The room is very thoughtfully appointed, from a luggage rack for each suitcase, to any array of fresh towels and extensive amenities. They have thought of all of the expected items and many little details that contribute to the feeling that they care truly about their guests. The common space is generous, welcoming and immaculately maintained. The location is in a quiet neighborhood close to downtown Huntsville. And as if that isn’t enough, there’s the breakfast. Each morning we were presented with a different and unique gourmet breakfast consisting of at least two courses. The quality is on caliber with any fine restaurant and was enhanced only by the presentation, fresh ingredients and perfection in preparation. Now we will manufacture a reason to return.

- Chantel (10/5): - 3 words: Classy, Elegant, & Clean
Echo woods was a tranquil place to spend our 1 year wedding Anniversary. The food was remarkable, so well presented every morning at 9am. We felt like we were being treated at our own private chef's kitchen every morning. The food was incredible, and she really ensured that everything was just to her guests liking.
The room (the entire house) was beautiful and extremely clean. A real Luxe feel with high quality details in every inch of the room.
One area for improvement, not that it is a huge thing and hey, maybe its a liability thing I'm not sure, my husband and I really wanted to have a fire some nights. We ended up not having a fire because it seemed as though they may have had to cut the wood and stay up until we were finished to ensure the fire is out. My husband and I like to have fires until 12 or 1 am some times so we felt bad if we would have been keeping them awake. We should have asked for more details regarding the rules or how things were done ahead of time though.
Overall, I would recommend this bed and breakfast to anyone looking to stay in a 5 star luxury B&B. Very close to boat launch, rivers and 30min walk to main strip for the shops. Will definitely be recommending to friends and family.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very unique home and high quality breakfast served each morning by the hosts
- JESSICA (10/5): - Echo Woods is perfectly situated just outside the downtown of Huntsville. It´s easy to grab dinner and access the highway to Algonquin and Arrowhead. Darlene & Bob keep the place absolutely immaculate! There are many options for relaxing once on the property and you´re encouraged to not only retreat to your room (which is comfy and private). As other travellers have noted, the breakfast is spectacular! It is delicious and satisfying and will keep you going all day on your adventures. Darlene & Bob have a beautiful home and they are generous to share it! 5/5 would recommend and plan to visit again!
- Nancy (10/5): A Lovely Retreat - Darlene and Bob are the perfect hosts, attentive and caring but just steps away if you want your privacy. Their beautiful home has several separate sitting areas, spacious bedrooms and a welcoming dining room.
The breakfasts are outstanding- bring your appetite! The hosts often check in while you’re eating to make sure everything is just perfect, your coffee is hot, your plate is full.
Despite having six people at once, there’s not a speck on the floor. We also enjoyed the large, well appointed bathrooms, definitely felt pampered. The neighbourhood offers a beautiful setting for walks, and the drive into Huntsville is not more than 5 minutes.
A lovely retreat on a sunny fall day~
- Verified traveler (10/5): - A wonderful place to stay with superb food and such a fabulous service and greeting from the hosts. I cannot rate Echo Woods enough.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The service and the room was fantastic. What a great B&B. Very accommodating. I would highly recommend this fabulous place. A+++++++
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful home. Gourmet breakfast. Warm, friendly hosts. We booked another trip to this b&b before we left.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It was all around excellent.The breakfast was top notch gourmet, and the room was great. It was very relaxing just sitting on the front porch drinking my tea early in the mornings. I would certainly recommend staying here.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful room excellent service from Darlene and Bob.

- Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful estatics, comfortable bed, lovely bathroom and overall cleanliness is on point. Bob and Darlene were absolutly wonderful. They are running this B&B with love and passion and are such warm and welcoming people. Would love come back!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This property was beautiful, our room was so well taken care of and overall a great experience.
- Hollie (10/5): - Hosts were friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the area. Gave us ideas about where to go snowshoeing besides the very busy Arrowhead park. Breakfast was amazing. Beds were comfy and bathrooms huge. Enjoyed our stay every much and would definitely stay again.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Lovely and charming.
Excellent breakfast.
Rooms have everything you need.
- Tyler (10/5): - It is a beautiful home set back from the city of Huntsville. The owners set it up specifically for a bed and breakfast. It has a music room, a dining room, a library full of cook books, and a very comfortable games room. We played with the beautiful chess set. The games room also has a small kitchenet with a fridge, plenty of glasses and a nice tea set. The whole house is beautifully designed. A plus is that you are given a key to your bedroom door so it can be locked when you leave.
Our breakfast was a gourmet meal! It is also very filling. My advise is to have a small dinner the night before so you can enjoy the delicious breakfast.
If you are looking for a retreat from busy city life this is the place to go!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Amazing food. Beautiful house and property that was very well kept.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful cozy home, friendly hosts and stellar breakfast!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Echo Woods was nicely situated, close to the Huntsville core, with close access to Arrowhead Provincial Park. The house itself is beautifully decorated, and features many cozy nooks to spend comfortable time indoors. The hosts are really welcoming and will go the extra distance to see to guests requests. They typically join you after breakfast for pleasant get-to-know-you chat time. The breakfasts are superb! Cooked with culinary expertise that would rival those of top-rated chefs! They are a real treat! And no need for lunch after one of these. The beds are excellent and the rooms are extremely comfortable. One item I would suggest is that, as an early riser I would have liked the chance to make coffee for myself in the common kitchen area.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This place is perfect :) Amazing hosts and best breakfast ever!!!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Everything was perfect. The room, food, and hosts were amazing
- AllisonCarpente (10/5): - The property is gorgeous! The rooms are amazing and the bathrooms are something out of a magazine. Every room just feels like home, you feel comfortable and welcome from the moment you walk in!
- Carrie (10/5): - This was our first B&B experience and won’t be our last. However Bob & Darlene have set the bar extremely high!! A great room, amazing breakfast and a wonderful couple.
- Alan (10/5): A great home from home, shared with great people - A beautiful home shared with the guests made to feel like friends. The breakfasts were a highlight of the day. One large table with all the guests sat together resulted in great breakfast conversations. Then, after breakfasts for which words can not do justice to the quality and variety(which resulted in no need for lunch), Darlene and Bob would join us at the table to share a coffee and a chat.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I loved everything. The owners, Darlene and Bob are phenomenal people who treat you like royalty. The house feels welcoming and very inviting. I truly felt relaxed and spoiled. Also had the pleasure of making friends with other guests. Rhe food that is pepared by Darlene and served by her hubby, Bob, is undescrible. So delicious and made with heart and soul sprinkled with lots of love. Coming back as repeat guests for sure.❤❤

Can appreciate the hard work that has gone into this gem of a B & B.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Absolutely blown away - The main floor of the house is stunning, the room was immaculate, the hosts were so friendly and helpful, and the food, which was prepared by a professionally trained chef, was without exaggeration the best breakfast we've ever had...twice.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Outstanding breakfast - Outstanding breakfast and very friendly host. Rooms classic and clean.
- Christine A (10/5): - From the warm welcome to the phenomenal full breakfasts each day and the gorgeous house and guest rooms with all the amenities, I will be sure to return again. Set in a peaceful wooded area, I am happy to recommend Echo Woods to family and friends. Amazing value.
