Description
//I get lots of messages on here, I’ll likely only reply to those who I think will be the right fit for the work and group of workawayers//
Current needs:
-Renovation help
-General labour
-Video editing
My outdoor adventure property is situated on 150 acres of riverfront land in Muskoka, Ontario. There is over 2km of private riverfront, and two waterfalls. I own a house that I’m renovating on the river across from it. I guide adventure tours at the land. My main business is excavating & landscaping though for cottages on nearby lakes. Pay is $18/hr. Will pay $20-25/hr for experienced skilled trades. 25-40 hours per week, 6 days a week. Includes accommodations, trips in the car, tourist and outdoor experiences.
This spring workaway adventure, when I plan to host about 2-3 at a time, will take place Febrary to May 10th or so . You will be staying in a cabin, or house. We often venture into town to the community centre (gym, basketball court, squash court), to play sports, get groceries etc. Guests should have experience in the outdoors, have appropriate attire etc. Most of the photos are from the summer workaway, but spring is colder. I also produce maple syrup in March so you will have an opportunity to see how that is done.
The work will consist of renovating a house that I just bought. It will also include maintaining two outdoor rinks for a nearby city in the middle of the night until the end of February.
I have done lots of backpacking and travelling myself, and know what type of experience guests are looking for. I take guests out into the community to meet some locals, do local hikes and lots of other recreational activities, see tourist spots in the area, and possibly up for bigger trips like a few night backcountry canoe /camping trip in central or northern Ontario. A truly Canadian experience.

Living off grid in the Canadian Forest. Your host is a paddler, maple syrup producer, builder, and lumberjack, so learning a lot about the rural country life in the forests of Central Ontario.
