Adventure Description

A 2 night stay in a cozy heated cabin at Silent Lake Provincial Park. These cabins have proper beds and heaters for a comfortable stay even in the dead of winter. Silent Lake is deep in forest and dotted with lakes, about 2.5 hours from Toronto. If you want to spend more time outside this winter but camping in the cold seems unappealing, you'll want to join for this!

We'll drive up after work on Friday, grabbing dinner en route then settle into the cabin to chill on the first night. Waking up on Saturday, there are several hikes around the park that we can tackle or you can choose your own adventure. Snowshoes and ice-spike rental is included in this adventure so you'll have everything you need to get out and about. Saturday night, we'll cook dinner, eat and play games together before a cooked breakfast before some further exploration then a return to Toronto later in the day.

Comfort stations are open so there'll be hot showers available. All of the adventure with none of the hardship!

If you'd like food provided, there'll be 2x cooked breakfast, 1 x cold lunch and one hot dinner. Where possible, dietary requirements will be accommodated but allergies regrettably can not.

Sleeping arrangements:

There are 2 queen beds, 1 single bed. If we are more than 3, we'll also be bringing sleeping pads so nobody needs to share a bed.

You can check out a full video tour of the exact cabin that we'll be staying in here.

Note that the cabin only accommodates 5 so space is extremely limited. Jump on this quickly if you're at all interested!
