LOON LODGE ON MILLER LAKE -- BRUCE PENINSULA, ONTARIO

Wake up to loons calling across glassy Miller Lake. Step onto your wraparound deck, coffee in hand, and watch the morning mist rise off the water as the Bruce Peninsula comes alive around you. This is Loon Lodge -- a stunning 2,000 square foot, two-level waterfront cottage on the shores of Miller Lake, and your perfect Ontario summer escape.

Private waterfront dock. Lakeside fire pit. Wraparound deck with glass railings and unobstructed lake views. Canoe included. Four bedrooms. Two bathrooms. Two spacious living areas. All of it steps from the water, minutes from Tobermory and Bruce Peninsula National Park.


WHY GUESTS LOVE LOON LODGE

Loon Lodge sits right at the water's edge on one of the most beautiful and peaceful lakes on the Bruce Peninsula. The cottage is designed around the view -- dramatic floor-to-ceiling picture windows flood every room with natural light and frame breathtaking panoramas of Miller Lake from both levels. Whether you are cooking breakfast, relaxing in one of the two living areas, or sitting at the dining table for an evening meal, the lake is always right there with you.

The location is extraordinary. Minutes from Tobermory, Bruce Peninsula National Park, the Bruce Trail, Fathom Five National Marine Park, and Lion's Head -- all while enjoying the peace and privacy of a true lakeside retreat.


THE COTTAGE

Loon Lodge is a beautifully appointed two-level, 2,000 square foot waterfront cottage on a large, shaded, grassy lot at the water's edge. The upper level features the main living area, kitchen, dining area, two bedrooms, and full bathroom -- all with stunning lake views. The lower level offers two additional bedrooms, full bathroom, second living area, and direct walkout access to the lower deck and waterfront.


SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

Bedroom 1 - Upper Level: Bright and comfortable with beautiful natural light and a relaxing cottage atmosphere with Queen bed.

Bedroom 2 - Upper Level: Cozy with Full bed.

Bedroom 3 - Lower Level: Peaceful and spacious with Queen bed. Easy access to the waterfront and dock.

Bedroom 4 - Lower Level: A cozy fourth bedroom with two twin beds, making Loon Lodge ideal for larger families or groups.

All bedrooms are furnished with two pillows per bed with hypo-allergenic pillow covers and mattress pads. Linens are available for rent.


BATHROOMS

Two full bathrooms with walk-in shower -- one on each level -- comfortably accommodate your group throughout your stay with no morning bottlenecks before a big day of adventure.


TWO LIVING AREAS

Upper Level Living Room: The heart of the cottage. A warm gathering space surrounded by large picture windows with stunning lake views. Perfect for morning coffee, evening wine, board games on a rainy afternoon, or simply watching the loons drift past on the water below.

Lower Level Living Room: A second comfortable retreat with TV and direct walkout access to the lower deck and waterfront. Ideal for kids who want their own space, or simply extra room when the whole group is together.


KITCHEN AND DINING

The fully equipped kitchen has every pot, pan, dish, and utensil you need. The dining area sits beside panoramic windows overlooking Miller Lake -- making every meal a scenic experience. When the weather is perfect, take everything outside to the wraparound deck for dining with the lake as your backdrop.


THE WRAPAROUND DECK WITH GLASS RAILINGS

The large wraparound deck with glass railings is one of the most loved features of Loon Lodge. The glass railings keep views completely unobstructed from every seat -- nothing between you and that incredible panorama of lake, sky, and forest. Generously sized with room for outdoor dining and lounging. It wraps around the cottage giving different vantage points throughout the day. This is where morning coffees are savoured, evening drinks stretch late into the night, and the most memorable cottage conversations happen.


THE WATERFRONT AND DOCK

A private dock provides direct access to Miller Lake for swimming and boating. The shoreline features a rocky edge with a sandy bottom -- wonderful for swimming off the dock. Water is very shallow close to shore at 1 to 3 feet, making it safe for families with young children.

The dock accommodates canoes, kayaks, small sailboats, and jet skis. Small motorized boats are possible but guests should be mindful of very shallow water and rocks near shore -- dock at your own risk.

A canoe is included with your rental. Morning paddles on a glassy lake with mist still rising off the water are among the most magical experiences the Bruce Peninsula has to offer -- available every morning right from your own dock.


THE LAKESIDE FIRE PIT

As the sun goes down and stars appear over the Bruce Peninsula, gather around the lakeside fire pit steps from the water's edge. Roast marshmallows, share stories, and watch the flames reflect on the still lake. Listen to the loons call across the water in the darkness. There is nothing more quintessentially Canadian cottage than a lakeside fire under a sky full of stars -- and at Loon Lodge it is yours every evening.


WALKING DISTANCE TO SUMMER HOUSE PARK

Within walking distance of Summer House Park, offering boat rentals to explore Miller Lake by motorboat, a convenience store for forgotten essentials, an ice cream and coffee shop for your daily cottage ritual, and a restaurant and pizza shop for days when you want some time off from cooking.

Tobermory is minutes away -- explore the turquoise waters and famous shipwrecks of Fathom Five National Marine Park, take a glass-bottom boat tour, or browse the charming harbour shops and restaurants.
