Message from Marrick's Landing 2008

Greetings from Marrick’s Landing,

From Marian & Rick

It is with mixed feelings that we are sending you this letter. We have sold Marrick’s Landing to Terry, Lisa Thomas and their son, Porter. We listed our property in the early summer, anticipating that it would be a few years before we would be writing this letter to you. We are going to miss you and our life at Marrick’s Landing but are also excited about the new direction that we are taking.

Although the process happened much faster than any of us anticipated, we are all very excited about the transition. We feel that Terry and Lisa have the same vision that we do for the future of Marrick’s Landing – and for that we are very happy. We have enjoyed the relationships that we have forged with you and thank you for your support in all that we have done here. We wish you all the best and trust that your continuing stays at Marrick’s Landing will be full of wonderful memories.

From Lisa & Terry

We are thrilled to be entering our first year here at Marrick’s Landing. We know Porter is excited too and looking forward to meeting some new playmates. We have no plans to make any major changes to the Resort. We want to ensure you that we are continuing to be Pet Friendly because we believe

Pets are Family Too!

Over the next year you will notice a few enhancements to the property and we are looking forward to the new Meet and Greet Hot Dog BBQ with the Monday night Bon Fire. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us. We are looking forward to meeting you all and extending a warm welcome from Marrick’s Landing.

Pet Policy
We are not changing our policy on pets. We love animals ( no dog right now , but we have 4 cats)
We have four requests to ensure you and other other guests will enjoy their stay.
1. You must clean up after your pet.
2. Your pet must be on a leash.
3. Your pet must be in a kennel if you have to leave them in the cottage alone.
4. You must provide proof of a flea treatment.
We thank you in advance and can not wait to meet you and your pets.

Winter in the Kawarthas

Winter continues to be a beautiful season here in the Kawarthas. Activities in the area include a huge skating rink – on the bay by Owl Cottage, weather permitting. Also in the area we have over 50 kms of cross-country ski trails. We can provide a ski pass and hot chocolate for your outing. Bring your own or we can arrange skis and boots for you. We can also arrange for cross-country ski lessons with a qualified instructor. We have snowshoes that you can borrow to hike the trails or you can walk to the Burleigh Falls lock on country roads. Mallard and Blue Heron Cottages now boast personal outdoor hot tubs for your pleasure in the winter months. Relax in front of the gas fireplace and listen to your choice of music on the Galaxy satellite stations. If you are interested in some pampering, we can arrange a day for you at a nearby spa. Check the “Winter” page on our Web site for details.

New Fishing Regulations
You may have heard that the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) have been planning for changes to the regulations. There are a few changes to our fishing regulations this year. The biggest change for our guests will be for pickerel/walleye. With a sport licence the limit is now 4 (instead of 6) with only one fish being larger that 18.1 inches. A conservation licence limit is still 2 however with only one being larger that 18.1 inches Please check our web site (Home page, Fishing Season link) for a direct link to the MNR web site.
Again this year we are going to be an official Weigh / Recording station for the Buckhorn District Tourist Association’s Big Fish Contest. Enter your catches with us and you could win a plaque for the biggest Walleye (Pickerel), Muskie, Largemouth Bass, Small mouth Bass, Crappie, Perch or Carp. Contest details will be available in early May

Thanks to our Returning Guests
After five years of staying with us, we will give you a $50.00 gift certificate to use for your next visit. Up to this point, we have thanked 55 of you in this manner and appreciate your loyalty. We look forward to recognizing more of our customers this coming year and in the years to come. Our Comment Cards and chats with our guests continue to be a great source of ideas for improvements and suggestions. We are always looking for ways to make your stay an enjoyable and memorable one. Please take the time to fill out our cards or send us an e-mail.

We are looking forward to meeting you and your family soon.
