Things to do on and around Cransley

Relax on the deck – Last Mountain Lake and Lumsden Beach to the north, Long Lake River (or Last Mountain Creek) and the marsh to the east, the secluded lake (the southern part of Last Mtn Lake) and Craven to the south.

See how much wildlife you can see – deer, coyotes, beaver, owls, pelicans and lots of song birds

Take a short walk to the beaver pond (on The Nature Conservancy property)

Kayak on the creek and head into the marsh to see the birds and fish

Challenge someone to a game of Bocce Ball on the native prairie

Take a ride over the old trail in the Saskatoon Picking Machine (golf cart)

Hike up to the brick patio and enjoy the view from above (chairs on patio)


“And as I pondered my mind raced back to other springs in other places across this broad country to recall for a moment the rejoicing of their sights and sounds. The first to mind was boyhood on the Prairies with a springtime trip to an uncle’s place near Boharm, Sask. I heard the first call of the meadow lark….it was there I learned to mimic the lark’s call which I still remember sounds something like I was here a year ago.” Bob Phillips 1957
