Casa del Sole e della Luna · Tobermory, Lake Huron
The sun side of Casolena. The moon side of Casolena.
Kayaks off the limestone shore, deck dinners over turquoise water, and 250 feet of Lake Huron to yourselves. All of it twenty-five minutes from Tobermory.
A frozen bay, snow-laden cedars and one warm house glowing at the edge of it all. Inside: the fireplace, the record player, and the stars through the glass.
Home of the sun and the moon
One house, two skies.
Casolena takes its name from the Italian Casa del Sole e della Luna, home of the sun and the moon, and it lives up to both halves. Summer floods the sky windows with lake light until ten at night. Winter turns the same glass into a lantern over a frozen bay, and some nights the aurora shows up.
This site follows the calendar. Visit in July and you'll meet the sun side; in January, the moon side. Or flip the switch yourself. The house is worth seeing in both.
You're seeing Casolena in summer.You're seeing Casolena in winter.
Turquoise mornings, kayak afternoons, campfire nights.Amber windows, deep snow, the quietest sleep of your year.

Lake & sky windows
Weather is the theatre.The night puts on the show.
This is Cielo, the loft, our favourite view in the house. The angled glass follows the roofline, so the lake fills the lower panes and the sky takes the rest. Guests keep telling us the photos undersell it.
When the peninsula goes dark, the sky windows earn their name. Moonlight on the frozen bay, constellations over the ridge beam, and on the good nights, the aurora over the sunroom. That photo is real, taken from our driveway.

The booking rhythm
Summer runs on a calendar.Winter runs on a whim.
High-season weeks from June to October use fixed check-in days so the house is fully reset between stays. Next summer's calendar opens each December, and often fills six to eight months out.
Outside high season the calendar relaxes: long weekends, quiet mid-weeks, and December holidays that book early. If the dates show open, winter is yours.
Either way, request your dates and one of us confirms personally within 24 hours.
