In it's day, the property was probably spectacular. It had a tennis court - now weeds growing up thru the cracked asphalt, fences broken, looks old and too big to maintain properly. Breakfast is 2 types of cereal, a few muffins, coffee, & toast. Neither of the 2 staff members encountered were friendly. Room was cold & basic with laminate flooring and no mat at the door on which to put my shoes .. but, I was looking for the cheapest I could get and so I got it. It did keep the rain off my head. :)

Excellent deal

It was a very nice, colonial style resort. There was complimentary breakfast too, and even a microwave. There was a game room too with pool, and an indoor and outdoor swimming pool. It is also a 15 min walk from the gananoque 1000 island cruise starting point. A very good deal at an excellent price.

I was very disappointed in the condition of this property. Had to switch rooms but staff were very accommodating. Continental breakfast was a huge letdown. Bread bags for people to grab in a non clean way, muffins, a few yogurts available coffee. Grounds were not kept up. I had reservations prebooked for a month from now and have since cancelled.
