The present owner's grandparents built Mowat Lodge at Canoe Lake, which was a renowned haven for Beatty and many Group of Seven artists.

Beatty was a friend of Tom Thomson’s, and his influence can clearly be seen in Beatty’s work such as in this fine painting. Thomson’s enthusiasm for Algonquin Park fired the interest of other artists and in March of 1914 Beatty arrived with J.E.H. MacDonald to join A.Y. Jackson at Mowat Lodge, with Tom Thomson following in April.
