I left the Edge today from a weekend yoga retreat and it was hard to leave!
The property is beautiful and well-maintained - it would be especially amazing to visit in the earlier fall with all the coloured leaves.
Every space we were in was so clean, you can tell the staff work hard.
I stayed in Dreamer’s Hill and it was a really nice space. I was happy to have my own ensuite bathroom but may try a cabin next time for a different experience. The bed was really comfortable and the bedding was so soft I need to buy some for myself. There was a tea station which was nice to use in the evening. Point’s North always had hot water, a few snacks and tea/coffee available outside of meal times.
The food was amazing. There was more than enough available at every meal time and they use all local meats and produce. I think I will be full for the whole week from how much I ate!
It’s a nice place to go and disconnect for a few days and meet new people with similar intentions. I would visit again!

My stay was amazing from the moment I arrived. The room was very comfortable. The food was great. The entire team was very helpful and I felt at home, almost as if I was a close friend come to visit. I am planning a return trip soon.

My experience at Northern Edge was life changing. The leaders at the Retreat were compassionate, experienced and provided a safe and authentic experience. My Canopy cabin "Loon Echo" was glorious! Watching the stars through the clear-roof was a real highlight. The food was beyond my expectations and every meal was an experience in itself.

What a special place. The food was terrific; it was thoughtfully prepared, and there was always more than enough. So much thoughtful care and attention has been put into making the grounds memorable, with so many beautiful flowers and places to gather or to sit on your own and look out at the lake. I also really loved my cabin. It was clean, the sheets were soft, the bed was comfortable, and it had windows looking out into the forest. The facilitators all did a great job helping the group come together and leading the yoga, hiking, paddling and other activities. All three were approachable, skillful teachers and a lot of fun. A great experience. I will be back!

It was a perfect weekend! We met great people, had awesome activities in the beautiful winter forest and lake, campfires and lots of stories. The meals by Chef Gregor were beyond what was expected. The food is some of the best ever eaten. The leaders/family go above and beyond to make sure you are happy. I felt like I was visiting long lost cousin. You need to go there!

I’ve never experienced a place so special: Magic skies, water and earth surround this oasis; A place that is supported by nature and the stewardship of the Lucier family. Northern Algonquin is a place to reflect, grow and be nourished. I attended a Heart Wood Retreat and felt very privileged to have the opportunity to experience the openness and receptivity of each member. The meals were amazing, made with care and generosity. The cabins are clean and close to the main gathering spot. The forest is animated and speaks of the wonderful work that happens here. I hope to have another opportunity to return.

I have been to the Northern Edge 3 times now and each time is wonderful! The facilities are in the middle of beautiful nature, a sparkling lake perfect for paddling, with well designed yoga rooms, sauna, and a variety of cabin accommodations. The vibe is relaxing and social that supports mental relaxation. And the food! Clean, nutritious and gourmet eating that tastes out of this world! Why would you not come here 😀

My partner and I had a transformative experience at this retreat, Getting the Love you Want, led by Anna and Tim at Northern Edge. We were feeling disconnected prior to attending and we left feeling more connected and committed to one another than we'd felt in years. I highly recommend this wonderful workshop for anyone struggling in their relationship, or for anyone who is interested in strengthening their relationship bond. We learned so many new tools for communication and connection. Northern Edge was a perfect setting for this retreat and it's beauty and peacefulness gave us the space to truly focus our energy towards the workshop. Being fully disconnected from technology was a key component as well! The food was divine, we were nourished and so taken care of. And the staff were absolutely welcoming and warm.
