| Rainbow
Cottages Resort is located on a 118 acre expanse of private
property on the Otonabee River, just north of Rice Lake.
While you are a guest of Rainbow, you can do as much -
or as little - as you like. Perhaps you wish to do nothing
more strenuous than contemplate the seemingly magical
shapes the clouds make as they leisurely travel across
the blue sky. Or perhaps a brisk walk and guided tour
of the worlds' largest rice lake plains tallgrass prairie
restoration site is more your style. In the winter, experience
dogsledding - or the comforting fire. There are many things
to do at Rainbow throughout the seasons.
Experienced
tour guides lead tours throughout the seasons. Topics
covered include marshlands, maple syrup, woodlands, wildlife,
birding, forgotten friends (insects, amphibians, reptiles),
varied ecosystems, canoeing, tree and plant identification,
agricultural, dogsledding. Wonderful photography opportunities
- amateur and professional photographers welcome. Each
tour is personally tailored to individual group interest,
ability and size. |
