Viamede Resort #BoldyDifferent Experience

We had an amazing stay at Viamede Resort this summer venturing in lots of outdoor activities. We took advantage of the beautiful summer weather to go on the paddle boats, canoeing, kayaking, which are available for guests to use at their leisure.

During the mornings before the boats arrive the waters are calm, we thought it was the perfect way to relax and enjoy the water and the scenic landscape of Stony Lake. We also enjoyed swimming to reach the Aquaglide in the lake. We love that at Viamede long hours of the day can be spent by the lake to enjoy the waters, spend time with family and friends while making wonderful memories.

They have a recreation room, as well as games and movies we can be borrow. There is also an exercise room, two swimming pools one indoor that leads to a small outdoor pool area, and another outdoor pool facing the lake. We loved using the large outdoor recreation space to play games and sports, as well as the tennis court, and the children's play area by the beach. 

We loved hiking through the trails, and visiting the farm to see chickens, turkey, quails and pigs. They also have daily events such as going fishing or tubing, as well as guided tours to the farm that guests can join.

We stayed in a cottage across the lake, and loved the peaceful atmosphere and the setting of the cottage. Every cottage is a little different at Viamede. In the cottage, we stayed this summer, there is a half kitchen with a microwave and full fridge, sink, kitchen utensils and dishes, kettle and a coffee machine.  

Although the cottage needs some sprucing up, it is a lovely way to stay and enjoy the outdoor activities Viamede offers. Viamede has other types of accommodations such as rooms and lodges as well. Buffet breakfast is included with the stay, and has warm breakfast options such as eggs, French toast etc., as well as fruits, yogurt, bread and bagel. However, we wish there were other options like Danishes or pastries. 

During one of the nights of our stay, we chose the picnic basket option where we can make use of the barbecue at the cottage. The staff prepare everything we choose from a menu, and package it in a way we can easily barbecue and prepare the meal. 

We love that Viamede sources the ingredients for the meals prepared in their restaurants, locally and in-house. It really makes a difference in the freshness and taste. We enjoyed the delicious healthy servings of our lunch and dinner meals at the Boathouse. The menu at the Boathouse has options to suite every tastebud, which we really appreciated. From starters to main meals and desserts, it is the perfect spot for foodies to enjoy meals while staying at the resort or when just visiting the area - the Boathouse can be accessed by boat as well. Viamede Resort has gone tip free, makig it easy for families to enjoy, and have full experiences.

When you plan a trip to Viamede make some time to check out the Petroglyphs Provincial Park 20 minutes away from the resort. At this park, we were able to get a deeper understanding and appreciation of the Aboriginal way of life. Staying at the Viamede Resort is a wonderful way for families to relax and enjoy the beauty of the Kawartha Lakes region.
