Drove friend north, drove some great roads, stopped at a friend’s cottage (& helped finish installing some solar panels), went on pontoon boat.
There was no Wifi or Cell Phone signal at his cottage, it’s also 100% of grid.
His 2007 Magnum R/T. He also has 2009 Cobalt SS Sedan. His cottage is 1000sq-ft on 75 acres of land.
North of Parry Sound is the most boring drive ever. Stopping for gas in Pointe au Baril was my first time at full serve station, it felt weird.

“North of Parry Sound is the most boring drive ever.”
Wrong. Drive through the prairies and get back to me on that.

When he was youth pastor one of his youth was going to school for architecture, & he desgined it as a project. He says his wife & 2 kids are comfortable in it.
He built it for $15k.

My grandfather designed mine and he and my father built it. In the early 70s I think my father spent $2000.00 building it. The floors are built from pallet boards my grandfather salvaged the roof beams are trees cut down on the lot to build the structure. The framing lumber is hemlock. At the time it was very cheap. Pine boards for the roof and siding. It is not a year round place. We added power and indoor plumbing in 1993.

Were it is no building permit is required, so he had real 2"x4"’s milled (1/3rd of the cost of pressure treated 2x4's), tongue & groove 1"x6" for the interior. The outside is just painted ply-wood.
