A delightful afternoon at the Village for our first visit. Interpreters were friendly and knowledgeable and the time of year (September) made it less busy so we had more time to browse and chat without interruption. Definitely recommend it as somewhere to spend a few hours learning about our past.

What a great experience! Really enjoyed the day. The staff were AMAZING with their knowledge as well as their kindness. Immerse yourself in the 1880’s and see how much has changed AND how much really has not. Challenge - find the origins of IBM and the “first” computer…. You’ll be quite surprised as well as impressed at what our ancestors were capable of. We will be back again.

Just like any other similar museum, this is out in the open with different dwellings showing how life was a couple of centuries back. But what sets this open air museum apart is the knowledgeable staff and how friendly they are. It is not just the recreation of the old houses but also how people used to live with a musician, with a few people knitting etc. that takes you back into time.

Lang Pioneer Village is a wonderful experience. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and bring the history to life in such engaging ways. On top of that, they are friendly and welcoming, which makes exploring the village even more enjoyable. You leave not only having learned something new, but also feeling like you’ve stepped back in time with people who truly care about sharing the history.

Had a wonderful visit. It was fantastic talking to the manager in the lobby. All of the staff on the homes and businesses were well versed and so great to talk to. Watching the jacquard loom in use was a great treat. My daughter is now so inspired to approach the weaving guild in our home city. Was definitely worth the trip and rates as one of our favorite villages in the province. Thank you Lang

Love the dedication of the staff in preserving history and teaching the ways of the past. A must visit for everyone.

Really enjoy the tour of this Pioneer Village with all of the activities being demonstrated and sights to see. So much to see and experience, and the period dress of the participants adds to the atmosphere.

I would give this place 10 stars if I could. Beautiful art selection and a complete experience by combining it with nature. Calmness and relaxation from the moment we got in, they even offered umbrellas so we could appreciate the art under the rain. The owner is a lovely person. My son speaks about her still today. There were two ponds and she took the time to show them to my son, play with him, and answer all the imaginative questions a four years old could have. Amazing experience!

It's a great place. Not far from ptbo. It's very peaceful and all the art pieces are very good. Takes about an hour but it's worth it. Beautiful stones are carved in Zimbabwe from lava rocks. They are special on their own. I recommend you visit this place once.

Absolutely stunning outdoor Art Gallery with a kind and accommodating host. Beautiful art in a picturesque setting. I can wait to visit again. Thank you for your hospitality!!! My friends and I had a wonderful birthday celebration.

Absolutely stunning outdoor art gallery. Each piece was meticulously crafted and detailed. Definitely worth the drive. Admission is free but donations are accepted and proceeds go to a good cause. All pieces are also available for purchase.

This gallery featuring sculptures and other art created by artists from Zimbabwe is a little off the beaten track, but well worth a visit. Every year, the owner brings in an artist in residence from Zimbabwe. Apparently, he just left yesterday as it’s getting too cold! The 7 day access to the outdoor exhibits closes tomorrow for the winter season. However, the owner is still available by appointment.

We one over 20 sculptures and metal pieces from Zimart and we absolutely love them. Fran is a truly wonderful host, and her beautiful outdoor gallery is something that must be experienced. Can't say enough great things about Zimart. A must see if you are in the region. Can't wait to get our next piece. Here are just a few of the works we have collected over the years.

Awesome! I cannot say enough about this very unique outdoor sculpture garden, set in a quiet, green and magical rural location. The art pieces are stunning, sculpted from very unique Zimbabwean rock. The gentle Zimbabwean artist-in-residence took us on a wonderful tour and explained how he sculpted and "revealed" his pieces.

Sure! Here’s a short and simple review you can use: ⸻ I recently visited Rice Lake Private Resort and had a wonderful time. The atmosphere was peaceful, the views were beautiful, and it was the perfect place to relax. I felt truly happy being there and would definitely love to go back again.

The lake is a haven of beauty and relaxation, where the natural landscape offers a serene escape.

What can I say - an amazing place to go and a fantastic place to fish. Oh and on top of this, you should definitely go here if you want to relax. It truly is such a great lake

I live in the area and think it's great! Great sunsets, hours of boating in many directions, but it's a bit weedy in some spots.

I spent the day at a beautiful cottage in Cobourg with gorgeous views overlooking Rice Lake. Sadly, all that I can mention at this time are the stunning views because due to poor weather while visiting, all water excursions were canceled. This review is to-be-continued.

Most beautiful sunsets .. fantastic fishing .. the lake was nice & refreshing a couple of weeks ago! A must see, close to Toronto

Nice lake for canoeing, fishing, and boating. A lot of motor boat traffic. Too weedy to swim much but still very nice. Great place to visit a cottage and hang out.

Loved this course. Staff was friendly, grounds were maintained well and had a variety of challenging holes. I will definitely go back.

Excellent course, course shape was amazing. Great difficultly level. Course staff was kind and informative. No issues with the Marshall's. Green speeds are like lightning nice and firm the grounds crew to a phenomenal job keeping the course in excellent shape. Big plus for me is that for one of the higher end courses in the area they are still accepting cash which personally makes me like this course even more. Would highly recommend if in the Durham region Kawartha lakes region worth the drive. Big thanks most certainly will be returning.

Great golf course all around!! 5 starts forsure, from clubhouse experience to course conditions, this course has it all! Played in late August with light rain the night before, my partner and I were late and they had no issue with it. Tee boxes were in fantastic shape, nice and flat tee decks! Fairways were well maintained, bunkers played nicely as well. Greens were quick which is always fun, but the consistency was a little off throughout the round (some greens were slower than others). The course layout is great, very challenging on some holes and makes you think twice about your shots. The perfect way to end the round or any wagers is with a "19th hole" island green, very cool concept that can make things interesting. (especially when you stick one to 10ft 🏌️‍♂️)

Great course. 5 stars for sure! Good price too with our coupon. We had some fries afterwards and they were unfortunately not so great. I think the oil was just turned on so they came out soggy and oily. A golf course this nice should have good fries, just some constructive feedback. Will be back!

Tremendous course! The conditions were great especially for October. The greens were are airrated but otherwise the course was in spectacular shape. Nice and firm and fast, tight fairways, penalizing rough. The bunkers are some of the best I've ever played on, including private courses.

Great course, challenging and fairways are in great shape. They have even thrown in a 19th bonus hole (beer hole). Some very tight and challenging holes.

Course was pretty wet, which we've had alot of rain so was expected. Very pretty course, well laid out and more than adequately difficult. One of the best experiences I've had at a golf course.

For a stay and play, Bellmere offers great value and a beautiful golf course. The cottages have the essentials. Check-in instructions were clear and easy. Golf course was well maintained and challenging! Would recommend. Would return.

Unfortunately, me and our group will not book another stay and play package with Bellmere or Great Blue Resorts. My group and I had a Friday and Saturday round booked through Great Blue Resorts. We showed up for our tee time to find out our tee time on the Friday was mistakenly cancelled (on their end). This was at 2:30 in October so we booked a tee time at a nearby course and left to beat the dark. Before leaving, we asked if we could leave our bags and food. There was a prompt ‘no’ to that request. Played our round and had to hurry back because of 4 missed calls from the desk to get our keys before they closed. Came back and settled in at 8PM or so. Some food had spilt on some pillows— could front desk offer anything to help? ‘No’. Played our second round, had a great day. It took the course a month and a half to refund the rounds after 20 calls to different people. Every time we spoke, someone promised a call back. After the month of hassle the course ended up refunding us $20 a person for the round. We committed a work day to drive up and play, left the course to pay to play somewhere else and couldn’t even use a fridge for our food. Horrendous service. The GM Chris or Mike, were so condescending and cyclical, you might as well talk to yourself. I’m not asking anything for free, but I am asking to be treated like a customer. This review comes from a person who really enjoyed the first time I booked a stay and play package, so much so that we booked again the year after. You be the judge on how this was handled, but we were all disappointed.

Had our yearly boys golf trip, 24 of us. Rented out several cabins and they are very luxurious and spacious. Each having bbq’s and fire pits. The staff is always very nice and helpful. The course was in fantastic shape as always. Extra activities like the pool and tennis courts were perfect after playing a couple rounds. Having everything within walking distance made everything so convenient. Always a great time and thats why we always pick this spot every year. Not expensive at all and worth the price. Great golf, great views and dun atmosphere.

Went to do a stay and play. Course was very good. Accommodation was excellent. Nice new cottages/trailers. Well equipped and very clean.

I’ve only been there once to play the course. Loved it!!! Very scenic and the course is well kept. Greens are tough! It would be nice to clean up the facilities a bit, particularly the washrooms. I’ll be back!!

Just there for the golf. The challenging course management type of track was in great condition. Staff was friendly. Cart paths lay out was poor and directional signage is required.

We booked an overnight & 2 rounds of golf for 12 friends. We were not able to get possession of our cottages (4 to a cottage) until 3:00pm despite tee times at 1:45. Played 18 & arrived back at the pro shop short after 6:00pm to get our keys. The units were clean & tidy, but only had 1 cup coffee maker, no dish soap, one bedroom had one electric outlet on the opposite end so one of our group couldn’t plug in his Cpap machine. We couldn’t play the 2nd day due to weather but the club wouldn’t provide a refund, instead gave us a free future round voucher. This facility is an hour & a half + from our homes and to drive there & back to play one round is somewhat cost prohibitive. All in all, the experience was somewhat underwhelming!

My favorite quiet place to be.... Rushing water, sunshine, and serenity 💜

Great hiking and scenery. No longer actively maintained though.

Good place for swimming

Volunteers were super friendly and informative. It was a really cool and interesting experience...worth checking out!

Serene and tranquil, you go back two centuries in history! Beautiful Views!

Great place to walk your bike or ride your dog

Great spot to relax, explore or picnic.
