Shameless Self Promotion

Brian -- with help from Rebecca -- produced a new Winter Postcard to help us advertise the fact that we are open year round.

Now that the cities to the south of us don't seem to get winter anymore, being instead trapped in an eternal November -- gray, icy, slushy and dark -- people seem to forget that winter in Canada is still a season to celebrate.

The big trick to enjoying winter is that you must be able to PLAY WITH IT! Now that play can take many forms: you can ski (downhill, or on our 20 km of groomed cross country ski trails where you will see wildlife tracks, and wildlife); snowshoe, skate, throw snowballs, build a quinzy hut just for fun, craft elegant snowpeople, or snow forts and snow caves. Toboggan. Tube. Take your camera for a walk through winter wonderlands that catch the sun and transform into endless diamonds. You can simply sit by the fire, watching through the window with a cup of tea (or something stronger -- entirely your choice!) You can walk into our woods and simply listen to the silence. That in itself is a rare and treasurable commodity in our busy world now.
Close by, you can saddle up the snowmobiles and hit the well maintained trails. We make an excellent base for that activity, ensuring that you have a comfortable, spacious, warm and welcoming place to come home to after a day on the trails.
Dog sledding, sleigh rides, winter carnivals and festivals are all part of our winter.

We are blessed to have that happy combination of attitude and altitude that ensure we still enjoy winters you CAN play with.

After all, if you're trying to get the kids - or yourself - unplugged from the computers and out the door, you need a reason to be outside. Activities in the great Canadian winter would be the best thing we can think of to entice folks to get outdoors!
