Top Port Carling Hotel Reviews

Muskoka Bay Resort

Muskoka Bay Resort

10/10 Excellent
"Overall, very nice place. I had a suite room in the new building and it was spacious and clean. The Muskoka Bay Resort is also well maintained and the shuttle service to get around is easy. The Cliffside restaurant is also fantastic and would highly recommend. Staff are super friendly and nice. The room had everything you would need in a kitchen. The soap/shampoo was of high quality. The laundry also had the detergent as well. The effort is there to make this a seamless experience. My qualm was that the dryer had a lot of sand in it maybe from prior person. I had to clean that myself before using. Overall, highly recommend and expect to be back."
