A small, family-run cottage resort and kayak rental on Cameron Lake, about 10 minutes from Tobermory on the Bruce Peninsula. Calm, shallow water and a quiet setting suit families; the cabins are simple.
Cedar Grove Cottages sits on a sheltered part of Cameron Lake, a short drive from Tobermory and across the water from Bruce Peninsula National Park. Guests describe a quiet, clean spot away from the crowds at the Grotto and Singing Sands, with a small sandy beach, a playground and a lake-view deck on the cottages.
The lake is a big draw for families. Reviewers mention a very shallow, warm shoreline that's good for young children, and dock fishing. Kayak rentals are open to day visitors too, and paddlers praise friendly staff and the chance to explore the whole lake, stop on national park shoreline, or follow a lily-pad creek through to Cypress Lake.
The cottages are described as small but cozy, clean and comfortable, and several guests call the stay affordable and dog-friendly. The owner's family and staff are warmly regarded, down to the resident dog.
Cabins are basic, though. A recent guest found the stove burners small, the coffee maker not working and nowhere to dry dishes or hang wet towels, and ended up cooking on the barbecue. Another visitor arrived during posted hours to find the rental shop closed and got no reply by call or text, so contact them ahead of a day rental.
