Welcome to your peaceful family retreat on beautiful Stoney Lake! The cottage is located in a quiet bay across from Fairy Lake Island and a few paddle strokes away from the Lost Channel where you can enjoy wildlife and search for the hidden journal. Enjoy the extensive views of the lake from the dining room or living room while keeping an eye out for the osprey and herons. The cottage comes equipped with the comforts of a newly renovated kitchen (2020) and dining room (2021). There is a cozy wood stove if it gets chilly.

The sandy waterfront provides easy entry into the water for swimming. The large grassy lot is perfect for games and perhaps even jumping on the trampoline. Enjoy private dining on the large side deck followed by roasting marshmallows around the fire pit overlooking the bay. There is a good mix of sun and shade throughout the day.

There are 3 kayaks, a canoe, and a stand up paddleboard available for exploring the surrounding area. Along with good fishing in the bay and nearby areas.
