You will notice that we have a couple of barn board signs hung in the cottage by the fireplace. These are signs that were made by Teena McKitchen. I have shared her page for those that may have an interest in getting one of these signs from her or having one custom made.
Chris and Teena have teamed up to create magnificent rustic benches with a touch of personality.

If you are traveling to or from the Black Donald Oasis, consider stopping at the Spud Box. It is located in Kaladar at the intersection of Hwy 7 and Hwy 41. You can call ahead and place your order (recommended as they are generally very busy)...1-613-336-1660... they have great fries, awesome burgers, fantastic pulled pork poutine and an incredible Philly Cheese Steak. The portions are very generous. They only accept cash just FYI (there is a bank machine across the road at the gas bar in case you forget)
