Welcome to our "One-of-a-kind" 6-Bedroom Log home, hand-carved by local log-home builder, Randy Boyd, just a 3-hour drive from Toronto or London and two hours from KW area.

This unique lakefront cottage comes fully-stocked with all the updated amenities. Experience an amazing place for large family gatherings or a getaway with close friends, all with plenty of space to share. It is even possible to plan a corporate or team-building event in a location that everyone can connect with.

The spacious country kitchen is equipped with an assortment of necessary appliances, like a Keurig coffee maker, fridge, stove-top, built-in oven, dishwasher, triple sink, and trash compactor. To boot, there is a spare freezer and bar fridge located inside the utility room alongside the central vac.

The Great room features a cathedral ceiling, an open view to the kitchen, a 12-foot stone fireplace with wood-burning stove, large dining table and sitting area, as well as a walkout to the lakefront multi-level deck. A propane BBQ is ready to handle all of your of hungry cottagers. Two big-screen televisions, equipped with streaming capability are ready to entertain you on those rainy days or easy-evenings.

The Principal bedroom features a King-sized bed, walk-in closet, and master bath with dual sinks and walk-in shower. Enjoy a glass of wine in the adjacent indoor hot tub/spa room and walkout to an enclosed sunroom or outer deck. Play a game of Ping-Pong or Air-hockey in the sunroom.

A large loft overlooks the Great room with a clear view through the floor to ceiling windows out to the lake. This is a great place to lounge, or have a mid-afternoon nap.

Each bedroom is truly unique with mind-boggling architecture and incredible views. Four upper level bedrooms are large with comfortable King or Queen beds. Our favourite is the king-sized bed with a private upper level balcony overlooking the lake.
One bedroom has a private upper level entrance/exit for those family members who want more privacy, or a quick escape.
A main-floor bedroom boasts a Queen sized "sleigh" bed as well as crate-style bunk beds with a twin on top and double underneath. Great for a family with young children.

Sit or swim on your private shore and watch the beautiful sunset, or take a short paddle in one of the included canoes, peddle-boat, or kayak around Parker Island, to Old Woman Island, or down the lazy Old Woman river. Try your skill on on the included "Stand-up paddle board". You can also take a short paddle, or walk around the bay to the public Sandy beach at Black Creek Prov. Park and go for a swim, hike, or a picnic, or just lay in the sand and watch the sunset over the lake.

Maybe you will be so lucky to see an early-morning deer or fox stroll by the home to the water's edge for a drink.

Share your dreams with friends and family at the outdoor campfire at the water's edge, or by the cozy wood stove/stone mantle in the great room.

Just an 8-minute drive across the peninsula to Lion's Head for shopping, groceries, LCBO, hardware, restaurants, pubs, local hospital, Chiropractor, Yoga studio, Massage therapy, and the famous Lion's Head marina and lighthouse.

For the hikers and nature enthusiasts, take the breathtaking Lion's Head loop lookout trail, part of the Bruce trail along the Niagara escarpment. Stand on the edge of the spine-tingling cliff overlooking the turquoise waters of Georgian Bay. Explore hundreds of km of passive or rugged nature trails all within a 15 minute drive.

Take a 25-minute drive north to the nautical town of Tobermory, where you can catch the ferry to Manitoulin Island, take a glass bottom boat tour to see the many shipwrecks, or a peaceful trip to the unique Flower Pot Island. If scuba diving is your passion, there is no better place to explore.

Famous groundhog, "Wiarton Willie" would love to see you, and his shadow, in the pretty town of Wiarton on beautiful Colpoy's Bay. Just a 30-minute drive south, Wiarton is popular for its many festivals and some unique gift shops and antiques. Book a boat tour, or fishing excursion at the local Wiarton marina.

Avid fisherman will be more than pleased to know there is a local boat launch around the corner from the Log Home, with access to some of the best fishing on Lake Huron. GOLFERS! The renowned "Cobble Beach" Golf Club is a 40-minute drive.

If you are into mountain biking, your adrenaline will be charged up at the Bruce Peninsula MTB park or Lindsay tract trails, both within 15-20 minutes.

Your hosts, Colin and Kim, hope that you have an amazing and memorable experience at "Wishbone Retreat...the best kept secret in Northern Ontario".
