LAKE INFORMATION:
Considered one of the cleanest lakes in Ontario; Bay Lake is a limestone-based lake which means the water is clear and allows you to see down 10-15 feet on a sunny day. Fed by natural springs, bordered by a few natural wetlands, this lake is home to a large variey of mammals, birds, reptiles and fish. There are a few places on this lake where there is more solitude and you will often see and hear ducks, geese, a beaver, turtles - plus this lake is famous for having a nesting pair of loons returning each year! (Keep a distance so you don't stress them). Deer also frequent the road to this cottage, so keep watch for them.
AREA INFORMATION: This cottage is located just 10 minutes from the town of Bancroft. The town has many things to offer, including rockhounding - Bancroft is known as the 'Mineral Capital of Canada' and has the largest variety of rocks and minerals in Canada, or some argue - the world! The Rockhoud Gemboree held the long weekend in August draws collectors from all over the world. The QHCNorthHastings hospital in Bancroft has a small emergency department and is about 11 minutes from this cottage. We have 2 grocery stores (No Frills and Foodland) and many unique gift and specialty stores. There is a good variety of Family restuarants and fast food to choose from - oh yes and 2 Tim Hortons' also. Enjoy a variety of hiking trails and a scenic lookout right in Bancroft!

"It was absolutely perfect for my son and I. The cottage and Bunky were clean and just enough space! What an amazing lake for swimming, floating, and boating. The ducks that come to visit for snacks made for extra entertainment! The location is perfect for making runs to town. This is my second time staying and I’m looking forward to returning!

"We come back every year to this beautiful place. The waters are crystal clear and the cottage has everything you need for a perfect getaway! Fishing is a highlight every week for the kids and spotting wide life like turtles, blue herons, loons, crayfish, and so much more! We can’t wait until next year!
