Discover the Guest House

Step back in time and enjoy the 1950’s keepers dwelling, complete with wooden floors, gabled sashes and a charming red and white painted exterior. The three bedroom homestead offers basic comfort for up to six guests, including one double bed, two rooms with two single beds, and a cot if necessary. With on-site solar and generator power (occasionally), running cold and filtered water, propane stove and indoor plumbing, you’ll experience a glamping-like atmosphere while staying indoors. For 40 years, families lived and worked here, helping to navigate the waterways and build a nation.
