There are a million ways to enjoy your stay in Tokeland. Some of our guests want to check-in, unplug, wander the property and eat every meal with us - we get it - that’s what we do everyday! For those who need a little more action after check-in, we’ve listed a handful of our favorite activities. Bear in mind that some of these ideas are good year round, but that would make the list too long!
Design your own itinerary, just make sure it includes our famous fried chicken!
WINTER

Storm watching
Razor clamming
Crabbing
Deep sea fishing
