Days that fill themselves
A pool, a river, a fire on Fridays, and the village just down the path. Here’s what a week looks like.
This week at Alder Creek
Campfire & marshmallows
The week ends around the fire. Bring a story or just listen. The crackling does most of the talking.
Every Friday, 9pm
Morning yoga by the river
An hour of slow movement on the riverbank, before the day warms up. All levels, mats provided.
Tuesdays & Saturdays, 8am
Night market evening
Local makers, string lights and live music on the central meadow. Come hungry.
Every Wednesday, July–August
Always on, always here
Natural swimming pool
Open daily, June–September
A heated pool with a shallow end for the little ones, and deckchairs under the pines for everyone else.
Kayak & paddle rental
Daily from the boathouse
The river is calm here. Perfect for a first paddle. Life jackets and a dry bag included.
Worth the short trip
Farmers market in the village
Sunday mornings, 3 km
Cheese, peaches and honest bread. Go early, take the bike path along the river.
Ridge trail hike
Trailhead at 5 min
A 2-hour loop with the valley at your feet. Doable in sandals; better in shoes.
Bike loop of the two bridges
Bikes for rent at reception
Flat, shaded, and mostly along the water. The ice-cream stop halfway is non-negotiable.
