Bondi Resort Blog

Come on into our Blog for a look at the wonderful world we've got to share! With over 240 hectares (600 acres) of wilderness woodlands surrounding the resort, just ten minutes from Algonquin Park, we feature over 400 metres (1200’) of waterfront and beach; boat rentals; summer hiking trails winding through fields and woods; 20 km. of groomed cross country ski trails and snowshoeing in winter; access to nearby snowmobile trails for sledders, and a toboggan hill for the young at heart.

Fresh Corn -- none Fresher!

It's here! At the cookout this week we had our very first corn, fresh as can be from our own organic garden! Nothing is better than Bondi's sweet corn!!!

Tubing Day

Wednesday is Tubing Day. Although this week every day is tubing day for some of our guests, who bring their own boat, tubes and complete collection of nine keen kids! Dave was busy with the number of people enjoying their free tube ride with us.

Double Parking

Parking problems in Muskoka... One of our guests trying to get into the parking lot at Bondi Village Resort. ‪#‎bondivillage‬ ‪#‎northmuskoka‬‪#‎familysummers‬ ‪#‎wildlife‬

Bondi Week.Roots and Wings

thank you Kathy for sharing some photos from your week with us! These kids are never found far from the lake -- what with tubing, skiing, kneeboarding, boating, swimming... building sandcastles... Good thing that they get a 'break from the lake' when they come to gather eggs at the stable  ‪#‎bondivillage‬ ‪#‎summerfamilies‬ ‪#‎summerfun‬ ‪#‎explorersedge‬

The Best Visits

The does are now bringing their fawns with them onto the lawns -- but they don't let the little ones come quite this close to the people! What a wonderful experience this is for our Bondi guests! ‪#‎explorersedge‬ ‪#‎bondivillageresort‬‪#‎northmuskoka‬ ‪#‎algonquinpark‬ ‪#‎muskokatourism‬ ‪#‎travelontario‬ Thanks to Brendan Jaekl for the great photos!

Mars, Scorpio, Dark Skies, Meteors and Moons...

Night sky. After the huge rainfall (which we oh so very much needed) on Tuesday, the sun is back, and so is the moon at night! Thanks Brendan Jaekl for the photo. ‪#‎explorersedge‬ ‪#‎bondivillageresort‬ ‪#‎darkskies‬ Make the picture big -- just left of the moon, the first bright 'star' you see is actually MARS... sitting just inside the three curving stars that form the claws and head of Scorpio... level with it, just to the left of Mars, is Antares (the rival of Mars), the beating heart of Scorpio... And just above them is the 'tail' of the Scorpion. It is very rare to get to see Mars and Antares side by side like this, so get out there and look into the southern night sky. Antares is the only red star in our summer sky... that other red star, well, that's a planet. 

Twin Sets

seems like Kathryn and Laura aren't the only twins at Bondi this week! Check out these saucy little fawns right outside the cottages.
