Serenity, Simplicity and Stone

This is a tiny cottage in a sleepy little hollow that opens onto the Georgian Bay. Inside, each stone was carefully chosen and the woodwork was built, piece by piece, by two craftsmen who are highly skilled and passionate about repurposing. It's an art that will leave you in awe; especially if you're worried about climate crisis. The coat hangers are upcycled 100-year-old railway spikes! If you're looking for luxury you will be disappointed but if you're a minimalist you're going to love it.

The cottage is situated on a well-maintained lawn, framed by trees, with a spacious deck accessible via a stone pathway. Colorful kayaks and a paddle boat are visible by the water, and the sky displays a warm sunset with varying shades of orange and purple.
