At Painted Chairs, check-in starts early @11am. This cabin is a unique, one-of-a-kind Wood and Stone Riverside cottage w/Loft perched atop the Canadian Shield along the beautiful Gull River. Come experience upgraded cottage ambience, comfort, relaxation and play. There are plenty of water toys to play, fish and explore with. If it’s raining outside, enjoy the unique crafted beauty inside. All the Wood and Stone with architectural detail throughout creates a warm inviting Cabin In the Woods. SPECIAL NOTE:The only reason I do not have “Super Host” status is because I only rent 1 summer month in the year. Airbnb requires something like a minimum of 10 bookings yearly to be qualified for Superhost status. The reviews say it all! Painted Chairs is an inviting, comfortable, spacious Riverside cabin along the gently flowing Gull River. A calming, natural place to unwind and relax...Inside the cottage or on the dock fishing or playing in the water with a variety of Water Toys or by the Fire-pit roasting marshmallows after a day of hiking on the Ganaraska Trail. Or relax on the fully furnished “air-conditioned” outdoor Cedar Deck w/Fire-Table There is also unlimited Wifi and a Bose Bluetooth Speaker. -This year we added an outdoor grill for cooking your morning breakfasts outside with nature.
