There are 55 steps to get to dock. Depending on the day and water levels from the Trent you may have a current in water, but still very swimmable for most kids/teens/adults who are stronger
swimmers, it will be difficult with a toddler but we do have a sandy wading area beside the dock. Thousands of people come to the Gull to swim or tube its river.

    What a perfect property and location. Enjoyed being on the dock watching people float down the river to the lake. Not one bad thing about our stay. Would definately jump at the opportunity to do it again.

    I had the opportunity to meet Shawn, and what a great guy and host. You can't ask for a better situation knowing the owner truly cares about your stay/wellbeing. The welcome/information package is top notch, and the cottage has all the necessary amenities. The property is rather secluded despite the neighboring cottages along the river. Mosquitos were hit and miss, but hey it's northern Ontario. Great location, and Minden has everything you need. You won't regret booking this unique retreat. D.
