An Ojibway Day

The routine of the day starts with a morning bell which awakens guests island-wide, followed by the breakfast bell. Guests are summoned to each meal by bell. Activities such as canoeing, fishing, swimming, birding, tennis, basketball and walking the island’s trails fill the daylight hours. There are spectacular wild flowers and trees to be identified along with countless birds including nesting warblers. For those guests with children at Keewaydin, the canoe trip camp at the other end of the island, visiting camp is always a highlight. Ojibway guests are welcome at all Keewaydin events.

For those guests who want to spend full days on the water, there are canoes and kayaks. You can leave for the day with a lunch picnic made by the kitchen or a lunch for you to cook over an open fire. If fishing is the purpose of the adventure you will find walleye, smallmouth bass, northern pike and lake trout, all of which you can bring back to Ojibway or cook on your own campfire. Extended adult and family canoe trips are also available. Click here for more information on overnight canoe camping.

Non-stop activity is available but not required. Some come to Ojibway to sit on their own private dock or porch, read and relax. Evenings under the stars are magical watching the aurora borealis dance across the sky.
