Perfect location to explore Algonquin Park and the Muskoka region. Clean and comfortable room, just what we needed after a day of hiking. Very friendly staff with a great recommendation for a late night dinner in Huntsville.

Very nice property with many lakeside amenities. Canoes, kayaks & paddle board you can take out. We took advantage of the fire ring in the evenings. Comfy bed. Very clean room with fridge and coffee maker. Shower water temp did vary and is my only complaint. Other than that had a nice relaxing stay!

Dear Bruce, Thank you immensely for hosting us. Our stay at your place was an absolute delight, and we cherished every moment. The nearby towns of Dwight and Bracebridge were captivating, each offering its own unique charm and beauty. Your guidance on our tour was invaluable and greatly enhanced our experience. Our final stop at Port Carling was particularly memorable. The route itself was breathtaking, with nature's splendor truly taking center stage. The two days we spent in Huntsville were equally wonderful, surrounded by such serene and picturesque landscapes. We are deeply appreciative of your hospitality and the effort you put into making our visit so special. The natural beauty of the area has left a lasting impression on us, and we already find ourselves wishing we could stay there indefinitely. Once again, thank you for being such a gracious host. We look forward to visiting again soon. Warm regards, Sunghyun & Tarj
