Our cottage has its own dedicated well. The water in this region is 'hard water' (mineral rich). It does have a distinct taste, so we prefer to buy bottled water to drink. A water cooler is provided along with a spare jug for each stay. We will ensure there is a jug in use for each stay however, it is up to the guest to have these filled when needed. We participate in the Sobeys water jug exchange program (located in Kincardine). We use tap water for washing dishes and vegetables, etc, and bottled water for drinking, making tea, etc. This is a family cottage with a long history (built in the 1950s).

Other things to note The sunset! Joel and I are have been restoring and renovating the cottage since we took ownership in 2019. The old gal has needed some work in order to ensure she can be enjoyed for years to come. In 2020, we tore down and built a new shed. The shed stores outdoor supplies as well as garbage and recycling. In 2021, we did a major interior renovation, we redesigned the main floor layout, completed a new (and beautiful) bathroom, transforming from an old stall and pedestal sink to tub and spacious vanity, laid a knotty pine floor throughout, installed a heat and A/C unit for more comfort. The less fun things like electrical and insulation were updated too. In 2022, we are updated the living space windows and exterior doors, as well as putting on new siding (that matches the shed).
