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.

We have a Lake, and S'mores!





Coming back from the Island Swim today, I met one of our neighbours. Down on her dock for her own morning dip, she chatted with me about the swimmers in the water, and I joked that if she got in the lake now, she would put off my "head count". We had nine intrepid swimmers from the Island, including Eamon, 10 years old. And Erik, who ticked off that 1.6 km in less than 30 minutes. Another five tackled the shorter distance of the Point Swim.


'Do you do this every week?' she asked.



Yes, we do.



'From Bondi?'

Yes, we are.


I asked Hugh, 6, who was riding as my First Officer in the support boat, "what else do we do at Bondi, Hugh?"


He almost jumped out of the boat. "We have shuffleboard!"



Yes. What else?



"We have a lake."



That too... and on Tuesday, at the bonfire?


"We have S'mores!"



That about wraps it up... after all, what more can we say?
