By the Bay on Drummond Island
This cozy 3-bedroom, 2-bath cottage comfortably sleeps up to 8 guests and is perfectly situated on the north side of Drummond Island, just off popular Tourist Road. It’s an ideal home base for fishing, trail riding, and easy access to local shops and restaurants.
Inside, knotty pine finishes create that classic “Up North” feel—warm, inviting, and relaxed. Step out onto the deck, just a few strides from the water’s edge, and take in wide-open views of Potagannissing Bay, where boats drift by and ducks glide across the shoreline.
As the day winds down, gather around the waterfront fire pit, just steps from the bay, and soak in the sunset. Two kayaks are available for exploring, along with a shared dock (best suited for small aluminum fishing boats), plus a variety of amenities designed to make your stay easy and memorable.

Summer getaway
Absolutely beautiful spot, the views of the islands and bay out front were spectacular. Close to everything which was nice. Beautiful little cabin with good parking. Couldn’t have asked for a better spot to stay. I highly recommend this place.
