Eildon Hall, Sibbald Point, Ontario


This old grand house lies in Sibbald Point Provincial Park. It also has neighbours like the log cabin and Castle Dangerous as it is now called. Eildon Hall is beautiful outside but it is really something special inside. The antique furniture, the grand stairway that leads upstairs and the thick log walls of the original section of the house are spectacular to view.

I think this house will last for generations to come.

History of the House

The house started out as a small log cabin and then Susan Sibbald decided to extend it and in its day it looked like a grand castle that leaped from the ground. Now it has been reduced in size and turned into a museum, but its beautiful architecture is still in tact. A picture of Napoleon's brother looks down at you from the grand stairway.
