Start Your Day in Your Cottage Rental
As the sun peaks over the horizon illuminating the towering trees and still lake, start your day with a freshly brewed coffee or enjoy breakfast on the private deck of your resort cottage rental. Take a quiet moment for yourself and feel your worries wash away, setting the stage for the day ahead.
After, venture out onto the lake for a morning paddleboard excursion. All Great Blue Resorts locations offer a wide range of all-inclusive amenities, including paddle boards, canoes, kayaks, and more, perfect for exploring the calm lakes at your own pace. Whether you’re a seasoned paddler or trying your hand at it for the first time, the tranquil waters are a great way to explore nature’s surroundings for all skill levels.
Experience Fun on Ontario’s Sandy Beaches
As the day progresses, it’s time to bask in the warm cottage country sun and head down to Ontario’s sandy beaches, so pack your coolers, bring your beach towels, and grab your favourite book. Whether you prefer a sunbathing session or a refreshing dip in the lake, the beaches at Great Blue Resorts provide the perfect backdrop for relaxation. If you’re not keen on swimming in the lake, head to the pool for a relaxing afternoon!
Looking to let the little ones run loose and release some of that excitement-filled energy? The splash pad, multi-sports court, or playground will do the trick! Or, book your stay around one of many organized resort activities for the kids. For the more adventurous cottagers, try one of the great hiking trails nearby, compete to catch the biggest fish, or rent a motor boat for the afternoon and spend a day on the lake!
Cottage Rentals: Your Mid-day Refuge
If your morning itinerary was action-packed, you might be ready for some quiet time at your fully-equipped, air-conditioned resort cottage rental. Now is the perfect time to head to the deck, fire up the grill, and start preparing your favourite cottage recipe to share with your friends and family!
Pro tip: mid-week stays are ideal if you’re looking for a more quiet resort experience, with lower rates and more availability too!
If you’ve saved most of your energy for the afternoon, take a short drive into one of the nearby towns and experience their quaint charm through a variety of shops, boutiques, restaurants, and other treasures to commemorate your cottage country adventure.
Unwind in Your Cottage under the Starlit Sky
Now that the sun is setting and you’re winding down for the night at your cottage rental, it’s the perfect time to take out your complementary firewood and get that campfire started. Sit back, relax, and listen to the sounds of nature while you roast s’mores and share laughs around the campfire with loved ones under the starlit sky. The only thing left on your to-do for the day is to prepare for another day of action-packed adventure or leisurely relaxation; the choice is yours!
