It isn't really an Inn. It's more of a Bed and Breakfast, if they included breakfast- which means we had a bedroom with connecting bathroom in a very nice home on Bigfort Bay. We enjoyed our stay. Cute area with good restaurants and art nearby.

We loved the room and amenities! Soft thick towels, wonderful thick soft carpet, robes to wear to the hot tub, and a comfortable bed. The hosts went out of their way to be friendly and helpful. And the building is beautiful. The only suggestion is a better, more visible sign on the main street pointing down the alley to the parking.

Beautiful house with deck overlooking the bay. The town has a lot of cute shops and the nearby restaurant, Wine and Whisky, was excellent. Be sure that you're in touch with the owner in advance of your stay to learn the access codes for the keypads and also make note of the name of the room you've selected.

It’s a lovely lake home converted to a quaint and quiet inn with only 4-6 rooms all decorated nicely. The home is lovely. The outside could use a good power wash as there were a lot of spider webs. They have two nice decks for enjoying a cocktail while watching the sunset.

Perfect in every way

Amazing place with so many more perks than expected. It’s in the heart of town, in beautiful condition, felt so private even with other guests and had so many unexpected amenities. We would definitely stay here again! The breakfast spread was so thoughtful and the water toys were perfect. SUPs, kayaks, peddle boats, lily pad, etc. Two huge balconies and a yard at the waters edge with dock. Everything we could have wanted!

Kelly was a great host. Very cute lodge style inn on the bay on the main strip of town. Beautifully decorated with lots of antiques and cool stuff throughout the house. Continental breakfast is left out for you on main floor in the kitchen. Bagels, muffins , pastries etc. there is a fridge on each floor that’s kinda family style. Take what you want, leave what you have extra of. One of the strange things was our private bath was across the hall of the game room/ lounge are so we had to be careful when streaking but it worked out fine. There are only about a half dozen rooms and people go out exploring most of the day so you pretty much have the whole place to yourself. Look forward to staying there again soon. Thanks again.
