Lodge-Based Adventures

If your idea is to enjoy the wilderness in Canada with all the creature comforts, a lodge-based vacation at Smoothwater is the perfect choice.

You sleep in comfy, cozy, rooms, not tents.  And you’ve got amazing local cuisine to look forward to, each and every meal. 

Explore, learn, have fun, relax, rejuvenate, eat. On water, land or snow.  It’s that simple. You may not want to go home.

The Art Of Doing Nothing
Practice the art of doing nothing --except maybe floating in a canoe, or watching snowflakes dance. Or explore the local area on your own time, at your own speed. Rates for meal and lodging packages.

Smoothwater offers several lodge-based activities and programs with accommodation and meals. Let us tempt you, winter, spring, summer, and fall.
old growth forest canoe hikes

yoga and art retreats

museums and festivals

Winter Holidays
Some have said our cross-country skiing and snowshoeing trails rank with the world’s best. We have many winter packages for romantic couples, families and friends.

Wind on the Water
When you see parallel streaks of foam on the water, it's windy -but how windy? The foam has come from lots of breaking waves stirring up organic matter in the water, creating a sudsing effect. In open water, this kicks in around 30 kilometres/hour or 15-20 knots. So next time you see foam, heads up!
