Thought I should bring you up to speed with winter activities up here at Clear Lake. We have snow, yes, probably about 10-15cm at the moment on our property and the lake is frozen over (again!). Expecting another 15-25cm tonight and tomorrow, so things should be looking pretty good for winter happenings.
Hidden Valley is open for downhill skiing with 3 lifts/4 runs in operation (current 18 January). Rock Ridge in Huntsville is open for tubing and Arrowhead is open, but at this point for snowshoeing and hiking only. Algonquin Park has some cross-country trails open last time I checked.
Events for the coming weeks/months include:
- Muskoka Loppet- Jan 27/28
- Huntsville Winterfest Feb 2, 3 & 4
- Kearney Dog Sled Races- Feb 9, 10 & 11
If you are looking ahead to Summer, keep an eye on our availability calendar at our website www.algonquinwoods.com .
It changes constantly this time of year (we do our best to keep it as up to date as possible) and so if your week and/or preferred cottage(s) are currently not available, keep checking or ask us about being placed on a waiting list. We do get cancellations, so things could still open up a bit in late Jan/early Feb.
If you have already booked with us and have not yet received your deposit request letter, please let us know as soon as possible. Remember, we really appreciate having all deposits paid by the end of January so we know what we have available to offer to new guests.
Till next time
John
