Windermere House, Historic Victorian resort house on Lake Rosseau, Muskoka Lakes, Canada
The white wooden Windermere House rises along Lake Rosseau with 56 guest rooms, multiple restaurants, a pub, and a private four-bedroom cottage.
Built in 1870 by Thomas Aitken from Scotland, the original structure burned down in 1996 during a film production and was rebuilt the following year.
The property earned the name 'The Lady of the Lakes' and stands as a symbol of luxury hospitality in the Muskoka region for over 150 years.
Guests receive access to an outdoor pool, tennis courts, basketball facilities, spa services, golf course, marina, and private beach on Lake Rosseau.
The resort includes a water tower from the 1920s and offers waterfront fractional cottage vacation residences through The Windermere Cottages program.
