GIL-MAR COTTAGE RESORT
Housekeeping cottages on Sturgeon Lake, since 1930.Gil-Mar made the south shore of Sturgeon Lake a go-to destination in the 1930’s. That’s when the Greenhurst Pavilion dance floor thundered at night and the Sturgeon Point regatta made the day genteel.
Float planes touched down to refuel at Gil-Mar’s red gas pump, and generations of families listened to loons bring in the evening.
90 years later, Gil-Mar continues its legacy with some of the coziest cottages on Sturgeon Lake. Come! Watch gorgeous sunsets slip into the water, and add your memories to Gil-Mar’s laid back history.
Our spacious property has century-old towering cedars, multiple docks, a small beach, a large pool, and volleyball and shuffleboard courts.
Jump off the dock, cast out your line, or sit in the shade with a beverage. A lakeside bonfire pit is ready for your songs, marshmallows & conversation.
Gil-Mar is not luxurious. These are not Muskoka condos! Gil-Mar is rural Ontario rustic at its best.
Our basic housekeeping cottages give you a place to escape from the hectic, fast-pace of everyday life.
Each rustic cottage comes with fridge, stove, BBQ, and full kitchen, including pots, pans, and dishes—but it’s BYOL (bring your own linens).
There’s no laundry on site. There’s no TVs or AC or phones either—hallelujah, right? Just what you need for a relaxing week that reintroduces you to nature and serenity.
We recommend bringing fans if the forecast is hot. And don’t forget a well-loved deck of cards, your trusty rod, grandad’s lucky lures, and a slow-way-down-to-lounge mentality.
