99%
(54)
64km from Limestone Islands Provincial Park · 1 site · Lodging
Located in the area of Rosseau Ontario, this area is known for exceptional cottage experiences. A short 10-minute drive to many area lakes to explore and experiences offered in all seasons including fishing, and boating in Muskoka lakes in the summer, cranberry marsh experience in the fall, and snowshoeing, cross country skiing, biking in the winter- there is something for everyone to explore when staying in this area! Visit Seguin Township and Muskoka Township websites for full listings and details. There are two cabins now on the property, but one is brand new and private and not accessible- it will be vacant for your stay. There is also a private sauna, but is also not accessible. The cabin pictured is in the middle of a private 5-acre property across from Turtle Lake and spans turtle lake road, to Donnelly and Poke Road, so it’s easily defined by the roads around the land. There is no direct access to the lake, but there are many lakes and beaches within a short drive. There are also many quaint towns to visit, beautiful hiking trails to explore all nearby. The main floor has a pull-out double bed, and the loft has 2 sets of bunk beds, ideal for kids. The bathroom facility is a newly built very airy eco-outhouse - you will be pleasantly surprised! There is a sink to wash up, and an outdoor shower, but for now, only cold water is available. This an ideal family getaway or a romantic getaway, I look forward to hosting you!

Cranberry Camp

27km from Limestone Islands Provincial Park · 3 sites · Tents, RVs
Cranberry Camp is located 6 kms past the village of Pointe au Baril. It’s surrounded by Ontario native forest (the “bush”) and wetlands in the hinterlands of Georgian Bay. We are 3kms from Sturgeon bay Provincial Park (a nice beach!) and 3kms from the Bayfield Inlet public launch on Georgian Bay (visit the iconic pink rocks and windswept trees of Georgian Bay). We help people create healthy homes and buildings and sought fresh air and clean water to host workshops and retreats. The property has a small house, a guest lodge for retreats, 2 lovely and private recreational vehicles (a 24’ Jayco & a 27’ Cougar) as well as a tiny home. All spaces are scent-free, low VOC and no WiFi. Hipcamp sites are on hard-packed dirt/gravel on a driveway that runs parallel to the road in front of the former restaurant. There is a composting toilet. We love to host people getting away from the city or taking exploratory road trips. There is water access near here for canoes, kayaks and other boats. Our secondary highway (ON 529) is fairly quiet and decent for cycling. (It's very quietnorth of the ON529A turn-off!). In the spring and fall there is a nice trail through the woods.

Ahki House

52km from Limestone Islands Provincial Park · 1 site · Lodging
Escape the ordinary in your very own off-grid retreat surrounded by 11 acres of private woodland and rolling granite landscapes! Experience the true "JOMO" lifestyle (Joy of Missing Out) while you disconnect from your current routine + reconnect with nature. You'll be minutes away from surrounding lakes and trails, while perched on a granite rock at the edge of a forest in Ontario's wilderness - north of Muskoka. Off grid amenities include outdoor shower (summer months only) + wood fired sauna! Lake access is just a short drive away at the end of the road. Other Things to Note: Being an authentic off-grid cabin, there are some unconventional methods of doing things such as using a wood stove for heat, foot pump sink, ice cooler, heated rain harvest shower (summer months only) and a composting toilet. You will be doing all this in Ontario’s back country so it is best to be mindful and you may come across wild animals, and crawling critters so be prepared for some adventure! Off-grid living requires a little more work and care than a traditional cottage, however you can feel good knowing that you've invested in a low-carbon, eco-friendly getaway and hopefully you will gain some knowledge and improve your physical well-being from this experience – and if anything at all leave feeling fully relaxed and rejuvenated!
