A group of private islands in Ontario's Georgian Bay is on the market for $1.9 million.
Collectively known as Table Rock Islands, there are seven islands included in the sale.

Instead of one private island, why not have seven? Ontario's Table Rock Islands are on the market for 2.65 million Canadian dollars, or $1.9 million, and they come with a spaceship-like home.

Instead of one private island, why not have seven? Ontario's Table Rock Islands are on the market for 2.65 million Canadian dollars, or $1.9 million, and they come with a spaceship-like home.

In addition to the main island with the cottage, there are six smaller, undeveloped islands included in the sale.

Grierson decided to build his summer home on the biggest island of the cluster due to its level ground and sheltered harbor.
