Mashkinonje lodge is a gem. The location is terrific, but what really impressed me were the details that really enhance a get-away. First of all, our cottage was well stocked with the essentials such as a decent coffee maker, kettle and toaster. I was pleasantly surprised to find a supply of aluminum foil, cling wrap and baggies in the cupboards - those items just makes life easier. Second, there were chairs throughout the property - in front of the cottages, around the fire pits, along the dock and at the beach. And third, there were sufficient non-motorized water devices (kayaks, sit-upons, canoe and paddle board) that could be used by guests (not rented, no additional fee). There was always something available to go paddling and enjoy nature at its best. The owners and staff are friendly, professional and helpful. We would definitely go back.
