About this property
Riviera Lodge - Large Renovated Waterfront Property
Spend time with family or friends on a large stunning 4000 sq ft waterfront property with 5 + 2 bedrooms located on the Sturgeon River just minutes, via boat, from the mouth of Lake Nipissing and a short 25 minute drive to North Bay.
Visit the Sturgeon River House Museum adjacent to the property. Bring your boat and partake in the phenomenal fishing that awaits you at the mouth of the river or on the lake.
This spacious lodge is located directly on the Sturgeon River with plenty of living area to enjoy inside and out.
Relax and unwind while overlooking the river. For your enjoyment there is plenty of outdoor seating and comfortable furniture on the main deck or down at the dock.
Internet is provided but due to the remote location reliability is not guaranteed. It’s an easy 4 hour drive from the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) and is the perfect place to get out of the city and enjoy nature.
A canoe, 2 kayaks, one paddle board, a fun mat and other water toys are available for your use. Should you wish to bring your own boat, there is a boat launch (for a fee) next door at the museum and plenty of boat parking on the property.
For the fishing enthusiast, Lake Nipissing, the 3rd largest lake entirely in Ontario, has some of the best fishing around including pickerel (walleye), smallmouth bass, muskie, and northern pike.
If heading out on the lake is not in your plans, wander over to the Sturgeon River House Museum to learn about the cultural and natural heritage of the Municipality of West Nipissing. The Museum presents the fur trade era from 1623 to 1879 and pioneer life in West Nipissing between 1878 and 1939.
Directly cross the road is the Theodore Fouriezos Wetland Trail. This land was donated by the family of the original owners of the Riviera Lodge. 3.2km of low impact trails are a mixture of wood chip covered paths and boardwalks. The trails feature a host of special interest stations, a bird viewing platform and a viewing platform that overlooks Cache Bay. Within the entire system, four wetland types are found: bog, fen, swamp, and marsh. The variety and abundance of flora and fauna are indicative of the numerous ecosystems and habitats, which are sustained by these wetlands.
Take a drive into town to check out the rivalry chip stands or the bakery featuring some local favourites such as sugar pie.
The property is pet friendly so pets are welcomed with prior approval and a small fee to help cover additional costs.
There is one 50" Smart TV on the property for your enjoyment. You are welcome to log in to your Netflix or Disney + accounts or watch the free internet channels that are available.
There is plenty of space between this property and neighbours giving you privacy. We do, however, ask that you be respectful and not make excessive noise that will cause a disturbance such as loud music, backyard gatherings, yelling, shouting, etc... Also, fireworks are prohibited on the premises at all times. There is a Renter's Code of Conduct for the short term rental. Guests booking the property will be required to complete the form which outlines these policies.
Please note, we only sleep 14 in beds. We do consider taking additional guests for a reasonable fee. Please inquire on the total number of guests and we can advise on options and pricing.
