INSIDE
Step inside and feel the warmth of our well-loved cottage, with its cozy kitchen that boasts a quirky touch – the cupboard doors are made from a vintage refrigerator box! The high ceilings with exposed wood rafters add to the rustic vibe. The open layout seamlessly connects the kitchen, living, and dining areas.
One of our coolest features? The front of the cottage opens up to create a breezeway, keeping the whole place cool and comfortable.
OUTSIDE
The large front yard is perfect for setting up a badminton net or playing other games. Enjoy outdoor dining with colorful vintage chairs and a shady umbrella, and fire up the propane BBQ for your favorite cottage meals. The highlight? The amazing lake view and direct lake access, complete with a sunset deck where you can sip a drink and enjoy the most gorgeous sunsets. And with plenty of beach space this year, there’s even more room for fun and relaxation!
NOTE: Approx. 80 stairs to the beach - and there is loads of beach here! The lakebed can be sandy or stoney depending on what the lake gives you that day. But it sure is fun to try to find the ever changing sandbars. Generally you will find sand 3ft out. It's fun to go stone collecting - Lake Huron is a geologists paradise! Just bring some water shoes. The nice thing is, it's not weedy or slimy at all.
