Activities run to swimming, hiking, boating, water taxi trips to great destinations on the French River, and all manner of quiet and personal activities. How about soaking in a large copper bathtub with a view of the water…….

We spent our time kayaking, canoeing, hiking, playing cards, Pool, fishing, and for me…enjoying wine on our porch at sunset 🙂

The naturalist in me was delighted with the sight of, a varying (snowshoe) hare leaping through the bush, ruffed grouse strutting and the sound of their drumming, wood frogs all along pond sides, an early painted turtle hauled out on a log, and bear paw-prints in the sand.

For a non-Canadian it was an awesome experience. Beautiful cabins in the woods (need to walk a bit to reach them right!), amazing views, nicely arranged, and tonnes of attractions: hiking, kayaking, swimming… Very nice staff too.

We had an absolutely delightful time and we were pleased to have found the exact getaway we were looking for. Alex, the boat ride was particularly memorable. It was a special thing to learn about the history of the French River itself and the evolution of the Lodge itself. The generous gifts were also greatly enjoyed - the hacksap jam was hurriedly consumed and the books eagerly read. The Lodge and the guest experience you have created are clearly unique and timeless. We hope to be back before long!
