The perfect homebase
Your Hosts
Hello, we are Dawna and Barry Skrudland, your hosts at Riding Mountain House. We invite you to experience one of the most comfortable and conveniently located properties in Clear Lake Country. Since we reside on the property, we are available to answer questions, help you navigate the area and make recommendations for local attractions. We look forward to welcoming you to an adult-only getaway where you can rest, recharge and explore. Come share this four season paradise with us and experience all that Riding Mountain National Park has to offer.

The Area
Riding Mountain House is just steps away from Riding Mountain National Park where guests can enjoy easy access to the park. A two-minute drive to the park gate or walk to downtown Wasagaming and Clear Lake via the Onanole Trail. You are 1.5 km from restaurants, shops, a movie theatre, museums, a marina and a beach. The area is well known for wildlife like black bears, moose, elk, and so much more. The park offers extensive hiking and bike trails in the summer and cross-country ski, skating and snowshoe trails in the winter. Rent a paddleboard or kayak in the park and head to one of the many lakes nearby and let your adventure begin. Or rent a fat bike in the winter and go explore.
- Value was excellent. We made use of the kitchen for dinner and the breakfast was good. The hottub was very nice to try out and the sauna looked and smelled good, although we didn't have time to try it. I highly recommend this B&B for those wishing a simple place to enjoy the park (unfortunately we were only single night guests).read moreread lessJoachim S.8/08/2026
- Just outside the national park of clear lake is a beautiful bed and breakfast. It has several rooms, a hot tub, a dry sauna, and great views and access. It is quiet and you can even see several of the 1500 bears that make the park their home. Access to a nice golf course, a Nordic spa at Elkhorn resort. We have experienced it in early spring and middle of summer. Both times were great, the hosts are personable and know all the places to go. Will stay again.read moreread lessJames M.8/07/2026Riding Mountain House is the perfect place to stay when exploring Riding Mountain NP. Dawna and Barry are wonderful hosts, forthcoming with any kind of information from restaurants to park activities. The self-serve continental breakfast makes for a good start. Amenities like BBQ, hot tub and dry sauna are wonderful. I will certainly return to stay at RMH.read moreread lessBarbara K.7/06/2026This was an amazing stay. We were looking for a quiet place to stay near the park, and this was the perfect choice.
The place is very organized and clean. We had the chance to meet Barry, one of the hosts, he is very friendly and knowledgeable about the surroundings and what things to do.read moreread lessRodrigo6/21/2026 - Riding Mountain house was a perfect stay close to the park. The rooms are cozy and have space for playing board games, reading, or curling up to watch a show. The kitchenette was convenient for making meals and the breakfast had plenty of options. The sauna and hot tub were perfect for unwinding. We stayed in Februrary, and are booked to come back in June. I look forward to using the sunroom in warmer weather. We will definitely stay again!read moreread lessSandra S.2/25/2026

My Husband and I recently stayed at this B & B and our experience was fantastic! Our room was spacious and comfortable, the screened in porch lovely to have a glass of wine and unwind, and the hot tub and sauna were just what the doctor ordered after coming back from time spent in the park. The owners Barry and Dawna were the perfect hosts, giving us our space and checking in periodically to see how our day went. We would highly recommend this little gem if you are planning a trip to Riding Mountain National Park!
Rob and Tracey Edigerread moreread lessTracey E10/01/2025 - Our stay exceeded expectations. It was our first time visiting the park. We will definitely be back. The rooms are a great size, the sunroom is lovely, the hot tub under the stars is great. Location is great, quiet but easy access to everything. Hosts were great to chat with. Breakfast had a good variety of options. We ate out but the space is also equipped if we wanted to cook for ourselves.read moreread lessKandra F.9/29/2025We spent 3 nights at Barry and Dawna’s beautiful home.
