HAPPY CANADA DAY

Hello Readers

Happy Birthday Canada!

Well I must admit the weather has been a bit frustrating these past few days, especially after the fantastic weather of last week. All that said, most days there has been breaks in the showers, the sun comes out and everybody is back into the water etc.. At one point yesterday afternoon every one of our watercraft which includes 2 peddle boats, the canoe, a rowboat, the surf bikes and all 5 kayaks were out at one time!

Weather allowing we'll do the kids scavenger hunt today and a smores roast tonight.

Those of you searching for a last minute holiday, we still have cottages available for next week, Jul 4 - July 11 and according to the forecast the weather is turning for the better come Saturday. We still have 2 and 3 bedroom cottages available for a variety of stays including 7 nights (Jul 4-Jul 11), 6 night (Jul 5-Jul 11) and we will consider 3,4 or 5 night stays as well. Just gives a call for dates and rates etc...

The remainder of July from the 11th is booked out sorry, including Civic Weekend and the first 2 weeks of August are now full as well. August vacancies exist in the weeks of Aug 15, 22 & 29 and there are still 3 spots left for Labour Day Weekend. The week of Aug 15 we have one 3 bedroom lakefront, #1 available due to a cancellation. It is our most popular cottage and for it to be available at any point during July and August is unheard of, so if you are interested now is your chance to grab it!

An update on wildlife sitings around our place: guests and our neighbours have reported seeing a beaver swimming along our shoreline, I have seen a turtle, the other morning I surprised a heron resting on our shore by the dock and it surprised me with its quick takeoff, I came across a deer on a walk last night, every few days or so I find the loon pair cruising around our waterfront, our chipmunk population is increasing after declining 2 years ago and a black bear has also been seen in the area.

Till next time

John
