With the rain we have been having lately, all of our snow has melted and we can see the grass underneath. I can't help but think of summer during this time. Even though things are wet and cool outside, with little to no snow, I am thinking about what I would like to do during my cottage stay this summer.
Owning a cottage is great but going away on vacation to your own cottage can become more of a work stay than a relaxation stay. I have set a few goals for my stay at Mallard Beach this summer hopefully forcing myself to stop work and enjoy some time with my family.
1) Quest for the ultimate Burger! I know I have mentioned this in a previous entry. I still feel like there might be a fantastic spot that only the locals know about. I hope to sample a few different spots to try and find the best burger in the Parry Sound / Muskoka area. I have a few spots on my radar. Kate's Kart is known for their burgers. I feel as though this will be the one to beat. I am sooo looking forward to this very important research! :)
If anybody has recommendations - please let me know! I'm looking anywhere in the Muskoka or Parry Sound area!
2) Another item on my to-do list, is to check out White Squall Paddling Centre They rent out kayaks, canoes, and stand up paddle boards. They also offer day trips and tours. Sounds like it would be a lot of fun! This would be a great escape for the family out in nature. Hopefully I can get the whole family on board for this one!
3) I've had a few of our guests recommend the Sawdust City Brewery Tour - The Sawdust Brewery is located in Gravenhurst, Ontario. I've never been there myself, but I look forward to giving it a try. They have six core brands of craft beers but they also have seasonal offerings. I'm not much of a beer drinker but I'm always willing to give new things a try!
4) Killbear Provincial Park I hear it is amazing! There is a beautiful six kilometre trail for hiking or biking and beautiful sandy beaches. Again I have never been there - so this will be a fun new experience for the family!
5) Eat at one of the Rocky Crest Golf Resort restaurants. The "Windows Restaurant" and "On the Bistro" look amazing. I have heard a lot of good things but again, I haven't had a chance to eat there myself. I try to make a point to try new restaurants but because these two restaurants are only open during the summer months, I seem to keep missing them. Again - please leave a comment if you have dined at either restaurant. I look forward to hearing all about it!
Fingers crossed I get all five of these goals checked off during my 2018 summer cottage stay. I have our family getaway week booked already for 2019 at Hammond Haven! A year and a half away and I'm already getting excited!
