If you consider The Rustic Cabin to be just a bit too rustic for you, you might want to consider The Barber's Cottage on Lake Bernard in Sundridge, Ontario. The front section used to be the barber's shop in Sundridge and sometime in the 50s it was hauled out of town and placed on this little lot. There are vacant lots both sides of the cottage. It is actually on a laneway not a road and there is a train track behind it which is used about 3 times a day.This spring it will be totally renovated and hopefully be available for rent by mid June, 2012. New windows, flooring, kitchen, panelling, bathroom etc. etc. You can follow the progress of the renos at http://www.thebarberscottage.blogspot.com .
Lake Bernard is the largest fresh water lake in the world without an island. The beach area is sandy and shallow for a long distance out from the shore. The maximum depth is 48 meters. Fishing is good for rainbow trout, white fish, brook trout and lake trout. It is a fairly large lake, with a perimeter of about 23 km.
The cottage will rent for $125 a night and $800 a week. To make a reservation contact me at sheekey@bell.net .
