Since 1917, Bartlett Lodge has been an Algonquin Park landmark. Centrally located on Algonquin Park's Cache Lake, about halfway between the East and West Gates on Highway 60, east of Huntsville and the Muskoka Lakes, Bartlett Lodge resort is a brief boat ride from the Landing.
Like all Algonquin Park Lakes, peace and quiet abounds on Cache Lake. The magic begins the moment you step aboard the boat that takes you across the lake to Bartlett Lodge, an Ontario resort rich in Algonquin Park history. As the boat leaves Cache Lake Landing, you will be entering another world — a world where tranquility and nature blend with comfort and luxury. With only 38 resort guests, Bartlett Lodge can extend to their guests excellent personal service and attention to detail.
Tastefully decorated with comfort in mind, the lakefront cottages are well appointed, with many thoughtful items, such as a coffee maker, fridge, and even their own canoe. In keeping with the environment, there are no telephones or televisions in any of the cabins.
Bartlett Lodge has an inviting, historical atmosphere which, combined with the friendly hospitality and location tucked away from the crowds ensures a secluded stay at the heart of nature.
