stayed there last Friday.
The room is new and modern, and a very nice size balcony facing the lake (I am Silver Elite). The Kitchen is well equipped and the room has a very good size closet. The room has a free bag of microwave popcorn.
The pool is okay sized. Didn't use it, but probably it is a nice feature when winter comes.
Breakfast is well stocked. The hotel was full last Saturday and the hotel opened the library and other common areas to accommodate all the breakfast guests.
Requested late check-out but was denied.. because hotel was full for Saturday.
Staffs are friendly.. they are probably retired persons from Muskoka areas.
Would definitely recommend stay here if you are looking for a nice suite with full kitchen in the Muskoka area. It lacks on-site water sports rental when compared to other resorts in the area.

I stay here last week and I liked the hotel. It's got nice architecture that fits the area but once inside the doors it's a regular Residence Inn with all the pros and cons those have. If I could have a single wish, I'd like them to redo the pool area and offer a heated indoor/outdoor pool to use during the winter season. If it had this, it would probably be my favorite Residence Inn in the whole system. The staff is very good although a bit more senior than in other hotels.
