About this property

Original Oliphant Cottage with Spectacular Sunsets Over Lake Huron

This is an original Oliphant cottage built in 1911. Has been refurbished and made into a 4 season cottage. We are right across the road from the beach and a 2 minute walk to the government docks and marina.There is a boat launch at the marina if you bring a boat or PWC. There is a 10$ fee for launching. We have shallow water with sand to walk out in or swim, kayak, SUP, or canoe out in front of the cottage. With the water down in the lake there is a huge beach out front. You can fish off the government dock. On windy days you can watch or windsurf / kite surf yourself right in front of the cottage. You are located about a 10 minute drive to Sauble Beach. We are an hour drive to the top of the Peninsula to Tobermory and 13 km across the Peninsula to Wiarton on the Georgian Bay. Very central to do whatever outdoor activities you would like or just relax and look over the lake at the cottage.The cottage can sleep up to 6 people as we have a queen bed in the front bedroom and a single bunk bed in the other bedroom. We also have 2 singles in the living room area that is a day bed/couch and a trundle you can pull out from underneath. There is a bbq for outdoor cooking including the propane and we also include fire wood for your outdoor fires. The kitchen is fully stocked for all your cooking/baking needs and we have a drip coffee maker and a Keurig.We have a Eastlink channel selection for the TV. We do have a ROKU for your use and a disc player and some discs for your use also. You may also enjoy having a campfire at night and no need to grab wood - we have wood for you when you arrive. Pets are not allowed - so sorry but we have experienced damage from pets and had to try to fix the cottage quickly and replace furniture before the next renters arrive. We also were having to picking up excrement so that the next renters were not stepping in it. This also allows renters with allergies also, to know they are safe. The Bruce Peninsula is a dark skies environment so star gazing is amazing here. If luck is on your side you may even see the northern lights.
We live next door at 11 Bay Street so if you have any questions or problems do not hesitate to come see us or call or text if we are not home.
