In the 1930's, Bill Coutts had a large two-storey houseboat built that accommodated 20 house guests plus guides and cooks. The boat was tied up around the entrance to Turtle Lake. Years later, this houseboat was dismantled and used as a cabin at Coutt's Camp's mainland location. #Tbt #throwbackthursday #ontariohistory #livethelakelife #snnf #nestorfalls #nwo #houseboats #vintage #houseboating
