My dear Garson:

I just wanted to thank you so much for the use of Mellow Yellow. What a perfect spot! and we so enjoyed our stay in your beautiful home. We tried hard to leave it in the same pristine condition as it was upon our arrival. The cottage proved to be quite ideal for our large group and the Great Room was a perfect place for all that special family time. Dave the Chef did an outstanding job and it was a real treat to be able to ignore all the kitchen workings without having to actually leave the house. We have such happy memories of our 40th anniversary! Thank you Garson, and I hope that you will allow us to perhaps, rent Mellow Yellow again sometime and maybe the Mexican apartment too – a week in the middle of winter sounds very inviting. We will be in touch presently. With many grateful thanks. Cheers

Meg

Hi Garson,

Just want to let you know we had a wonderful week at your cottage. We found it very comfortable. My husband loved the layout and the decorating. We had many great meals and laughs around your beautiful harvest table. You should be very proud of Yellow Mellow. We had a great time tubing and the boat was fine for what we used it for. Jim and the kids took the boat fishing a couple of times. One night they came home with six fish which we had for dinner. Nothing like fresh fish. We would love the rent Mellow Yellow again next year. We all will be looking so forward to it. Thank you again. Sandra

Hi Garson,

Just thought I’d let you know that we had a terrific time at Mellow Yellow – the cottage is absolutely beautiful.
Since we had such a wonderful time, we’d like to take the cottage for a week again next summer if you are planning on renting.

Cheers, Nancy

Garson,
I wanted to pass on our absolute thanks for the renting of Mellow Yellow cottage.   It was very large and tastefully furnished.  It accommodated our two families extremely well.  The dock area to Gull Lake was terrific and the children loved using the pedal boat and canoe.  We canoed to Lily Bay on the advice of your neighbour and saw beavers, turtles, birds, and of course, lily pads.  In fact, an actual deer walked right by out front door one morning.  I assure you the long harvest table, screened in porch and BBQ came into great use.  Our family visiting from Europe says the cottage time was the best part of their visit to Canada.
I can wholeheartedly refer this cottage to anyone who wants to experience a perfect Muskoka vacation.  Many thanks.

Heritage Square & Carnegie Arts Centre

Heritage Square consists of the Gravenhurst Opera House, Gravenhurst Library, War Memorial, Bethune Statue and Carnegie Arts Centre. Carnegie Arts Centre formerly the Carnegie Library (circa 1923). Nineteen years in the making, Gravenhurst’s Carnegie Library finally opened on May 01, 1923. Andrew Carnegie, one of the mega-tycoons of the industrial age, allocated much of his wealth to the construction of libraries. Grants from his foundation went into the construction of 1,700 libraries in Ontario. Gravenhurst received $7,000 for building purposes. Described as ‘cottage’ style with the only distinguishing feature being a gable end over the door, this blueprint was only used in Gravenhurst, Glencoe and Stouffville. Carnegie Library was used as the public library until 1999. At that time, the library moved into a new facility and the Carnegie Library was turned into an Arts Centre. Future plans include development and presentation of a wide variety of music and arts with a Muskoka connection or theme. *Open Year Round * Accepts Group Tour Bookings * Free Parking * Nearby Restaurants & Gift Shops
