Here is another favourite to add to my Summer Memories collection.
This post takes us back to an overnight stay on Gander River in June of 2023.
Whenever my husband Paul has to travel for work in our beautiful province, I often accompany him. Particularly enjoyable are the trips that take us somewhere we haven’t visited before. And when we can combine business and pleasure, the trips are all the more fun.
This time Paul’s work took him to a business associate’s cabin on the Gander River, to design an extension and renovation for the client. The long boat in the photo above took us there, the only way to access the site.
In spite of the high winds, and getting splashed by spray over the side of the boat, the temps were warm and the views were lovely.
Here below is a shot of the little guest cabin we stayed in on the property. So cozy!
The Gander River is well-known for its salmon pools and outfitting business. To learn more, check out this site.

Time to eat, sit back and relax.
Our gracious hosts provided a delicious grilled steak supper and refreshments at the main cabin.
I would love to go back there someday!

Wow, that is lovely! Such a beautiful setting. When my husband and I were both employed, we would try to go together when one of us had a business trip to an interesting place. I have to say, though, none of the places we went were as lovely as your photos.

Hi Marie. Most of our business trips were not as lovely and enjoyable as this one, that’s for certain. But for the majority, we did manage to have a little fun along the way. Thanks for stopping by!

🥲Just one night, and this was 2023. So Vivian was all alone. We hated to have to go anywhere for more than one night after Maisie passed. 🙁

It is. We’ve seen and enjoyed a few places we probably never would have otherwise.

Lots of cabins along the river, but peaceful is the perfect word for it.

It is. And quite private, as it’s only accessible by boat.
