We loved the fact that we could sit outside for the afternoon and it felt like our backyard. Travelling with a pet made it relaxing. Having the Muskoka Chairs was such a nice touch. Loved the breakfast area having local artwork to view while eating, it added such a personal touch for the area. Staff were very friendly. Rooms were very comfortable and clean.

Showers without mats or grip bars……horrible fall
We could not use pool because of too many kids in it playing. In the breakfast area, there were two large dogs and the owners let them reach up to the top of the counter. Very hard to get to sleep due to the very noisy people on the next floor over us.The bathtub had no mat to put in it. I slipped when having a shower and fell out of the tub backwards landed on my back and struggled to get up

Easy access from highway. Hard pillows.
Everything was perfect for a short stop while driving back from vacation. Congratulations for compost, recycling bins. The only issue was the 6 pillows that are very hard. Why not putting some smooth? Thank you
