2 Bedroom House in Britt

Britt is the Hidden Gem of Georgian Bay, easily accessible but thankfully not yet commercialized. A small community of 300 odd friendly folks, it's easily accessible, incredibly rustic, and soothing serene. In summers, make your way to the Ice Cream parlor run by a local serving remarkable treats for the palate or rent a canoe and make your way to Georgian Bay. In winters, rent a shack and go ice fishing in the beautiful Magnetawan.
Spacious and cozy, a bright yellow door welcomes you to the cottage and the soothing sound of flowing water lulls you to sleep. Modern amenities make your stay comfortable while the feeling of being away from it persists, especially at night. With two bedrooms and two bathrooms, there's ample room to enjoy board games on the gaming table, sip your morning coffee in the sunroom, or stargaze on clear nights. There are two queen beds and a bunk bed, making it ideal for four adults and two children or five adults and one child. There’s a dock for your boat, if needed. During your stay you can watch beavers and ducks or hear loons, wave to boats making their way to Georgian Bay, or go swimming in the river. The choice is yours.
In summer, enjoy fishing, boating, and swimming or rent a boat or a canoe and explore. Or sit on the swing and enjoy the breeze. Some of the best fishing includes Small Mouth Bass, Bass, Pike, Perch, Walleye, Catfish, Smelt, Speckle Trout and many more. When winter arrives, the rivers freeze and let you enjoy activities like sledding, shoeing, cross-country skiing, skating, ice fishing and more. On summer weekends, hike across the bridge and enjoy music and karaoke nights at The Happen Inn. Please note, this is a village in unorganized territory, not yet inundated by tourists, so not every city amenity is available. There’s one shop for groceries, basics, and booze, and water comes from a drilled well. There is no trash collection, so we ask guests to carry away their garbage and recyclables, but if this is difficult, we always help with other options.
Fire extinguishers are available in the Sunroom and the Kitchen (under the sink) and a basic First Aid kit is located inside the Cedar bathroom vanity.

Summary: We were on a fishing trip in the Key River area and stayed at Tranquility on the River for 4 nights. There was excellent parking for 1 boat and trailer with a nearby receptacle so we could charge our boat at night. The cottage was clean. The linens provided were also clean. The cottage is 2min from a local corner store which has liquor, beer and a small grocery store in case you need anything. The closest boat launch is also 2 min away. The cottage does not have outdoor furniture so bring yourvown folding chairs if you wish to sit out on the deck or dock. We would definitely stay here again.

Summary: 2 Girlfriends and I came for the week to kayak. What a perfect location to use as a base to launch from nearby beach to explore Georgian Bay or travel up the highway to explore the French River. Sue, the host, was super friendly and quick to respond from time of booking 4 months ago to making sure we were taken care of when we arrived. The cottage is quaint, the beds are super comfortable, the 2 bathrooms have showers which made it easy for everyone to get ready quickly for the day of kayaking and exploring the area.

Summary: My husband and I had a great time on our extended weekend stay here. The house was clean and well equipped, with lots of useful information in the manual/welcome book. It was nice to be on the river and see and hear the birds. It was also great to be a short drive from different parks and trails. We appreciated Sue’s quick response when we asked her a question the first morning. It was a very nice stay.

Summary: We enjoyed the stay as whole. The cottage was clean and on the Still River bank. We have seen lots of birds and an otter every day. It was the hottest days of the year, the windows needed open in the night. The water is non-potable water. We brought our own bottled water. The location is easy to find.
