PARADISE FOUND - YOUR OWN PRIVATE ISLAND ON SPARROW LAKE! Imagine summers spent surrounded by water, spectacular sunsets and the people who matter most. Ernest Island is a truly special opportunity to own an entire private island on beautiful Sparrow Lake, offering the perfect setting for unforgettable family memories and a genuine escape from the everyday. Family-owned for decades, this unique property features three separate and private cabins, each with two bedrooms, comfortable living spaces and endless lake views. The thoughtful layout makes it ideal for extended family and guests, giving everyone their own space while still bringing everyone together in one extraordinary setting. The island's privacy, natural topography and stunning waterfront create countless opportunities to relax and disconnect. Enjoy massive sunset views, find your own favourite spot along the shoreline, gather around the firepit, or spend the day on the water. With two separate docking areas, easy boat access and a short ride to nearby marinas and landings, getting to and from the island is wonderfully convenient. Sparrow Lake is part of the Trent-Severn Waterway, offering boat access toward Georgian Bay, Lake Couchiching, Lake Simcoe and beyond - making this an exceptional base for exploring the surrounding waterways. The property is also exceptionally well equipped for island living, with multiple outbuildings providing plenty of storage, along with gardening areas, a firepit and numerous spaces to simply enjoy the outdoors. For those looking to make this summer the one they finally make the move, Ernest Island is now offered at a newly reduced price as part of an end-of-season opportunity. A rare chance to step into a property like this - without waiting for another season. Come experience Ernest Island for yourself and discover why some places are more than a cottage - they become part of the family story.
