About this property

4BR Cottage-Private Sandy Beach across the street - amazing sunsets

Basic 4 BR cottage nestled in the woods. 2 BR are on the upper floor and 2 in basement (with walkout). There's a large kitchen, living room/dining area, and a basic bathroom with tub. There is also a large deck that has a table & deck chairs (and a barbecue).

This is not a luxury rental and the price is reflective of your access to the private sandy beach across the street and shared only with other renters and family
-
The Sky House is part of a compound known as Tondakea Lodge. which consists of three 2 bedroom cabins, one 4 bedroom house, and one 2 bedroom house; all bookable through VRBO (See bottom of this description).
-
Located across the street from our private beach, at the edge of a 27 acre forest, the Tondakea Lodge once was the home and school of Franz Johnston, of the Group of Seven artists, and later became a resort in the 50s. Although updates have been made over the years the buildings still retain their original charm and rustic feel.

Enjoy long walks through the forest, go for a swim in the crystal clear waters of Georgian Bay, or take a 10-15 min walk along the water to Balm Beach.
