My mom stayed at Stanton House when she was 10 yrs old and took my brother and I for 4 days when I was a teenager and he was 10. We had a wonderful time and the pay off is we were Stanton's!
We went up there when I was 10-16 back in the 1960s. Love the place. My parents would go up to Toronto for a dinner in the winter to reuite with friends they met . Marsha, loved you comments. We were there about the same time. I lived in Hamburg (Buffalo, NY) at the time. Did we meet. [email protected]
What great times we had at Stanton House, our family went there for years back in the 60's.It was a great place for families and friends.I had my first sea plane ride there and my brother loved to fish and they cooked your fish that you caught that day for dinner.Mom and I with other lady friends would go to Gravenhurst and Orillia and shop for Royal Albert tea cups and saucers. The old initiation at the bonfire was a fun time for the adults"OWATANASIAM".Thank you for such a wonderful bunch of memories!! Used to swim in Sparrow Lake ,Burr even in July!!The Stanton's were wonderful hosts and we always came with a big group from Ohio and had a great time! Simpler times and very restful!

We went to Stanton house for many years my parents celebrated their honeymoon there. And continued to group there with friends for many years. Once they had children they started taking my brother and sister up there when we were young. A couple of years after I was married we talked my parents and my brother and his family into going for old times sake. My son spent his first vacation there, he was 2 1/2 months old. We kept going until my dad passed away in 2000. Over the years many of my brothers friends would come up with us. Sometimes our group would 20 people. A lot of great memories. My kids still talk about it and they're 30 & 25 now. Have driven up to see how things have changed. Stayed at Bayview one fall nothing to compare. Hope you get the signatures you need. I am letting my brother know about this petition and hopefully he'll get all his friends and their kids to sign on
Spent so many summers here as a kid. It breaks my heart to think of this place being torn down. There is really nowhere else like it left on Sparrow Lake.

This is a lovely location and nice resort. I would like to see it continue as a resort as it has been a special place for me over the last 18 years. The employees are kind and helpful.
