Was given a complimentary upgrade upon arrival to a suite which was excellent except it had steep stairs and I was travelling with an elderly person. Loved the upgrade but should have been told at the time about the stairs. Was ok, we made it work. Beach area is lovely with a very large clear view of the lake, very quiet and very much enjoyed sunrise and sunset sitting on Muskoka chairs on the dock. Could do a better job of removing spider webs at beach house entrance, and the weeds and bird droppings around the beach and docks, there was no remote for the bedroom tv or the gas fireplace, neither of which we used but were perplexed as to where they could be. Beautiful, quiet setting, easy good highway driving to both Port Carling and Bracebridge. Golf course across the street we did not use but it is just beautiful, pristine! Very much enjoyed this property and would return.

Good location in Muskoka, but very hilly to walk from the beach area to the infinity pool and again to the dock areas. Pools are very small. Water activities don’t start until things are unlocked after 8am. Sad because the water is so calm earlier in the morning. Food selection is okay, but did make me violently ill after dinner. Nothing is open until noon for food and if you want a muffin and coffee for breakfast you better be there when they put them out at 8am. They do not have enough for everyone. Best to bring your own chairs too if you are in the standard rooms. You won’t have room for it inside but there is a small deck facing the parking lot, but nice enough to sit and have breakfast or drinks.

Loved this resort we spent a few nights in the beach house it was right on the water overlooking the pool and lake. The beach was clean and having a pool beside it made it a bonus.My family absolutely loved it and we will be back next year.

Property grounds and our room were nice and clean. Our main criticism was that we found the menu quite limited and somewhat overpriced considering it was “average” (3 stars) tasting food. We were expecting 4 stars for the food. Spa service was 4 stars.

Beautiful property with some of the best views in Muskoka. The trees need to be pruned back to give more rooms water views. Nice 1bedroom unit, great shallow beach for kids and deep water off the swim dock. Disappointed that the restaurant didn’t serve any breakfast, bit of a pain to go into town. Otherwise great stay!

The location is great but the standard room was very small and with no shears on the windows you have to keep the curtains closed or have everyone walking by looking into your room. Also wish there were chairs on the porch to add a seating area.

liked the view and the property in general, but some things are starting to look a bit tired. Landscaping is in need of more care and places need painting, caulking and some general repairs.
