About the host
Hosted by James & Adele Luehr
My Husband and I have 3 AMAZING Children and we live in a small farming community surrounded by friends and family. We have a little hobby farm where we raise and love our chickens and ducks. When we are not at The Rockhound, our family loves the outdoors and we enjoy camping during the summer months.

Why they chose this property
My husband James was taken in by his grandparents at a young age. His grandfather had built this home with his own hands and moved James and his brother up to Bancroft. We have so many great memories that we have created here. Understanding the importance of family and fellowship my husband and I purchased this beautiful property. We have continued to create memories with our children, family and friends. We enjoy sharing this peaceful getaway with others so they too can feel the comfort and joy that The Rockhound has brought our family for many years.
What makes this property unique
Beautiful view of the Lake. Close proximity to Bancroft and Haliburton. Silent Lake Provincial Park is steps away. Algonquin Park is approx. an hour by car. McGillivray Road is well maintained and plowed by the municipality. Good swimming, boating, cycling, hiking, canoeing, Fishing, x-country skiing and snowmobiling.
