Daily activities at the chalet are swimming, floating on floaties, boating, paddle boating, kayak, paddleboading, canoeing, tubing, fishing on shore or on the dock offshore. Many guests just like to relax on the shoreline or place their blankets or lawn chair on the grass and just sleep and the children like to play in the sand pile. I strongly encourage families to plan for beach time by bringing your sunscreen, blow-up water toys, swim shoes, flippers, canoes, kayaks and life jackets, there is a floatation raft, paddleboat paddleboard canoe and kayak as non-motorized toys to play with. Lifejackets are mandatory to use them. no exceptions. If you are bringing a larger boat and need to dock it, either town, Chapeau (4 miles west) or Waltham (2 miles east) are your choices. There is a gentle, gradual decline into the water from the shoreline. Bring some mosquito repellant and a warm jacket and old blanket that you can bring out to the campfire at night.
Activities in the Upper Ottawa Valley are: White water rafting, white water floating, river rafting Black River(free), ziplining at Chutes at Fort Coulonge there is also a real nice walking trails near the rapids edge. There is a charge to enter into some of these park sites. There are several golf courses around. Petawawa Army Camp, Stalactites and Stalagmites at the Bonnechere Caves in Eganville. Algonquin Park Camp Grounds and Baron Canyon which entrance is on the higher east side of the Park. In winter there is skating skiing, ice fishing, tobogganing and skidooing and much more...
There is plenty to do around in the surrounding cities.
Ottawa is the capital of Canada. Ottawa hosts many things to do with the parliament buildings and museums. If you look up the cities of Ottawa and Gatineau you will find countless things to do.
Ottawa has an airport however there is no railroads, public transit or buses to or from Pembroke to Ottawa.
