After a big day on the cross country ski or snowshoe trails, most of our guests agree the genuine wood-fired lakeside sauna looks pretty inviting. A large hole cut in the thick ice of Lake Gegoka makes it a truly one-of-a-kind experience… try jumping into the icy water after baking at 200 degrees for awhile! “Refreshing” is the word often used to describe it. (FREE instruction in lake jumping is offered every weekend by a certified professional- your host, of course!) Seriously, nothing can quite compare and there is no better way to ease into the evening.
For those who prefer, the large outdoor hot tub located next to the shower house is an option. It is a popular R&R spot for young and old alike.
Or you can grab a book, pour yourself your favorite beverage and relax by the fire or recap the day’s adventures with other guests.
One thing that everybody agrees on- the social hour before Saturday’s dinner is a must. Delicious smoked salmon and other goodies as well as an assortment of wine and beer are provided by your hosts, Mark and Sue. Enjoy meeting your fellow guests, renewing old acquaintances, and sharing the events of the day.
