Surrounded by Crown Land, Great Escape Cabins is a northern cabin and campground resort, situated within the beautiful French River Municipality. Located along the Murdock River as it enters the French River, we offer year-round accommodations for all types of outdoor adventurists. Providing our guests with a beautiful waterfront view, Great Escape Cabins is sure to bring you the vacation of your dreams!
Our general store includes all the forgotten essentials, live bait and fishing supplies.
The space
The Murdock River offers some of the best fishing around. Entering the waterway is a breeze using the small boat launch on our property. Alternatively, there is a public boat launch across the road, entering into the top of the French River.
The Murdock River freezes up every winter, providing the perfect spot for ice fishing!
Northern Ontario has amazing snowmobile trails. We are located just off of the C trail at highway 607.
The French River area offers an abundance of hunting opportunities, including grouse, waterfowl, moose, deer, and black bear.
Guest access
Enjoy a cup of coffee from an Adirondack chair, while enjoying the undisturbed views of the river. In the summertime, share a meal, and some laughter, with family and friends at one of the many river-view picnic tables.
With so many adventures to offer, its hard to decide what to do next! The summer months offer fishing, canoeing and hiking, just to name a few! In the winter, snowmobiling and ice fishing are a favourite among many!
