About The CREW Cabin

The CREW cabin is a pet free cottage that is located on Stones Lake which is only a short drive to the village of Calabogie, Ontario.

Main Floor

You will walk into an open concept kitchen and living area with vaulted ceilings and large windows overlooking the lake. We offer a fully-equipped kitchen with all the amenities to help you feel right at home (a full list of the kitchen supplies is below). Appliances include a fridge/ freezer, stove, toaster, drip coffee maker, blender, kettle, microwave and dishwasher. The dining area looks out over the lake and seats 6 people comfortably. Both the kitchen and living room have glass doors that lead to the deck that spans the length of the entire cottage. Enjoy the large comfy couch in the main living room that allows for the perfect Netflix and Chill night as you cozy in to watch TV on the 55' TV. Right off the main living room is the main floor bathroom and master bedroom.

Bedrooms

The CREW cabin has three bedrooms, each bedroom has a queen size bed in it. Our cabin has a maximum capacity of 6 occupants. The master bedroom is located on the main floor, it has sliding glass doors leading to the porch, a queen size bed, bedside tables, and a dresser to store your belongings.

Bedroom 2 and 3 are located downstairs.

Lower Level - Entertainment Section

The walkout lower level has two bedrooms, a full bathroom and a second living room for the kids to escape to. In the living room, there is a second comfy couch, another 55" TV with Netflix, books, games. It is surely a space the kids can call their own!

Bathrooms

Both levels of the cottage have a full bathroom. Each bathroom has a toilet, sink, vanity and shower. Bath towels (one per guest) are provided. We ask that you bring your own beach towels.



Waterfront

We recommend entering the water from the end of the dock ONLY.

The lake has excellent fishing, especially if you're looking to catch some bass or pike. These can be caught right off the dock, make sure you have a fishing license! Remember to check out when the free family fishing weekends are! There is one kayak for your use, but remember to bring your own lifejackets!

A Perfectly Private & Welcoming Getaway

We so enjoyed this beautiful cabin with such a stellar view! The open concept design made it so easy to further enjoy our visit. Tanya was super responsive to any questions we had - we definitely look forward to booking in the future when back in Ontario!

2 day stay.

Went to do a 2 day track day at Calabogie motorsport park. The house was a few minutes from the track. The house is at the end of a dirt road and is very peaceful and relaxing. had a wonderful time.

A perfect escape

We recently had the pleasure of spending a week at an absolutely gorgeous modern cottage, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning view that greeted us – it was nothing short of breathtaking. The cottage itself was impeccably designed, blending modern comforts with a cozy, inviting atmosphere. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, from the stylish decor to the well-equipped kitchen. It was clear that the owners put a lot of love and care into maintaining this beautiful retreat. Speaking of the owners, they were simply wonderful. Super friendly and always available, they responded quickly to any questions we had, making sure our stay was as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Their warm hospitality made us feel right at home. What truly set this place apart was the tranquility. Nestled in a peaceful area, it was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We cherished the quiet moments, whether it was sipping coffee on the deck in the morning or stargazing at night with a glass of wine by the fire. We are already looking forward to booking this incredible cottage again in the future. It provided the perfect setting for a relaxing getaway, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommend!

Crew Cabin Christmas

This was the perfect place for our adult family to meet, coming in from various corners of the country. Six fit very comfortably with the downstairs a great living area for the young couples and the upstairs' open concept kitchen, dining, living area suitable for concurrent activity - cooking, board games, TV watching, or just sitting together catching up, The space is well turned out and such a quiet, country spot good for walking or watching the neighbours ice fish. :) A nice break from the city. Messages between the owners were friendly, timely, and hit that sweet spot of ensuring we were okay yet not too much. Checkin and out was simply, location close to the village for quick pickups. Highly recommend this location for a getaway and can only imagine how much fun it would also be in the summer.

Crew Cabin in winter.

The property &house are beautiful for a getaway.The only 2 critisms we had were the driveway access in the winter. Very steep &the road was icy. Salt &sand were provided &we availed. 👍 And also the was little or no closet space in the bedrooms for clothing; as our stay was only 2 nights we were not hindered greatly. All else was perfect &was certainly well outfitted & we would come again in the summer or fall. Bev &John
