Ontario countryside and lakefront views. Peaceful and rejuvenating. The staff is immaculate, imaginative, and thoughtful. Satellite/cable for those who can’t resists a movie or news update. Fireplaces, hot tubs, balconies, 5-star chef cuisine and posh outdoor dining, all in a rustic setting.

watch out for hidden charges

The chain safety lock had no connector to secure the door, hair blower failed and would not reset...oh and they charged us for one nite a $20.00 gratuities fee..we tipped staff with cash...I disputed that with no result..would not recommend to anyone as it seems other than the food that was very good the lodge is slowly fading...
