Quiet cottage road with several family cottages that date back to the 1960’s when the road was cut by the farmer that owned the land divided up the waterfront into buildable lots.

Have you ever wondered about why the waters of Georgian Bay can appear to take on a beautiful aqua colour? It's a product of light refracting through calcite in the water.
Calcite comes from the dolostone that makes up the escarpment. Rainfall events (rain is naturally slightly acidic) or water agitating surrounding rocks can cause calcium carbonate to leech from the stone or other calcium-rich compounds, such as marl, and crystallize in the lake water, becoming calcite. These crystals double-refract the light (also called birefringence), creating the beautiful hue that our eyes see.
This is the second post of a series about the geology of the Niagara Escarpment.

Occupancy: 12 People Maximum

The cottage is well equipped for family gatherings. The main floor has 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms as well as an open dining / living room over looking a wall of windows to the water. From the Dining and sunroom you can access the main wood deck that has seating areas throughout. Step off the deck onto a 600 sq foot stone patio deck chairs, umbrellas and a firepit area and expansive views of the Georgian Bay.

The second floor of cottage has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

Amenities: Gas Grill, Charcoal Grill, 2 refrigerators, Fire Pit

Fire pit - please review current open fire rules on the peninsula as they change throughout the season.

There are 2 gas Fireplaces inside the home one in the sunroom and one in the living room.

Important Notes:

(1) You'll want to bring your water shoes as the bottom of the Bay is flat rock and can be slippery. The Bay can be fairly cold but warms up mid July. We also suggest hiking boots and a walking stick if you're planning on doing any of the more advanced trails such as Halfway Log Dump.
(2) The Michael resides on a 'No Winter Access' road, meaning from Oct 15 to Easter Weekend every year the road is not municipally maintained and is the responsibility of the local Rush Cove community to upkeep. Although we do have an enclosed 'Side By Side' ATV to help shuttle guests from the Rush Cove parking area, a Four Wheel Drive vehicle during inclement winter specifically from late November until mid-March is highly recommended. We ask that you plan your travel well in advance of travelling to Rush Cove during this time and connect with your Guest Concierge to help with travel planning.
