Interior Designer in Walkers Point
Where design meets stillness on the shores of Lake Muskoka.
Nestled on a tranquil stretch of Lake Muskoka, Walkers Point offers a rare blend of serenity and legacy. Here, mornings begin with quiet waters and mist-covered pines, and days unfold in rhythm with nature. It’s a place where families come to slow down, reconnect, and write new stories — year after year.
At Aspen & Ivy, we believe homes in Walkers Point should feel as timeless as the land they sit on. Whether you’re reimagining a generational cottage or creating something entirely new, we help you design a space that’s both sophisticated and deeply personal. One that captures the essence of lakeside living while standing beautifully on its own.
A peaceful lakeside retreat, rooted in nature and reflection.
The Turtle Point Cottage was born from a desire for harmony — between water and wood, modern comfort and natural calm. Our clients had fallen in love with the breathtaking rock point and multiple dock access points, but the existing cabin didn’t capture the warmth they envisioned.
So we reimagined the space from the ground up.
Inspired by the colours and textures of the Muskoka landscape, we crafted a soft, neutral palette that feels organic and serene. Every element was chosen with care — from the calming tones to the flowing layout — to create a home that invites rest and reflection. The design features natural materials, timeless silhouettes, and a sense of ease that welcomes everyone who walks through its doors.
The result is a modern cottage that doesn’t shout for attention — it simply feels right. A retreat that offers comfort, connection, and quiet beauty across every season.
Our Design Philosophy in Walkers Point
Designing in Walkers Point means working with the land, not against it. At Aspen & Ivy, we focus on:
-
Enhancing natural views without overpowering them
-
Using textures and tones that reflect the surrounding rocks, woods, and water
-
Prioritizing comfort and flow — for both intimate moments and large family gatherings
-
Designing spaces that feel grounded, thoughtful, and built to last
Every project we take on is rooted in story and setting. We don’t just decorate — we interpret, listen, and build meaning into every detail.
