View Answer  What is the difference between Lodge Style Rooms and Suites and Cottage accommodation?
Answer:
The primary difference between lodge style and suite and cottage accommodation is the suite and cottage accommodation has a living room area separate from the bedroom area. Suite and cottage accommodation also has a deck and a vanity area in the living room. Lodge style (hotel style) accommodation is just one room with a bathroom, no sitting room or living room exists with this type of room.
View Answer  What is the difference between a one-bedroom suite and an Edgewater Beach Bungalow?
Answer:
The main difference between a one-bedroom suite and a one-bedroom cottage is location and groupings. Our Terrace Suites are generally located near the water and the decks face the water. The suites are usually grouped in series of three to five units. The Edgewater cottages are located past our beach area and not all have a lake view. The units are either independent cottages or are in groups of two. They all have deck areas as well. We also have larger independent cottages that are two and three bedrooms that are located throughout the property.

View Answer  What is the children's program like?
Answer:
The children's program here at Clevelands House is one of the best programs offered in Canada . It operates daily with the exception of Sundays and is similar to a day camp with many planned activities such as arts and crafts, theme days, nature walks and sports activities. The children are grouped according to age, for example 3 & 4 year olds are one group, 5 & 6 another. Our program caters to children ages 3 to 11, teens and pre-teens, as well as an infants and toddlers program.

The Nursery & Toddler programs run from 9:45 am to 12:30 p.m. and then from 2 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. We have within our Toddler area age specific toys and a small-scale climber. There are activities for the "little ones" to do that are geared toward their capabilities and again the toddlers are grouped together according to age.

The regular program runs from 9:45am to 4:30pm and again from 6:15pm to 7:30pm on the nights it is offered. The children are divided into groups according to age in the following categories: 3 / 4 yr. olds, 5 / 6 yr. olds, 7-9 yr. olds and 9-11 yr. olds. There is a sports program offered for the older children starting at age 7. This sports program would have a greater focus on sports activities and less arts and crafts. Lunch is served during the day program with menus geared towards the appetites of children. The evening program includes dinner and a different children's entertainer each evening it is offered.

The teen program offers various planned activities throughout the day that the teens can join in on as they interest them.

For all activities a daily agenda is given to parents so that if they want to meet up with their children they know where their group will be.

View Answer  Can I take my child out of the program during the day?
Answer:
Children can be taken in and out of the program as the parents wish, the parents need only to sign out the child with the counsellor. Upon registration the parents can indicate if they wish their child to be able to come and go as they choose. A full agenda will be given upon registration as well as general program information.
