• Anonymous (10/5): Warm and welcoming - Loved everything about it!!
• Steve (10/5): We would like to come back! - Eggs made to order; a most excellent fruit salad!
• Jane (9/5): Nice b & b in great little village in lovely Muskoka. - Great location. Lovely house. Everything clean and well maintained. free parking. Room a little smaller than expected and to call it a “suite” is misleading as a suite usually has a distinctly separate area. Also I think saying there is a fireplace conjures up an image of a room different from what it is. We didn’t need a heater but that was all it was, an electronic heater, taking up space. The mattress was very good and the pillows and bedding. At last a duvet which was fully enclosed in a case (we are not keen on what we found in Canada where the duvet becomes quickly uncovered and can touch someone’s body). Good shower. Jen was really friendly, helpful and conscientious. Breakfast was perfect for us and the fruit salad absolutely the best. One piece of advice, Jen needs to put in easily accessible charging points in the room so that guests can easily charge phones etc. overall we were very happy with our stay.
• Lynn (5/5): Disappointing - Location I thought it looked quaint but really just very dull and tired . Was not an inviting space. Owner was very pleasant and breakfast ok .
• Ian (10/5): I would recommend The Inn on Bay very highly. - The breakfasts were simply excellent.
• William (9/5): Superb - Lovely clean home. Room was very comfortable & spacious. Jen was very friendly and offered great suggestions for restaurants & hiking. Short walking distance to the wharf.

• Eleanore (8/5): Very good - Did not have breakfast.
• Art (6/5): Pleasant - we knew that the bathroom was private but external but even so it is not great to have that situation - with middle of the night needs, etc.
• Susan (9/5): Excellant - Breakfast was great, more than enough and tasty. Bathrooms are small, but the room was large with extra seating area. Great bed. Nicely decorated. Perfect location🩵
• Barbara (8/5): Very good - Jen the owner was great, friendly, hospitable and accmmodating .. breakfast was delicious.. we will definitely return.
