Back to TopDo you have wheelchair access?We have the Pine Room and its adjacent washroom on the 1st floor. There are two entrances to the 1st floor - one has 2 steps and the other has 1 step. If a person can manage one step and no special bars in the washroom or around the bed, then a wheelchair is fine. Back to TopDo you allow pets?Yes with restrictions, for cottage accommodations, and no inside the main lodge. This question has a 2-part answer. It is necessary to know that the main lodge is on a hilltop and the cottages are in the valley below at the water's edge. Main lodge Cottages Back to TopDo you have a boat dock?Yes, we have a small boat dock extending 40 feet from the edge which guests can dock 1 or 2 boats for day use. If the boat draft is more than 27", the motor should be raised before approaching the dock. We are not a marina and do not have wave breakers installed for calm waters. Rice Lake changes daily. Often it is extremely calm one day and very rough the next day or vice versa. On rough days, you should not attach your boat to the dock. We are not responsible for damaged boats. If you have a 16' or less boat some have put their boat in and out of the water using their trailer. However we do not have a boat launch and it is not deep. For normal 4' deep water launches, you should use launches which are 1 kilometer away in both directions. This is recommended. I have often anchored my boat off shore away from the dock during rough waters, rather than take it out of the water every time. You be the judge. However, if it breaks loose, you may have trouble. We are not responsible in any way for damaged boats. What I recommend is, for convenience, on calm days use our dock for day use, and for storage, go to the marina. On rough days, you can try my method as long as you keep an eye on it. Back to TopDo you rent boats?No, we do not rent boats. However, several marinas do nearby. Their prices range from $100 to $200 a day depending upon what you rent. A large marina is 2 km away (hike or drive). Back to TopDo you have a beach?Yes, a non-guarded beach. Swim at you own risk. This is not a public beach and there is no lifeguard, but you can swim at your own risk. The lake bottom at the shoreline consists of mainly mud and sand, with a few small rocks. The water is relatively shallow which makes it pretty safe for swimming. There is a gradual incline into deeper water. However, the water is only about 4' deep after traveling out 100' from shore. It is roughly 2.5 feet at the end of our dock. Small children should not walk out on the dock unattended. No children should go near the water without adult supervision. The water temperature is very pleasant during the summer. Back to TopWhat is there to do on the property?
