A Place of Healing and History

For decades, Lodge on the Point served as a private Healing Lodge, offering a place of health, wellness, and spiritual renewal for various Indigenous organizations. This land holds deep significance, as Manitou Lake is part of a 6,000-year-old Anishinaabe canoe route, rich with Indigenous traditions and stories.

Even today, this historic waterway remains a beloved destination for canoeists and adventurers, connecting them to the vast, interconnected lakes of the Temagami region.

Whether you seek history, natural beauty, or peaceful solitude, Lodge on the Point offers a one-of-a-kind northern experience—a place where the past and present come together in perfect harmony.

Lodge on the Point – A Historic Retreat on Manitou Lake

Lodge on a lake, cabins and cottage rentals

Nestled against the rugged Temagami mountains and extending south into the crystal-clear waters of Manitou Lake, Lodge on the Point offers an unforgettable northern Ontario retreat. This breathtaking lakeside escape features an authentic 1945 cedar lodge, three fully equipped cottages, and three additional cabins, each with private waterfront views along 1,300 feet of pristine shoreline.

A Legacy of Adventure & Healing

From the 1940s to the 1980s, Lodge on the Point was a renowned hunting and fishing destination, attracting American outdoor enthusiasts seeking Ontario’s best wilderness experiences. In the 1990s, the property transformed into a private healing lodge, serving Indigenous communities for nearly 30 years as a sanctuary for restoration and renewal.

Restored & Reimagined for a New Era

Today, under our family’s care, Lodge on the Point has been lovingly restored and upgraded, blending modern comforts with its rich history. Once again open to the public, we invite you to experience the timeless beauty, serene landscapes, and deep-rooted history of this unique Temagami lodge.
