Although tropical islands are beautiful, if you are looking for space consider looking North. Canada, is home to some beautiful islands and their reasonable prices mean that potential island owners get a lot of bang for their buck. One of my favorite properties is Star Island, an 1,100 acre island in Ontario.

The island features hills and valleys, dramatic cliffs with spectacular overlooks, many exposed rock outcroppings and an untouched forest of old growth timber. Black Spruce, White Spruce, Cedar, Poplar and Birch are the predominant tree species on the island. In the center of the island is a small lake hidden away and stocked with Brook Trout.

The island has been improved with 10 kilometers of marked hiking trails. The island is home to healthy populations of moose, black bear, lynx, foxes, wolves, ruffed grouse, eagles, hawks and many other forms of wildlife. The waters surrounding Star Island are well known for great Northern Pike and Pickerel fishing. Totally unspoiled and natural; owning Star Island is like owning your own National Park.

The island is available for just #1.5M. For more information visit Private Islands Online.
