We are considered a unique Cottage and Country Décor,and antiques store. We have remodeled to keep the 'Rustic charm' of the existing business, Beaverton Metal Works, which has been in business for over 50 years. You really have to stop in to appreciate the atmosphere. Customers can't believe how wonderful it is when they walk through the front door. We have great products made on the premises as well. Please stop in to take a browse and just to say hello!

Great 18 hole golf course about 90 minutes north of Toronto. Spend time at your cottage but spend time enjoying this gorgeous old course just up the road from Lake Simcoe and the quaint little town of Beaverton, too. Lined with cedars it will challenge the best golfers and yet the long back 9 is forgiving enough to be fun for the weekend golfer. They run great specials for pay as you play and members are cordial if you stop in the pro shop or have a bite at the club house.

The Old Stone Church, located between Beaverton and Argyle in Ontario, is recognized officially as a National Treasure. Begun in 1840, it fell victim to the Great Presbyterian Disruption of 1844 when Presbyterians across British North America divided into two rather hostile camps, the reformist Knox group, and the opposing St Andrews contingent. Finally, in the 1850s, the interior pine pews, complete with doors aisle side, were in place. Congregants walked or rode long distances to hear services in Gaelic and English. Hymns were sung unaccompanied by organ or piano. Eventually the congregation moved into a new church in Beaverton, using The Old Stone Church on special occasions. About 20 years ago, the building was carefully restored to its 1840 splendid simplicity (though the heritage architect from Toronto must have supposed that Robertson screws date from the 1840s!). Today it's used for weddings, funerals, a sunrise service each Easter Sunday, and for four summer services. It's worth a visit.

Reviewed By Rae F - Argyle Ontario, near Toronto
This museum and archives, located in Beaverton, has been collecting documents and photographs, most of them covering the people and landscape of the town of Beaverton, located on the east side of Lake Simcoe in Ontario, as well as the townships of Eldon and Thorah, all of which were settled at the same time by predominantly Scots highlanders both Roman Catholic and Presbyterian. As well as the documents and photos, any visitor should spend some time in the three buildings -- an authentic log settlers home, a brick house representing post-settlement days, and a rare stone jail dating to the 1840s. For information about events and opening times, please check the website.
