Handicap Accessible Cottage


Designed by an occupational therapist with your needs in mind!

Cottage number 7 has been renovated to become our handicap accessible cottage with the intent of making carefree cottaging possible for people of all ability levels. Whether the individual uses a cane, walker, or wheelchair this cottage is a good choice.

It has a ramp to the 34" wide entry door. All interior doors are at least 34" wide and there is turning space for a wheelchair in the master bedroom, kitchen and bathroom.

Furniture is arranged to enable easy movement throughout the cottage. The cottage has a roll-in shower in the bathroom with a flip down seat. There is a grab bar beside the toilet and a wall hung sink. While the two person corner jacuzzi overlooking the private woods at the back of the cottage is not accessible, it is an added attraction for the caregiver.

Marie Gage, owner, is also an occupational therapist and as such has designed this cottage with a number of different ability levels in mind.

It is possible to arrange to have additional equipment rented and delivered prior to your stay. For example a raised toilet seat, shower commode, or portable ceiling track lift. Come and check it out -- you won't be disappointed.

The rest of the grounds are relatively flat and grass covered (except in winter when it is snow covered of course). The spa building and office are accessible by ramp (however the ramp into office is a ramp that is steeper than 1:12 grade and thus caution is advised). However, the hot tub and sauna are not accessible. The Rec Hall is not accessible at this time .. however, if demand for the handicap cottage increases we will add a ramp.

What Customers Say

  • "My husband has not been able to take a vacation with the family since his accident. Our girls are having such a good time vacationing with their father. The cottage works perfectly for us! We can't wait to come back and have already booked a week in June."
  • "I've been looking for years for a cottage that is truly accessible and now I've found it! So, many people advertise that they are accessible and then we arrive and find barriers that we can't manage to get around. What a great experience to finally have a place to vacation that is truly accessible."
  • "A great place to take my sister who needs a lift to be moved from bed to chair. She had a great time!"
