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. Thereâs 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. Thereâs 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.
