Elmhirst's Resort
RR #1 Keene
Keene, Ontario

Elmhirst's Resort is located 90 minutes east of Toronto on the north shore of Rice Lake. This unique colony of lakeside cottages began as a humble fishing camp for American families, developed a European market and built a meetings business as well as creating outdoor adventure opportunities for free spirits. Spread over 240 acres, the Resort, still family owned and operated, caters to an international market year round - the fields are grazed by Black Angus Beef cattle - bred and raised for the dining room; free range chickens produce the eggs for the kitchen; vegetable and herb gardens provide the freshest produce and the greenhouse features an array of flowering plants. Horseback riding, guided ATV and snowmobile safaris, sightseeing flights, biking, hiking and ski trails, indoor and outdoor pools, tennis and waterfront sports including canoeing, kayaking or boat rentals are available. Need a workout or massage? Comfortable country style cottages are fully furnished with every amenity - wood burning fireplace, private outdoor deck and dock. Ideal setting for enjoying nature on the waterfront, surrounded by gardens. Have a BBQ on your deck or dine with us in the Pub or Hearthside Room. The commitment to home-grown is everywhere... the wine cellar features only Ontario wines not readily available in liquor stores. It's worth a visit! Charters to a wilderness lodge, Niagara Falls or destinations you can only imagine are available for adventure seekers.
