Social & Wellness
Retreats
Unplug to Recharge
At The Lodge at Pine Cove, social and wellness retreats are designed around one simple idea, life feels better when you step away from the noise.
Step foot on the quiet shores of the French River, where life slows, conversations deepen, and days begin to feel like they belong to you again.

It’s an environment that naturally brings people back to themselves.

Accommodations
Where comfort meets wilderness.
The Lodge at Pine Cove features 20 beautifully designed private cottages, each unique and thoughtfully set within the natural landscape.
Crafted with understated elegance, they blend simplicity with quiet luxury.
Inside, guests enjoy handmade wool rugs, comfortable luxury bedding, screened porches, dining spaces, and fully equipped kitchens.
Each cottage has its own character, with flexible options including private cottages, private rooms in shared cottages, or shared accommodations for retreat groups.
Your Own Private Island
Take a day trip to Shangri-La…
Imagine an island with a grand old cottage sitting amongst the white pines, no other buildings anywhere nearby where you can hold your sessions in the absolute peace of wilderness. Ten minutes boat ride from the lodge and you are there. Interested in this idea? Contact us and we can discuss this with you.

Expect:
- Fresh, chef-prepared breakfasts, lunches, and dinners
