Driftwood may not look like much, but it serves as important habitat for many creatures, such as small reptiles and amphibians, and small mammals! If you come across driftwood during your visit to the park, please leave it as you found it, to keep animal homes and shelters intact.
Help! This is Carl. Carl is orphaned. For the last week we have been trying to get help for Carl. No one is taking baby raccoons. Is there anyone who can take on this little guy until he is big enough to be on his own? He wanders around our cottage but he is just too small to make it alone. Please dont tell me to call Erie Wild life or any other organization. They are not taking any more raccoons.
With Taylor Fish Company – I just got recognized as one of their top fans! 🎉
Last but not least – visitors can help Parks Canada with monitoring in too!
Staff can’t be everywhere at once – you can help be eyes and ears on the ground and on the water by uploading wildlife and plant IDs to iNaturalist!
Whether it’s a rare species, a potentially invasive species, or just your favourite animal – snap a photo and upload your sighting. Staff check IDs in the park regularly!

Thank you for everything! It takes a Village!!
Our vision is to help our neighbours thrive.
What better way to do that, than to allow local support groups to use our space?
Each Thursday evening from 7:30 - 9:00 PM, one of those groups meets in the Village Boardroom.
If you, or someone you know, is struggling with addiction, and needs to connect, please call our office and we can help them do just that.
It takes a village . . . 🥰

With Lil Hil's Coffee Shop – I just made it onto their weekly engagement list by being one of their top engagers! 🎉 We love promoting this great eatery and our guests have wonderful reviews!
Plants are just as important to monitor as animals!
You may have noticed deer exclosures in certain areas of the park. These are part of a forest health monitoring program, allowing us to compare the diversity of plants inside, where deer cannot browse vs. outside the exclosure, where deer are roaming freely.

Animals are on the move! 🐢🐍
From late May to mid-July, female turtles travel from water to land in search of good spots to lay their eggs. They often cross roads to do this, especially since roadsides provide such an attractive, sandy spot to nest in! Please drive slowly in the park to allow time to stop for our slow and steady friends.
No Vacancy! Well until September anyway. Thank you everyone for a fantastic season. September dates are available so book now if you want a fall get away.

This weekend brought us guests from the other side of Lake Erie. Very nice family and it was our pleasure to host them! They write, "We felt right at home. She had everything there you could ever need or want in an airbnb. I had a few questions and they were answered quickly and accurately. I would highly recommend this place."
Thank you and we hope to see you again!!
Experts say it’s totally fine for you to go off trail.
The experts – pictured here.
It’s important to stay on the trails when visiting . Not only does it help keep habitats in the park safe from trampling, it can also help you avoid hazards like ticks and poison ivy!
Wonderful guests from Quebec who came to do some birdwatching. Our pleasure to host them! Their review is as follows, "Exceptional view. Beautiful sunrises. Cozy place. We enjoyed the 2 bathrooms. The kitchen is extremely well equipped. Our host was very attentive to us. For bird lovers, 3.6 km from the Hillman Marsh and 14 km from the entrance of Pointe-Pelée National Park. I recommend it."
Thank you and we hope to see you again!
Our Fish & Chip Truck will be OPEN this Monday (11:30-7:30) for Victoria Day in addition to our regular hours.
