Perfect family get away
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay for a lovely get away with the water activities. The view from both of our rooms are stunning, and the private beach is steps away. The boats and sand toys are readily available, and the water is so clean and nice. All three generations enjoyed the beach, the boats, the swims, the games in the common area. All in all it was amazing memories and precious time :) definitely want to come back again!

Given the price we were charged the for accommodation, the quality was shocking. The issues with the room were as follows: (1) Bathroom smelled on mold/ mildew and shower curtain was moldy, (2) Bathroon sink did not drain, (3) Bathroom mirror had electric wires exposed, (4) Large water and mold stain in the entrance hall to the room, (5) Paint peeling in bathroom ceiling, (6) Could not regulate room temperature and needed a space heater brought in, (7) Blind did not work which meant we slept with an open blind all night. We could not get the room to warm up above 20c and when the manager brought us a space heater after we had left, he left our room open to which we returned hours later. We had left valuables and electronics in the room. Really nice spot and set up with nice furnishings and linen, but if you are charging $450 a night for a room in Huntsville, you can't offer sub standard accommodation with the issues i listed above. Would not stay here again or recommend

Our second summer spending a few nights at this guesthouse. After last year we were a bit reluctant to book again given a very non-engaged management on-site. Thankfully new management is terrific. Thank you Amit for your attention to details that make all the difference to guests. You are a much welcome addition! We love the direct access to the shoreline to launch our kayaks, the use of the properties' additional water equipment, the spaciousness of the shoreline so there is lots of privacy for all the guests. Rooms are nicely appointed, beds very comfortable. Nice treats upon arrival. Heads up - this property is a good distance from town so you'll need rides or a car. Restaurants and food stores also a car ride away.

After check in there was no staff to handle little issues (e.g. need for more coffee). If your fob didn’t work in the evening, it was not possible to contact the staff to let you into the building. We watch a lot of sports on TV which are typically on cable channels. They only have streaming with no live TV.

Duck, duck GEESE!
This was a conundrum. The location of this is nice - on the lake with a couple of kayaks and canoes available. It seems like it used to be a bed and breakfast, but it was booked through Hotels.com and it seemed to be a full service inn. But nobody was on site to meet us when we arrived, although a key with our name was left at the front desk. We did meet the manager, who was working his first season at the inn. The owners were not on site. Our room was very nice. Although in the basement, it has windows and was clean and modern. No breakfast other than a few snacks left in the room. The wifi in the basement room was not reliable. The main problem was on the ground - while it looked nice from afar, the beach area was a a favorite of geese, with goose droppings and feathers all over the area including the lawn. We saw the flock come up the first evening, so this was a regular hangout for them. There are certainly means to repel geese such as shiny selectors and a string across the shore (or at least parts of it). My general feeling is this could be a very nice place but with the absent owner and a manager who seemed to be the only employee and one seemingly without much experience to run the place, this would be more suitable as an AirBnB than something listed as an “inn”. The general location relative to Huntsville and Algonquin is excellent, so that’s a plus. Not sure why this review was initially flagged, so I’ll try again.

Very disappointing
I truly hate giving a bad review but this place is very over priced for what you get. We booked the signature rom which the picture shows a view of the lake. $361.00 for 1 night. They showed us our room on the lower level with hardly you could see the lake and the room was nothing special. Motels these days offer nicer newer rooms. They showed us the one bedroom unit which is huge.Which we took for an additional $120.00. Because we diid not want to stay in the room they were giving us. And the pictures they show on Hotels.com are mostly of the one bedroom unit. The unit was not clean. Grease onthe counter & stove. My husbands feet were black from walking around the suite with no shoes. I could feel soap on the shelf in the shower. The property is beautiful, peaceful and quiet. But the top floor of the house has 4 bedroom unit and you can hear the people walking above you, and i was woken bythe noise of someone running back and forth across the floor. Very overpriced for what you get. Cant believe they can get those prices and notoffer Breakfast.

Great secluded place!
This secluded place is a gem, very quiet and peaceful, very much enjoyed sitting looking over the lake as the sun set. The rooms are great as well, plenty of amenities. And you’re not far from the town where there’s plenty of places to eat and drink.
