Happy Saturday ,

I hope everyone is doing well!

The Manitouwabing Outpost is happy to be a retailer for these amazing bunkies.

The ones shown here are in stock ready to go , we also can install them and deliver too ! They take about a weekend to put up and all of them are 160 square feet or less so no permits required.

We will have a model up at The Outpost for everyone to see and take a look on the May long weekend.

Come by for an ice cream and take a look 😃

Hi all , I would like to first off thank Heather for her years of running the Manitouwabing Outpost here in McKellar.
What you built here has brought so many families together in fun times while at the cottage and locals that live here year round.

I would like to formally announce the The Manitouwabing Outpost will be open this summer (May Long Weekend).

Our names are Matt and Amanda Schell and we are the new owners.
We are so honoured to have this opportunity to continue the success Heather has brought here.

A little introduction to ourselves. We are local and live about 7 minutes away from the store. I was raised here in McDougall with a family cottage and recently moved here full time about 4 years back. We currently own and operate a construction company as well and we look forward to adding this opportunity too.
My wife Amanda will be running the store with me on the backend and my son helping in the store as well.
We are brining back all the stuff that was offered and more !
From ice cream , clothes , propane, fuel and boat rentals. +++++.
We are currently working on a liquor license as well to sell your favourite alcoholic beverages and possibly a food truck !
This is all new to us , but we are very very excited.

Please come back to the page for more updates. ,

Best Regards ,

Matt and Amanda.

In 2017, my husband Dave and I opened The Outpost with the hope of creating a little seasonal spot that felt like home. Dave, who many of you knew from Camp Manitou, poured his heart into this dream with me.

In 2018, just weeks before we were set to open, Dave passed away unexpectedly. With the support of incredible staff, friends, and family, I kept The Outpost going — year after year — because it mattered. And because our customers made it all worthwhile.

Last spring, I made the difficult decision to put the store on the market. And this spring, I’ve made another: I will not be opening The Outpost for the 2025 season.

This has not been an easy choice. But after 8 summers, it’s time for me to take a deep breath and a little time for myself.

To our loyal customers: thank you. You allowed us to be part of your summers, your memories, and your traditions. And to the amazing team that stood by me season after season — thank you for being the heart of The Outpost.

Wishing everyone a safe and happy summer. 

Heather
