NON GUIDED
The French River offers wonderful paddling opportunities and for those who don’t want to paddle we offer tours on our lodge motor launch.
To take advantage of our knowledge of the river or if you are not an experienced canoeist or kayaker, you can hire one of our guides to accompany you for an hour, half-day or full-day outing. To arrange to have a guide help you and/or your family explore the river in this way, please contact us well before your journey. We will design an excursion that suits your interests and paddling expertise. You might see beaver dams, an eagle’s nest, soaring osprey or even white-tailed deer from your boat. You can stop to pick blueberries or cranberries in our favourite berry locations or to go for a swim in the river’s warm water.
Duration: by the hour, half day or day.
What our visitors think
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…….
Donriver, Canada
We spent our time kayaking, canoeing, hiking, playing cards, Pool, fishing, and for me…enjoying wine on our porch at sunset 🙂
Talschouts, Canada
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.
Ian Keith A, Canada
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.
