Scott McGillivray Renovates a Rentable Muskoka Paddler’s Paradise

When Nadia and her husband moved to Canada, they fell in love with the cottage life dream. So they went ahead and bought themselves a lakefront Muskoka property with gorgeous views of the water. The inside of the property, however, wasn’t so memorable.

When the couple decided they wanted to rent out the property for 12 weeks of the year to recoup some of their costs (not to mention save for their kids’ futures), they called in Scott McGillivray for help. Together with designer Debra Salmoni and the Vacation House Rules team, they took this below-average rental property and transformed it into a canoe-themed paddler’s paradise.
