We had a wonderful family weekend at the Magnetawan cottage in Algonquin cottage outpost. Excellent service, very friendly staff. We went snowshoeing, backcountry skiing and dog sledding, and we had a lot of fun. The cottage is very comfortable with all what you need. It is really a very Canadian experience!!

We had an amazing week-end at the Algonquin Cottage! The lodge is very comfortable (even without electricity!), the staff is so nice and cooked for us all week-end (fresh 'home-made' food). We had snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, hockey on the lake and dog sledding. The activities are customized depending on the group size and ability. It's really up to you to... More

The staff of our office, which happens to be girls only, had a fabulous stay. The best of all, we are still talking to each other at the office! We went dogsledding which was a new experience for most of us. We had such a fabulous time that we didn't even miss the sun! It was a winter wonderland which... More

There could be no greater reminder of the beauty of Canada than to experience it during winter at Algonquin Park. What a fabulous 3-days our family of four (2 adults, 2 kids) had snowshoeing, cross-country skiing and skating under the stars while staying in a beautiful cabin right near the entrance to Algonquin Park. This trip, run by Voyageurquest, was... More

My husband and I celebrated our first anniversary at the private island retreat from Oct 18-21. The cottage is just perfect. Has everything you would need. Beautiful views, clean, comfortable, nice kitchen facilities. Very romantic cozied up by the fire. It was an easy canoe ride, even for inexperienced people like myself. It was incredibly peaceful, especially being at the... More

We did a fair amount of research - mind you all at the last minute - to arrange a remote Algonquin Park mini-vacation to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We have a cottage on Lake Muskoka, so it was important to find something that felt truly natural and calming. The trip was a three day two night trip and day one... More

As this customer mentions - It is important to note that this couple booked a private guided canoe trip for 2 people at the very last minute (confirmed 48 hours before the start date) during peak season. Typically, our guided trips depart at 12:30pm. The arrangement for a 3pm start is unusual and was informed by the last minute booking... More

A great way to enjoy the wilderness of Algonquin Park. The guides were very capable and fun to be with. We were warmly greeted the minute we arrived. The hikes had just the right amount of challenge and we went on several canoe outings - day, night and silent one early morning. The scenery was beautiful and so calming and... More

Rick made the trip. He welcomed just the right amount of assistance with pampering, deserved credit for set up/cooking while sharing appreciation with the voyageur team that did the food prep/packing and effectively guided and led the itinerary despite full on rain. I would definitely enjoy a voyageur canoe trip again!

This was a great trip! We had an awesome guide, Rick, he cooked for us, cleaned up after us, told us stories around the camp fire,answered all our questions (I didn't stump him once) and showed us things I otherwise wouldn't have even noticed. It rained the entire weekend, but thanks to Rick's knowledge we paddled to a campground that... More

A brilliant 3 day trip into the wilds of Algonquin Park, our family of 4 (including 2 teenage girls) plus 4 other adults, brilliantly looked after by our expert guide Nick. The paddling wasn't easy but the scenery was breathtaking and the opportunity to be away from the crowds and cars was well worth the effort. The kit provided was... More
