Staying by the Lakeside Cottages

We know some of you out there absolutely LOVE WINTER, and while most of us are quite ready for spring, you’re wishing winter would hang on a bit longer. We have a solid 2 feet of snow. Just sayin’ 😉

Snuggly warm by the fire! 🔥

❄️ 2 1/2 hours in, can’t see the middle island, an inch or so of snow, and there’s a group out there on the lake ice fishing. Wind slowly picking up…then it will get wild!

The calm before the storm. ❄️
It’s quiet out here right now, but we know what’s coming. We’re hunkered down and have the camera ready.
Stay tuned - we’ll be sharing the transformation as it happens. It’s about to look like a winter wonderland out here!

What a beautiful day on Gordon Lake. ☀️🎣
The air is mild, the sun is out and the fish are biting. This is what “winter magic” is all about!

Winter’s final encore is here! ❄️ 🎣
From the quiet trails to the frozen lake, there’s still time to enjoy the North before the kayaks take over!
