Warning: LOUD MUSIC, cannabis, tobacco, and alcohol. Due to our liquor license, all overnight guests must be 19+. Unfortunately we cannot make any exceptions to this rule, so please don't inquire if you're travelling with anyone under the age of 19 years old (including infants), which is the legal drinking age in Ontario.

IMPORTANT COVID-19 Update:
A couple of important things to consider, as we have had to make a few changes to ensure that we are adhering to the proper guidelines while COVID-19 is still circulating:
- Saturday night #Jamnite will be suspended for right now, until we know more about the proper procedures regarding gatherings and safe social distancing practices. This may change before opening day on June 26th, we'll keep you posted.
- Canoe rentals will be more streamlined. You'll have to book your rental ahead of time with Bongo or Andrea to ensure that we can have things properly sanitized and ready for you. We will be setting up stations where you will interact with only one boat, and all equipment will be provided ahead of time (no shared canoe shed). We'll also need you to sign your waiver digitally before your trip. We encourage you to bring your own lifejacket if you have one.
- Dogs must be leashed at all times while outdoors to prevent any accidental contact with other guests.
- Shared spaces are changing. There will be no access to the common room in our lodge, so no public washroom facilities are available. Our beach area will be open for a maximum of 2 parties at any given time, and there will be no shared equipment (picnic tables, chairs, swimming raft).
- All check-ins will be contactless! For our veterans, you already know where to go and how to make yourself at home. If it's your first time, we'll send you a detailed list of instructions on how to get to your unit and let yourselves in.
- 3 separate firepit areas will be set up (no communal firepit) and you'll have to bring your own wood. Each firepit will be labeled with you room number, so please ensure you use the firepit that is associated with your room. We will outfit all rooms with mugs, a coffeemaker, kettle, mini fridge, bamboo cutlery/plates, and a small propane BBQ. We won't have any shared food prep areas or equipment.
We know this is a lot to digest. We'll make sure to communicate this with you upon arrival, too. We're so happy to be able to have people back, we have missed all of you! Peace & love from the Algonquin wilderness!
Other things to note
On some nights there will be late live music. Warning, bring EAR PLUGS. The biggest party night is Saturday.
Water is safe to drink! We filter and regularly test our water, it is certified safe to drink by a government lab analysis.
Our canoe/kayak rental is free for Bongopix guests. You will sign a waiver and follow our safety rules. For your safety we only allow the canoes/kayaks when the weather is good.
What to eat:
1. Cook on our BBQ!
2. Bring sandwiches, veggies/fruits, and snacks (you have a mini fridge)
3. Eat at our 3 local restaurants within walking distance!
