Stonehenge is tucked into the peaceful Dorcas Bay community, just minutes from the warm, shallow shores of Singing Sands Beach — a family favourite for swimming, sandcastle building, and unforgettable sunsets. While the setting offers classic cottage-country tranquility, Stonehenge is also a gateway to some of Ontario’s most celebrated natural attractions.
A short drive brings you to Bruce Peninsula National Park, home to the world-famous Grotto, turquoise waters, and dramatic cliffs carved by time. You’re even closer to these wonders than the harbour village of Tobermory itself — making Stonehenge an ideal base for adventure.
Nearby Tobermory is a vibrant lakeside town known for its quaint charm, bustling harbor, and access to the Bruce Trail and Fathom Five National Marine Park. Don’t miss a boat tour to Flowerpot Island, explore shipwrecks beneath crystal-clear waters, or stroll the shops and cafés that line the waterfront.
As we gather on this land, we honour the traditional Territory of the Anishinabek Nation — the People of the Three Fires: Ojibway, Odawa, and Pottawatomie. We offer gratitude to the Chippewas of Saugeen and the Chippewas of Nawash, together known as the Saugeen Ojibway Nation, who have long stewarded the beauty of this place.
Stonehenge is more than a cottage — it’s your front door to the timeless wonder of the Bruce Peninsula.
