Contactless Check-in
he Red Barn offers a quiet retreat close to the vibrant attractions of Tobermory and the Bruce Peninsula. Enjoy exploring Tobermory's charming shops, delicious eateries, and unique experiences. Dive into the adventure with a visit to the Bruce Peninsula National Park, the stunning Grotto, and the iconic Flowerpot Island.
The Red Barn provides beautiful access to Lake Huron, perfect for canoeing, relaxing on the dock, and watching the sunset. Larry's Lake is shallow (3-5' off the dock), making it ideal for kids to play and catch minnows, though we recommend children be at least 5 years old due to the steep cottage stairs.
Enjoy the rustic charm and natural beauty of this fantastic location!
You have full access to the cottage and the property, you may be able to use the garage upon request

Very quiet area, perfect for that weekend getaway with your sweetheart or a smaller family. Larry's lake is a shallow, sandy lake. Off the dock ranges from 3-5' (depending on water levels that year) and is good for kids (we recommend at least 5 years or older for the fact there are steep stairs in the cottage) to play in and try and catch minnows. It's a great location for relaxing on the dock. The cottage allows 3 adults and 2 children max.
Beautiful hiking trails located within 15 mins as well as the stunning Grotto.
A vehicle is needed to get around the Peninsula.
