Hi Guy's and Gal's
Getting a jump start on the summer cottage getaway.
We are looking for a Cottage to host the event. Here is what we would like
Date: Last week Aug (Monday to Sunday) 21-27th
***EDIT***
Location: North of Toronto, South of Parry Sound, East of Owensound, West of Lindsey
Size: 5 Bedroom Min. Big Cottage, 2 Bathrooms, Semi-Private/Private. Big outdoor Lawn (for tents id needed),
Proximity: Close to City, but away from Urban (Ie no Neighbours). Pref Close to a Beach.
PM/msn me if you happen to have a place that Might work. Im trying to set it up so its a TA's private cottage rather then rental that way it will be a lot cheeper.

| I'm thinking one of the ontario provincial parks, which have group camping areas might work. There are even some campgrounds that have beachside campground areas. Most of these have power outlets for a small fee.... the thing is... this would imply "roughing it" more than in a cottage. |

Seems like a good idea but they have noise restrictions... |

A provincial park would not allow such a party to happen.

Going on the camping idea, I went to Whitesands (sauble beach) for Canada day long weekend last year. This is a private campground, which has absolutely no noise restrictions, and gets to be very rowdy (the weekend I was there anyways). It does not have water taps or set campsites, just find a place to park & set up camp. You can set up in what is basically a grass field, which can accomodate hundreds if not thousands of people.. OR you can chose to set up in a secluded site which is surrounded by trees (like a regular provincial park). Everything is first come, first serve.. I think it would be a great place for a TOTA event.

5-10 minute drive to Sauble beach.
I might have a few pics of the campground itself for an idea of what it looks like. Ill post later. |

Our site:

It really isnt so bad camping in a big feild, if your really just there to party, what do you need a bunch of trees for anyways. The downside is that it costs $1 for a shower which lasts 3-4 mins. On a busy weekend I dont think I ever waited to shower either, nobody seems to take a long time if you gotta pay for it. |
