Seasonal highlights:

Summer: Enjoy the calm, walk-in waterfront or jump off the dock, gather around campfires at one of our three fire pit areas, and explore the river with two adult kayaks, two children’s kayaks, and two canoes. The property also offers a BBQ, lawn games, and plenty of outdoor space for families to relax and play.

Winter: Cozy up by the fire, enjoy winter campfires, snowshoe nearby trails, and take advantage of skiing and seasonal attractions in the area, including the local Maple House.

Seasonal bunkies & amenities:
From May to September, guests have access to two seasonal bunkies — a sleeping bunkie and a flex games bunkie featuring a large games table and air hockey.
