We are always thinking of our Watervale families—during this uncertain time is no exception; we miss you all! We'd like to assure you that we are monitoring the situation and recommendations from our healthcare and government leaders. The safety of our guests and staff are of course our priority. We are optimistically working towards opening this summer and are exploring alternatives that will help us to do that while maintaining safety for all. Some of those ideas include modified meal plans, possibly with delivery to your cottages/room. We are remaining flexible with deposits and encourage you to reach out with any questions about your own situation. We will keep you updated as the summer unfolds...It's just impossible to predict where we'll all be even a month from now.

Above all else, we want you and your families to stay safe. Know that we will be here to welcome you back when that day arrives—hopefully at your usual time, or very soon!

Some great local info here...

Exploring this beach town with a great brewery, bakery, bike trails and more, you'll find plenty to do in Frankfort.

Chilly but beautiful.

If you've never experienced Watervale in the winter, it's a frozen treasure trove of secrets to discover.

If the cold just isn't for you, no judgment here--we look forward to seeing you in the summer! 😉🍧⛱🕶
