We offer two cottages (Bayside-Pet Friendly & Tremblay-Not pet friendly).  Each cottage is a 3-bedroom (sleeps up to 8 people) with full bathroom, kitchen, living room, and a million dollar view of Talon Lake.

These cottages are designated as a non-smoking living space to alleviate the accumulation of dust, odours and possible allergic reactions, no smoking is allowed in either cottage.

During the winter months the road is maintained.  While we cannot control the weather, our cottages are normally accessible 365 days a year.  Don’t let the cold detour you from renting with us this winter.  Each cottage is fully winterized, electrically heated and features a small fireplace for your enjoyment.

Own a small boat?  There is a rudimentary boat launch not far from our cottages (just a few meters down the road).  This launch is not maintained and is considered “use at your own risk”.  Optionally, there is a public launch on the far end of Lake Talon. To access it, you’ll have to drive to Bonfield (30km East of North Bay) on Highway 17 East.

The public launch is located 2km from the highway on Talon Lake Road.  Trailer parking and overnight stays are prohibited at the public launch.  Please follow the signage.

IMPORTANT:  We are not responsible for the launches, their accessibility or their condition.   We recommend you do some light reconnaissance before bring any watercraft with you.

The campground are equipped with designated fire pits.  Only these fire pits (rings are provided) may be used to hold a campfire. Renters are responsible with bringing their own firewood and live trees are not to be cut down for firewood.

During dry seasons, it is the renter’s responsibility to know whether a fire ban is in effect. The North East Region hotline is 1-866-357-8422

If a fire ban is in effect, no outside burning is allowed. If rule disobeyed, renter is responsible for any fine.

Alternatively, Bayside cottage is designated “pet-friendly” and is the only cottage for those renting with pets.  Tremblay cottage is pet hair / dander free.  We empathize with our members who have pet allergies and have strictly designated Tremblay cottage as “pet free”.

Dogs are allowed in Bayside cottage only, and must be kept on a leash at all times.  It is your responsibility to clean up after your dog. Dogs are not to be left in the Bayside cottage unattended. Excessive barking will not be tolerated.

Spare BBQ tanks are locked in the propane cage (near the middle shed in the parking area).   Empty tanks are to be returned to the Fitness & Wellness Center.

We will refill the tank so the next renter can take it out to the cottage when they pick up their keys.  Should you run out during your stay, please refrain from refilling the tank yourself (bring the empty tank back to the Fitness & Wellness Centre).
