If we were asked to describe the lodge’s philosophy to a guest, here is what we would say we have tried to achieve – you be the judge.
Humanity should not to be commoditised. In other words contrary to so much of or lives today, where we are numbers to be counted. You will never be a “number” in this beautiful place.
Peace and beauty are profound. We need both of these, much more than we allow ourselves to believe. At the lodge you will “hear” the quiet, see the stars in the water, sit on sloping granite that came here during the formation of Pangaea, the supercontinent and swim in truly beautiful fresh water.
Time is what we cannot replace. The Lodge at Pine Cove is designed in such a way as to put time on “your” agenda and not on ours. Nearly everything at the lodge is designed to allow you to enjoy your time, in the way that you want to. This is a place where time becomes abstract.
Respite is a word that means, “ a short period of relief……:” The lodge is respite and many people come here to find it. Beautifully designed private cottages that don’t intrude on others space, allowing you to fully relax.
Soft adventures – kayaking, canoeing, hiking, swimming, picnicking on islands, exploring this water system, are just some of the things to do here and get your internal clock reset to nature.
Elegance in our accommodation and victuals. Blending this with the natural world is what we have tried to achieve without destroying the feel of forest, water and wildness that is the Canadian Shield.
From time to time we will interest you with developments at the lodge - projects, competitions, the river & the environment.
