Whether you
prefer to slow down, unplug and tune out during your holiday
or actively participate, Woodland Echoes has
the perfect mix of beautifully landscaped grounds, meadow and
woodland trails to explore and play. A variety of active and
passive activities are sure to make your holiday memorable.
Water
Sports
Woodland
Echoes sits on the shores of the Magnetawan
River between Ahmic Lake and Lake
Cecebe. Over 40 miles of interconnected waterway
are waiting to be explored. Consider renting a motor
boat or using one of our free canoes to
begin your adventure.
Our sandy beach is perfect for the little ones.
The bigger ones will have fun on the water slide and water
tramploline.
We have a paddle boat and kayakis available
for the free use by our guests.
Fishing
You
don't need to be a professional angler to enjoy throwing a line
in the water. You may even bring home dinner! Discover some of
the local secrets on our fishing
page. During
July and August we have an out door "cook out" fish
fry using fish our guests don't need. Plan to visit the week
of July 7-15, 2012 "Family
Fishing Week" . We have a special package
and you do NOT require a fishing licence.
Trails
and
Wildlife
Pack your walking shoes and binoculars. Woodland
Echoes is a natural wonderland.
Trails meander through beautifully landscaped
gardens, wild meadows and lively woodlands. The
area is alive with over 35 species of birds frequenting
our many feeders. White-tailed deer are
commonly seen in the meadow and our friendly
chipmunks are always looking for a handout. In
the Spring and early Summer, a chorus of frogs
rises from the nearby wetlands, presenting nature's
concert at end of the day.
Cyclists take note - - An intricate
network of country backroads inspires exploration by
avid cyclists. The Trans
Canada Trail connects through Magnetawan along the
Old Nipissing
Road. Interpretive signage along the route tells
the tale of the early days of this colonization road.
A
number of other nature trails in the area offer an even greater
expanse of exploration. We have a guide book in the office with
hundreds of trail maps. When you are here be sure to ask about
it.
Fun
and Games
What cottage holiday is complete without a good old
fashion game of Yatzee? Remember Rumoli? We have a few
other forgotten memories in our games room.
The common space is great for rainy afternoons, equipped
with tons of board games, puzzles, a pool table and
pin ball machine. It also has a computer with high speed
internet connection, if you REALLY need to connect.
Or, take the games outside...
Beach volleyball, tetherball, geocaching (that's
treasure hunting on our trails with a GPS), a basketball net, horseshoe
pit, children's playground, table tennis, mini putt and a giant
outdoor chess board can fill everyone's days with endless activity.
Spa
Treatments
While
on vacation it is not difficult to convince yourself
that you deserve a little pampering. Our qualified massage
therapist brings the comforts to the privacy
of your own cottage. To see a sampling of what's available
