts on the subject matter! Now that Eco Bay Chalet is open for guests, one of the things we love to do as a family when we are enjoying our own getaway at Eco Bay Chalet, is to enjoy the local restaurant scene and surrounding area. There is so much to see and do!
We’ve compiled a list of our favourites to give you options when you don’t feel like cooking or simply want an adventure. For more information about things to do and see in the area, download our Eco Bay Chalet Stay Guide, a curated guide to help plan your year round getaway in the Port Severn area.
DESIGNED FOR LIFE’S BEST MEMORIES
We designed our dream cottage as the ideal setting for your next family or friends getaway in the heart of Muskoka. We invite you to indulge in four season luxury surrounded by the beauty of a protected bay and woodlands. We’d love to have you join us for an unforgettable experience like no other!
