More About Our Cottage

The cottage deck

Our renovated cottage includes new kitchen and appliances, new furniture and new picture windows. The large deck (shown here) is ideal for outside meals and provides a great view of the adjacent water. The cottage is on East Sampson Island, an island that is among many other islands in McGregor Bay making it ideal for boating.

McGregor Bay is connected to the larger waters of Georgian Bay allowing boat access to Little Current and Baie Fine among other areas of interest. The waters were charted in 1998 making travel in the area safe for first time visitors. Although your own boat is not absolutely necessary we highly recommend one in order to get the most out your holiday. We suggest using Navionics which is an excellent Marine GPS app. We send you a pre planned route file and brief instructions for downloading and using the app which is free for an initial period.

If guests would prefer to be guided in they can use the services of a water taxi from either marina. This will typically be a larger boat which can take much of the luggage and some passengers, which will also speed up the trip. This service is approx. $130. and should be booked from the Marina ahead of time.

Accommodation

The cottage has the following sleeping accommodations: One queen size bed in the main bedroom, one bunk over a double bed with additional pullout double trundle bed in the second bedroom. In the living room there is a queen size sofa-bed.

The new kitchen has a wall-mounted oven, electric cooktop, microwave oven and toaster. There is also a propane barbecue. Heat is available from electric baseboard heaters. Water is pumped to the cottage by electric pump. There is a large electric hot water tank. The drinking water is filtered with a ceramic filter. The cottage is serviced by a large septic system and has normal indoor plumbing. The TV has a DVD player and basic satellite service. There are games and playing cards.

There is a canoe supplied with the cottage. Remember to bring your fishing gear as fishing in the area is very good.

We provide basic cleaning materials and request you leave the cottage in a clean condition for the next renters. We request a $200 cleaning /security deposit which is refundable.
