You may know that Nick, our pillar of strength, is elemental to the 6K brand. He always strode around the property patiently uplifting every member of our family while marching back and forth feeding chickens, clearing land, collecting and packaging the foods you choose at the farm store to feed your family, performing all manner of tasks on an endless list that got longer with time.
When Nick's health took a nose dive last year, most things stayed the same, but our farmhouse changed. We converted our rugged mountain retreat into a haven for weary travelers to rest and rejuvenate in the fresh mountain air. We installed enough beds to sleep twenty or more guests in style, with a sundeck to soak up the mountain views in the peacefulness of our farm.
With Nick's vision from his hospital bed, we created Big Bear Lodge, a boutique farmhouse with six bedrooms and four bathrooms ideally situated for hosting family events such as weddings, reunions, holiday get togethers and retreats. There is plenty of room to park RV trailers with hookups, host a bonfire, cook dinner on the barbecue, and share some quality time with your loved ones in the magical place we have called home for over twenty six years.
The antiques we cherish are still there, as well as the Kodiak bear and the Canadian Grizzly on display for guests to admire. The big kitchen is grand and equipped with every utensil, as well as a state of the art esspresso machine. Feed an army in this house, as we have for so many years, with ease and delight. Share our sweeping views over the mountains and valleys below from the wall to wall windows, while your mind clears and your body rests in the peace of the mountain.
During your stay, explore the wilderness, hike the Bluenose Hiking Trails, consider the magical Aberdeen Columns, take your kids fishing at the lakes, go canoeing, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, skiing, hunting, as well as any other outdoor pursuit you can imagine. At the end of the day, make your return to this peaceful, healthy, restful place where you lay your head in the home that nurtures our family for generations.
Nick is beginning to stride around as he once did, as he recovers his strength. He's significantly slower, his list is understandably short, but his smile is as wide as ever and his dreams are bigger than the mountains he calls home. We'll one day return to the farmhouse to watch our children grow the next generation of farmers, but in the meantime, we'd love to share the mountain with you.
We invite you to relax, pull up a stump, tell your story and share in the beauty of Bluenose Mountain! Book online or reach out to share your needs so we can create a beautiful stay just for you and your favorite people.
See you on the mountain, and in the meantime,
Happy Trails
