Welcome to

Serenity at last

Nestled in a peaceful setting among the cedar trees on the lakeshore of the spring-fed lake of Manitou, Turtle Creek is the ideal place to experience true relaxation. A tranquil, secluded oasis for those seeking a restful change and longing to be reconnected with nature.

"Everything here is so clean and well cared for."

"The views of the lake ensure a peaceful, relaxing stay. There are six lodges and this week each one is rented but you wouldn’t know it. It’s very quiet and the buildings are situated to create a feeling of privacy. We definitely are coming back."

Your rustic cottage awaits

All lodges are well-equipped and ready to welcome you. All include a stone fireplace, built-in stoves, refrigerators and private 3-piece baths. Cooking and eating utensils, blankets and pillows are also provided.

All that’s left is to settle in, unwind and just “be”.

pristine waterfront

Plunge into Lake Manitou’s crystal clear waters and feel immediately refreshed. If you’re feeling adventurous, why not venture out in a canoe, kayak, paddleboat or stand-up paddleboard?

All included in the rental price.

world-class fishing

Lake Manitou isn’t just great for swimming – it’s also favoured by the locals for the excellent fishing.

It’s never crowded, either. As Lake Manitou is the largest lake in a lake, there’s plenty of space to find that perfect spot to spend a relaxing afternoon. Rent a boat from us or bring your own and use our on-site boat launch.

And a prime location, too.

Turtle Creek offers a peaceful getaway in your own luxurious, rustic cabin, but unrivaled privacy doesn’t have to come at the cost of convenience. We’re just a short 20-minute drive away from all the amenities you could need, including shopping, grocery stores, drug stores, a hospital, a liquor store, restaurants and even two golf courses. 10 minutes to Garden’s Gate Restaurant, and only 20 minutes to the ferry. 


What better place to call your home away from home?
