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.

Sled Report for the Weekend

Well I bet we are in for a busy weekend. Our trails are pretty much as good as they get. Highland Rovers opened up trails 78-79 for us and its listed as limited. Also limited is trail 77W from Tally Ho to Dwight. It is still a bit rough in some ares due to the tree canopy not letting the snow to get to the ground. All others are good to go. Any road running has pretty good coverage and with the predicted snow each day should keep it that way.

Thanks to Tim, of the Algonquin Snowmobile Club, for this 'up to the minute report' on the local trails! Conditions have been such that now that we have the snow, there are a lot of keen sledders hoping to get out there!

The warm weather we had, wet snow and cold nights have made for a great trail base. I went for a ride on Oxtongue Lake and was surprised it was in better shape than the last ride a few days ago. It has firmed up but still a bit wet near shore. We have not staked it yet, hopefully after this weekends traffic and some more cold will firm it up so we can stake it.

Just another reminder about our Chili Cook Off this Saturday on Trail D101B just north of the Shelter. Be sure to stop by and vote for your favorite. Hope to see plenty of ASC Members throughout the day.

If you are in the area, trail 76 is must trip and also trail 65 from the Shelter around towards Dorset. Trail 74N to D101B to Oxbow should also be on your bucket list. With the logging that went on this summer its an awesome ride, even in the groomer. "

Thanks for the update, Tim, and huge thanks to all the volunteers and Club members who work so hard to ensure our local trails are shining stars in Provincial network! There's just no place better to be!

Napster Art

We are very proud of Napster, our tail-painting cat, who uses his lovely artwork to raise money for charities. This lovely little creature passed away July 2015, but left a huge legacy, having raised over $12,000 for various charities through the sale of his artwork. That artwork, through prints and notecards, is still available.
