Summer Dreams and Big Backyards

Now we're into May, it's time to think about booking your summer vacation. Everyone needs time away from work, time to let your spirit breathe and your body relax. Time to disconnect from the pressures of everyday and reconnect with your family and yourself.

And there's nowhere better for that then right here at Bondi, in North Muskoka. We're close -- no need to beat your way through airport line-ups, security, lost luggage... you can be here in two and half hours from downtown Toronto. And not just from the big cities far away -- we have guests who come to us from nearby Huntsville, because they have found that having a week away from home, at the lake, without the hassle of a long drive works perfectly for them. They can still get the kids to soccer or dance lessons, and if they've forgotten something, they can whip home and collect it in under an hour, but they (and the kids!) wake up every morning to the sound of the country: loons on the lake, birds in the trees by the window; the children enjoy feeding the chickens, riding the pony, trying to bribe the deer closer and closer. The lake beckons, and it's so easy to just wander on down, morning coffee in hand, while the kids play on the beach, at the playgrounds or in the big sandpile. Everything is close, and easy.

We're close to golf (and even closer to our own 9 hole Frisbee Golf Course!); restaurants, theatres, movies, big attractions like the S.S. Segwun steamship, Santa's Village, Muskoka Pioneer Village -- and of course we're right next door to Algonquin Provincial Park. We'll even give you a day pass to get you into the Park. Always provided you can get the kids out of the lake and off the water trampoline. Within a short drive, you can zip-line, visit the Haliburton Forest Wolves, or meet Santa Claus. Every year, our guests win Photo Contests with pictures they've taken while visiting us. We're a haven for wildlife (with our 600 acre wilderness reserve) and for birdwatchers. We think we're also a haven for family values, a place where the kids can still run and play and just be kids...

Our nature programs introduce kids and adults alike to the wonders of our big backyard, and the programs offered at both Algonquin and Arrowhead Parks introduce folks from around the world to Ontario's natural world.

So, whether you're into activity from morning to night, or you'd prefer to take it easy by the lake, we've got the place for you. We are currently booking for the summer, so give us a call! 705 635 2261, or 1 888 300 2132.

We've got your summer...
