How The Other Half Lives Larger – On My French Riviera!

A story of one of the North’s “French Riviera” Gems!

This is a past & present treasure!

As you meander down the long driveway, a sense of peace and calm takes over.

The Towering pine trees and old growth forest provides exclusive privacy!

We were once part of the French River’s Famous, Sand Beach Lodge!

It started out as a private camp for the wealthy Seagram Family, dating back to the 1930’s!

Then, It was transformed into a luxury, yet rustic fishing Resort for the public- drawing in people from far and wide.

 The Resort eventually was severed into multiple individual parcels and now what you see available for you today.

 You could own a piece of History!

This could be your family compound to make your own traditions & memories!

 Or we could be a done up for Rental Potential!?

These 5, self-contained structures, could bring in multiple revenue streams!

Situated on approximately 3.3 acres of land, on the most desirable section of the Lower French River with 275 approximate feet of Sandy Beach!
