With approximately 1100 islands, hauntingly beautiful Stoney Lake is natural, rugged beauty to perfection at the edge of The Canadian Shield.
FROM RESORT TO COTTAGE RETREAT
Located on Stoney Lake's majestic south shore, this exceptional lakefront property historically known as The Irwin Inn, has transitioned from a busy resort to a cottage retreat, The Irwin Cottage!
Owned and operated by the Irwin family since 1947, we have a long, and continuing history of hospitality!
At The Irwin Cottage, our unique lakeside accommodation, we are currently offering three, private lakefront guest suites for individual or group rental at the site of former Irwin Inn, an award winning, year round resort.
This transformation still provides the opportunity to experience Stoney Lake and all it has to offer, with the unprecedented luxury of literally being steps from the lake, backing to majestic trees, parkland, fields and woods.
With this expansive private setting on Irwin Road, our Stoney Lake location beckons you to take in the natural beauty, stunning views, sparkling water, all with a sense of serenity and relaxation!
Activities include canoeing, kayaking, swimming, fishing, boating, hiking, x-country skiing and skating.
Our 4 km of trails in our woods and fields are perfect for a nature hike and to visit our horses at the farm.
Paddle boards, canoes, kayaks, water trampoline, boat cruises, campfires are here for guest use.
Our property is pet friendly
When planned activities are just reading a book or admiring the beauty of Stoney Lake, relax on your private screened in porch and enjoy!
