ONTARIO, CANADA RESORT-LODGE Reference
# CAN3003
This lodge is a beautiful lakeside resort located in the heart of Ontario's
beautiful Muskoka - Georgian Bay lake country approximately 150 km (90 miles)
north of Toronto. It is situated in a quiet sheltered cove on the northern
shores of Gloucester Pool, part of the historic waterway. The resort encompasses
about 100 acres of waterfront property on over 700 meters (2000 feet) of
private shoreline, and overlooks a spectacular array of pine clad islands.
Since it's historical beginnings in the mid 1800's, careful attention
has been given to preserving the timeless beauty of this bygone era, yet
providing all the modern amenities one would expect from today's finest resorts
. . . from the classic white clapboard buildings with criss-cross log detail
to the architectural cobblestone sidewalks. This lodge has been featured
in many publications. It has been owned and operated by a private family
since 1937, and they and their staff are dedicated to providing the highest
standards of hospitality, comfort, and personal service. Open May to October
each year.
We know that family vacations deserve family times together. After all, kids
grow up too fast, and then all we have are memories . . . hopefully fantastic
memories. So, we're dedicated to providing a comprehensive fun-filled program
for the kids, and yet allowing flexibility for families to spend time together.
Kids can be enrolled in the Kids Program, and yet be taken out if families
want to do things together. Things such as family picnics, exploring secluded
islands, canoeing our sheltered coves, visiting our local attractions, horseback
riding or a host of other fun things to do are just waiting for you!
