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! For those who need to work while staying at the CREW cabin, there is a desk set up for you as well.



Lower Level - Work Area

For those who need a space to work, you will find a large desk, screen and mouse pad. The wifi connection is



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!

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
