The front desk person interrupted our check in process with a lengthy phone call. Another staffer sat a desk could have assisted. Our room was in a motel section of the property and referred to as a house and not a lodge as advertised. Upon entering the room the air conditioner was on full speed at the coldest temperature. The day was cool and rainy. The room was arctic! We went to bed early to stay warm with sweat pants, fleece and long sleeve tshirts. The room was warm by 1:30 am. The baseboard heater in the bathroom was not functional. The toilet was freezing, the floor was freezing, unpleasant all around. The breakfast was gross. Cold microwaved frozen egg patties and sausage rounds was the ‘hot’ options. Chemical laden processed food. Otherwise it was bread options and two cold cereals or packaged oatmeal. Water downed orange juice and watery coffee. Cheaping out! There was no kitchen in the eating area.

This hotel is situated well off the road and has a large grassy area at the front. It is quite attractive looking. The beds were very comfortable although the room is tired and could use an update. The continental breakfast was well supplied with lots to choose from. There are a number of nearby places for dinner. We drove into Baddick and thought it was a very pretty town.

The breakfast was not good. The only thing I did not like at the hotel. If there were fruits & a waffle maker, it would have been very good.

It’s an ok place to stay in terms of being in walking distance to town. The property itself is lovely with nice Muskoka chairs to sit in. The rooms are pretty basic but very outdated. The beds were comfy at least. There is zero counter space in the washrooms. The breakfast is pathetic.. First of all not enough seating for the amount of guests, second the choices were some egg patty and meat patty creation., not sure there was real food in either of those .. bread and English muffins .. all served on disposable plates, cutlery .. somewhat shocking in a world where we should be environmentally conscious !! We only ate breakfast one of the three days we were there!! There is cute coffee shop in town that has delicious food options!!
