Amazing Maria Lake Renovations

Maria Lake is an incredible mini-lodge, copied by many but matched by none. A great camp with unique characteristics on a legendary Canadian lake. Enter Maria Lake managers Shane and Karen Creasy. 2022 was their first year managing Maria and judging by the guests’ comments, we hope it won’t be their last. Shane and Karen are much more than just great camp managers – they are Master carpenters who never sit still. They were a major part of the amazing additions at the main lodge in 2021 and spring 2022. It has been awhile since Maria received some good TLC and their work on Maria this year was just as excellent. They cleaned up the main grounds with extensive pruning and cleaning, ripped out the old boardwalk to the cabins creating a natural path, and added new porches to the cabins. But they were not done yet as they wanted to tackle a long-discussed remodeling of the Maria mini-lodge. We did not need much cajoling with such talented people on board.  

The mini-lodge at Maria received an extensive and fantastic facelift. The front porch was incorporated into the main building and large wrap-around windows added, providing an awesome lake view. The interior walls were treated with beautiful pine siding and the former interior dropped ceiling removed to open up the room. The results were amazing and 2023 guests are really going to enjoy it.

And that’s not all ! 2023 will feature the addition of two new boats, all new motors, and an extension on the frontdock.

Maria Lake – Canada’s finest mini-lodge – Gangler’s just raised the standard we set so long ago!
