LOVE THE OUTDOORS?
THIS IS PARADISE

Summer or Winter, always something to do...or not.

The list of summertime activities is nearly endless. Hiking, running or walking on miles of trails; canoeing & kayaking; swimming; lounging by the lake; fishing; biking; exploring the gardens. Yes, there is a fitness center on property. Golfing is right nearby, and area fishing guides are available. You can't help but check out the amazing wildlife that call this little piece of paradise home.

In Winter,  there's snowshoeing on-site (we loan out titanium-frame snowshoes), plus cross country and downhill skiing not far away, and you can even try your hand at ice fishing. Step into the open air in the evening and you may be able to spot the northern lights (as seen from Canoe Bay above).

 

Or maybe simply schedule an in-room massage.
 
NOTE: Personal watercraft are not permitted, due to invasive species concerns. 

Trekking in Snow

SNOWSHOEING & SKIING

Snowshoe right on the property...we have snowshoes for you! Nearby Cross Country and Downhill Skiing

Step outside and discover the enchantment of Canoe Bay in winter. With over 300-acres to explore, plus the frozen lakes, it's a truly magical season to visit. And the best part? We offer complimentary snowshoes for you to enjoy the winter landscape!

Find 20 miles of classic and diagonal stride cross-country ski trails in the Blue Hills, only 25-minutes away (www.bluehillstrail.com), or bring your personal cross country ski gear and make your own paths across the property.
 
No-wait downhill skiing is enjoyed at Christie Mountain, also a 25-minute drive away (www.christiemountain.com), with rental equipment available there.

LOVE THE INDOORS?
THIS IS HEAVEN

The Greatest Gift of All: True Calm

Indulge yourself in the impressive hardcover book library at The Lodge, also home to a huge DVD collection. From history to art, cooking to poetry, autobiographies to political figures, you will find a topic in our collection that sparks an interest. You can even check email as needed as one of the strongest WiFi signals on property is located here (but please don't expect live-streaming in this remote setting).

There's a complete fitness room with treadmills, elliptical trainers, spin bike, yoga mats and a small assortment of free weights all located on the second floor of The Lodge. And every unit (except the Classics) has a big Jacuzzi tub. Don't forget to book a Massage—the therapist comes right to your cottage!
 
The astonishing views and charming wildlife are inescapable here, and suddenly you'll be delighted to discover that you've thoroughly decompressed from the commotion that crowds our everyday lives.
