* New - free day pass to Mikisew, Arrowhead, Algonquin and any Ont provincial park. This original stone cottage suite is suitable for 2 people only and is located on East Bay (Eagle Lake) approximately 10 km west of South River on paved roads, a 45 min. drive north of Huntsville and 45 minutes south of North Bay. (Approximately 3 hours north of Toronto). The nearby villages of Sundridge and South River have all the necessary conveniences (Foodland, LCBO, Beer Store, Home Hardware, gas stations and various eateries). It is close to Eagle Lake Golf Course, Eagle Lake Narrows Country Store and beach, Mikisew Provincial Park, Hockey Opportunity Camp, Coughlin's Riding Ranch, Copperhead Distillery, McLaren's Maple Syrup (in spring) and many cycling/ walking trails (the Forgotten Trails). Arrowhead Provincial Park is 45 min. away and in winter has spectacular skating trails. Ski, snowshoeing and hiking trails are newly opened at Almaguin High School in South River and Mikisew. Sugar Dogs dog sledding is nearby. Algonquin Provincial Park is about 1 1/4 hrs. away.
The stone cottage suite is tucked away on 350 feet of lake frontage on 2 acres of wooded property, well back from the road which is on a dead end.
At this piece of paradise, you will enjoy beautiful sunsets or a family of loons from the upper or lower decks overlooking several hundred feet of water frontage. Have an afternoon siesta in the screened porch or a refreshing beverage in the 'courtyard' of perennial flowers. Explore the many islands in the bay by canoe or kayak. Fish for bass in the paddleboat. In the evening, roast marshmallows at the fire pit by the water's edge or enjoy a fire in the courtyard. Swim in the quiet, clean bay with entry to sand bottom frontage. (A canoe, paddleboat, and 2 new lake kayaks are available for use, along with life jackets and paddles) Please note: There are approximately 30 stone steps down to the water from the upper deck. The cottage is about 65 feet from the water's edge. Some mobility is required.
Winter is also a tranquil and peaceful wonderland. Enjoy clear, starry nights, deer crossing the bay, snowshoeing or cross country skiing from your back door. Snowshoes, a kicksled and a firepit are available for your use. Ski and snowshoe trails are also located 8 minutes away in Mikisew. In March or April, take a visit to a local sugar shack and watch the production of maple syrup. By chance or appointment, take a tour of our local South River Craft Brewery and enjoy free samples! Check out the Copperhead Distillery in Sundridge. Sugar Dogs Dogsledding is outside of Sundridge.
This cozy and quaint cottage is one of the original cottages on Eagle Lake built in the 1930's and has been completely renovated but its rustic charm has been preserved. The suite, which is suitable for two people only, has a living/dining room with fireplace, bedroom (double bed), new 3 piece bathroom (shower only, no bath), and a small kitchenette with a full sized fridge, toaster oven, kettle, microwave, induction hot plate, coffeemaker, slow cooker and all necessary equipment but there is no full size oven. Another double bed is located in the loft, accessible by a ladder (see photo). A barbeque and lawn furniture are available. Internet, somewhat limited , is included and cell service is reliable. Towels, linens, toilet paper, firewood and propane are provided. Drinking water is supplied. The main source of heat is a wood stove with propane furnace back up. I appreciate guests keeping the wood fire going primarily as propane is very expensive. I supply a daily supply of wood and happy to help guests get a fire going.
The suite is for 2 people only. Sorry no guests, no pets and no smoking. The cottage is not suitable for children as there is a wood stove, loft ladder, rocky shoreline.
The cottage is situated well back from a dead end road. In the winter, an all wheel drive vehicle with snowtires is recommended or park at the top of the driveway. The driveway is about 200 metres and a beautiful walk overlooking the lake. Sleds are available to transport gear. Usually I am able to help transport your belongings with my AWD vehicle depending on the snow conditions and your arrival time.
It is adjacent (attached) to the owner's home (separated by the cottage's 12 inch stone wall.) It is very private and quiet. My guests are almost exclusively couples wishing privacy and as you can see from the many reviews, they are delighted. Some mobility is required as there are stone steps to the water.

| My husband & I visited the Stone Cottage for the first time this weekend for a mid-fall escape and it was exactly what we hoped for! Elizabeth was welcoming and attentive, checking in with us to ensure that our needs were met - and they were. She provided a day parking pass for the local Provincial Park for hiking, which we took advantage of, but otherwise we just made ourselves cozy by the fire, reading our books & enjoying each other's company. The kitchenette was well-stocked with cookware & dishes so we had no issues preparing the meals we had planned. The whole experience was lovely and I wouldn't hesitate to return and/or recommend it to anyone else looking for a quiet getaway!

| Thank you Elizabeth for another wonderful stay in Stone Cottage.
This was our fifth year visiting your lovely cottage and it felt like we were coming home again.
Some of our highlights this trip was sitting by the lake and taking in the peacefulness and tranquility while listening to the loons. We also enjoyed exploring the local towns and hiking in Mikisew Park.
Stone Cottage is a little haven that gives anyone who stays there relaxation, peace of mind and inspiration. We truly feel renewed after our visit.
Thank you for all of your kindness & generousity Elizabeth. We can't wait to be back next July 2025. Molly & Sandy - Toronto, Ontario

| It was our seventh time in this beautiful place. Meeting our new and old friends, kayaking, swimming in the cool lake water, incredible sunsets, bird watching, reading, and knitting quickly filled our days. The Stone Cottage has settled in our hearts forever, this is the place where we rest our body and soul. Thank you, Elizabeth, for our sincere conversations and your kindness and optimism, which we are charged with until our next meeting.

| We had a lovely stay at Stone Cottage. This was my forth time visiting and it was wonderful. I spent most days relaxing on the deck reading, watching humming birds and other small wildlife go by. We even saw an eagle. We listened to loons on the lake and relaxed. It was a piece of heaven !
The cottage was absolutley wonderful and we can't wait to return next Summer. Thank you Elizabeth for everything and making us feel so welcome.
