The Cottages


The cottages at Elk Ridge sit in the boreal forest just off the golf course, a short drive from the Waskesiu townsite and Prince Albert National Park. Each one is freestanding, with an open-concept main floor, a fully equipped kitchen, a gas fireplace, and in-suite laundry. They are a step up in space and finish from the cabins, and they suit families, couples travelling together, and groups who want room to spread out. Below you will find the three cottage types we offer, along with what makes each one different. If you are not sure which cottage is right for your group, give us a call and we will be happy to help you choose.

What is the difference between a cabin and a cottage at Elk Ridge?

The cottages are generally larger, more open-concept, and include in-suite laundry and separate shower-and-tub bathrooms. The cabins are more traditional in layout and a bit more compact. Both are freestanding and sit in the boreal forest. If you want laundry on-site and more bathroom space, the cottages are usually the better fit.

Are the cottages pet-friendly?

Some cottages are pet-friendly and some are not. If you are travelling with a pet, please call the resort at 1-306-663-4653 before booking so we can confirm a pet-friendly cottage is available for your dates. A nightly pet fee applies. Pets staying in a cottage that is not designated pet-friendly will result in a $250 deep cleaning fee.

Which cottage is best for a large family or group?

The Poplar. It sleeps up to ten across three bedrooms, with a bathroom for each, plus a loft master. The Willow and the Evergreen each sleep up to six.

Which cottage works best if we don’t want stairs?
