1. Lake of the woods Boat House

This gorgeous looking house in Winnipeg is one of the most famous houses in Canada. This lovely lakeside home is a great place to spend long summer days and soak up the sun. If the weather permits, you can even take a dip into the lake from the sun deck. The designers behind this gorgeous boat house are Unit 7 Architecture. Let us have more detailed look at this house.

The huge deck over the lake

The sun deck of this lake house is a great place to take a sun bath on a warm sunny day. The sun chairs ensure you have a relaxing time on the deck.

This is an inevitable part of a boat house, from where the water adventures begin.

A wooden path leads to the lower portion of the home, and also to the deck. You must be wondering how this house would look from the inside? This home hosts a beautiful kitchen, stunning fireplace and a cozy living area with beautiful views of the natural surroundings.

2. Lac St. Sixte summer residence

This wooden cottage house is built on the hillside, and owing to the large glass walls and windows, it is a bright spot glowing through the woods. The house offers a seamless integration to the outside, due to the large sliding glass doors.
