Plenty to Do Without
Leaving Paradise Escape
Some cottage vacations require you to drive somewhere every time you want something to do. Paradise Escape is different. With more than 300 feet of waterfront, four docks, a beach area, water activities and outdoor spaces throughout the property, some of the best parts of your vacation are already waiting outside your cottage.
On The Water
Kayaking & Paddleboarding
Explore the waterfront at your own pace. Head out for a quiet morning paddle or turn an afternoon on the water into part of the adventure.
Marina & Rentals
Boating
Get out on the water and experience cottage country from a completely different perspective. Paradise Escape offers boat rental options directly through our Marina & Rentals.
Adventure
Sea-Doo Adventures
Guests looking for more excitement can take to the water on a Sea-Doo and make the waterfront part of the adventure.
Fishing
Fishing
Fish from the shoreline or docks, or spend time out on the water and enjoy one of cottage country’s classic pastimes.

Waterfront Relaxation
Not every day needs an itinerary. Find your favourite place by the water, settle in and let the afternoon move a little slower.
