  1. Looking for a large sandbox with a lid (most likely would be the Step 2 Sandbox). Must be in excellent condition with no tears or cracks. Let me know if you have one that you would be happy to sell! Donna Nicol

  2. Large, new float. Never used. Durable material. Kind of a “Bop and Rock” kind of float, if that makes any sense! Meant for climbing on and “rocking” back and forth. It has handles all the way around for climbing and hanging on. Can also be used in a game of “chicken”. I inflated today to be sure that there were no leaks and it’s good to go for the summer. (No leaks). Asking $30. Pick up on Bob Lake, along Trellis Trail. I can text a photo for reference. Or, happy to trade for an excellent condition Step 2 sandbox with lid!

  6. Hi,

    We recently purchased a cottage on Bob Lake. We are over on Parlee’s Point and loving it.

    Among the long list of renovations, we need to put a new dock in the water in the spring. Our challenge is getting the dock into the water. The lot is too steep for a dock delivery, so we are looking for a kind-hearted neighbour that might be willing to let us coordinate delivery through their lake access, so we can float it across to our spot on the lake.

    We know it’s a lot to ask, but hoping we can come to some equitable arrangement. No fixed date at this time, we are just floating the idea (so to speak) so that we can put the order in for the dock to be built.

    If you would be open to letting us take delivery at your lake-accessible cottage, please reach out to me at vclavric@gmail.com.

    Best regards,
    Corinne Lavric

  27. Greetings…last fall we had a couple of nice inflatable floating loungers wash up at our dock. One is yellow in the shape and look of a slice of pizza and the other is clear but has different coloured baffles inside. Both are very nice quality. We are on a Parlees Point on the north side of the lake. I am guessing these loungers are from someone to the east of us. When we are there I will try to keep them at the dock. We have a beige/taupe coloured boathouse and our dock is made of grey plastic cubes…
