The reasons to live at 3860 Desert Lake Road
24' aluminum and cedar FENDOCK*.
Peace and privacy, view
Lots of lovely mature trees.
Wildlife, particularly birdlife, including bald eagles, palliated
woodpeckers, flickers, downy woodpeckers, phoebes, goldfinches, osprey,
kingfishers, chickadees, nuthatches, blue jays, grouse, red winged
blackbirds, mergansers. malards, doves, robins etc. and many we likely
cannot identify.
Enjoy watching the otters frolic, (mainly fall and winter), herons, here all
summer & particularly visible when arriving back in Springtime, sitting on
the ice next to the open patches of water & then there are the migratory
Canada geese (approx 100) returning and resting here for 2 days, as they did
last Spring. Really, there is an ever changing picture outside our window.
We enjoy quiet paddling on the water, it's right here, so we can go out for
a short while, when we come home from work on a summer's evening. There is
only one other family on this lake.
We live in the country but we can still pop to the store if we have
forgotten something, we are not too far from village amenities and easily
accessible to Kingston.
No significant distance from here to the loveliest of Provincial Parks,
Frontenac Provincial Park, where having a seasonal pass, or year long pass,
means one is able canoe or hike the trails there, at will. (Also, there are
ungroomed wilderness cross country ski trails for winter fun)
Near here, also, there is access to the Rideau trail and side trails not
far away either, such as off Bedford Road to Gould Lake.
ALSO - it's a unique house, build on the natural rock, rustic, in keeping
with the natural surroundings, but with the essential modern requirements,
creating a most comfortable environment .
P.S.
People in this part of the world don't appreciate that from Kingston, into
the countryside, is a relatively traffic free commute, much shorter than the
average person in the GTA makes on a daily basis only to reach suburbia!
