Whippoorwill Cottage

The cottage is located on a dead end road with minimal traffic. You will have a partial lakeview and it is close to the water. There are a number of unidentified shipwrecks in Lion’s Head Harbour; the most shallow is a 42-metre long schooner that can be easily seen from a kayak. Looking out from the Lion’s Head Beach you can see Point Hangcliffe, the highest section of this area of the escarpment, and farther along, at the end, you can detect the outline of the famous lion’s head. There is excellent deep water fishing for salmon and trout in the area. Tobermory is a short 30 min drive North where you can discover the beautiful vistas of Mermaid Cove and Little Cove along with many National Parks. The Grotto calls all tourists - it's definitely a must-see! The Bruce Trail is another feature not to be missed. You will find entrances throughout Northern Bruce Peninsula. This trail can be picked up just a few minutes walk from The Whippoorwill Cottage or take a very short drive and park at the Richardson Side Trail. If you are a photographer - Lion's Head trails have the most spectacular places to sit and photograph. There is a public access to the water across the street or swim at the beautiful Lion's Head public beach. The cottage is centrally located for quick access to anywhere in the Bruce Peninsula.
