Activities At Bryer Lodge

THE GREAT OUTDOORS

Relax and enjoy the beach or take your chairs to one of the docks to catch some sun. The varied shoreline at Bryer Lodge has many spots to sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery.
If you're looking to get out and see some of the wildlife and wilderness, the French River Provincial Park and thousands of acres of crown land surround us. Bring your boat, canoe, kayak, bike or hiking boots and challenge the great outdoors. The nearby Mashkinonje Provincial Park has an excellent system of hiking trails

FISHING

For over 50 years the French River has enjoyed a well deserved reputation for it's fishing quality. Ontario's most sought after game fish are here: walleye (pickerel), muskie, northern pike and small and large mouth bass. Fishing guides are available, please inquire at time of booking.
