On your way to Elk Lake we are off of Hwy 65. We are a small homestead farm with a tiny house for our guests. We live on 40 acres surrounded by poplar and pine and some cedar forest and we have built hiking trails. Nearby activities are hiking around Temiskaming Shores and visiting Elk Lake for swimming or fishing. This land is special because we are trying to steward the land and have permaculture gardens.
