Ice Fishing

Looking for the great white north experience. Bring lots of sweaters, mitts, hats, scarfs and pack up and head out for an ice fishing trip. Be ready to carve through the ice and learn about the best techniques to catch fish in the middle of the winter. Remember, we did tell you that fishing is year round.

Cross-country skiing

What better way than to enjoy our vast private estate than to strap on some x-country skis and go for a tour around our property. For starters, the private road makes for an ideal beginners trek whilst the pros head for the woods and cut their own trails through fresh powder snow as far as the eye can see. Limited equipment is available and arrangements can be made with a local sports supplier. Prep yourself with a review of trails at: http://www.canadatrails.ca

Hockey and Ice Skating on the lake

Lace up the skates, boil up the hot chocolate and head out onto the lake for a game of ice hockey. Not for the fainthearted, many people can boast of late afternoon frost bitten fingers and toes but it's all worth it to tell tales of glory on that brisk, cold winter day on a Lake similar to ours. A good primer for your hockey experience and a vintage look at the passion for hockey: The Hockey sweater

Snowmobiling

Rev up the engines and feel the winter wind on your face as you roar through the woods on a snowmobile in the middle of an Ontario winter. Ride locally or catch up with the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile clubs to get the latest news on trails, trips and get-togethers with enthusiasts of this winter sport.

Snow shoeing

If you haven't experienced it yet, an afternoon of walking around on Snow Shoes will make you float on top of the snow. Take advantage of the small trails that have been discovered by the X-country skiers and enjoy trekking through the natural surroundings of the lodge. Visitors may make plans to even trek at one of the nearby provincial parks.
