Elkhart Resort borders Riding Mountain National Park near the village of Wasagaming and Clear Lake, the largest in the park. Accommodations include lodge rooms from a standard double to executive king and chalets with one to four bedrooms.

On site facilities include a full-service spa and mineral pool, family-friendly indoor swimming pool with indoor and outdoor hot tubs, and golf course. A private horse facility is located on the grounds. Guests find over 400km of hiking and cross country ski trails at the resort plus all those in the National Park. Winter visitors can enjoy ice skating, tobogganing, dog sledding and snowmobiling. Or, a full day of pampering in the spa.

Personal Note: Not knowing how much time we would spend in the park we arrive at Elkhart Resort without a reservation. No problem for a mid-September weeknight – we select a deluxe fireplace king room. The comfortable spacious room include a sectional sofa with chaise lounge, fireplace and private patio with all the expected amenities. We have drinks and dinner in the Buffalo Bar overlooking the golf course. I recommend the stuffed Yorkshire pudding.
