“Very nice overall.”

My best friend and I got a deal to stay here for one night in May. Our log style cabin was clean and well organized: kitchen area, leather sofa, nice coffeemaker, Apple TV and DVD player with movies available, woodstove, deck, big jet tub and comfortable bedroom with two beds. Very friendly reception, walked us right to our room. Gorgeous... More

“Fantastic property, could use a bit more attention to detail”

Reviewed 30 March 2013

My husband and I stayed at Irwin Inn for one night in March. We chose it for the private outdoor hot-tub and lake view, which was the highlight for us. We stayed in the Upper West Spa suite, which was huge and would have been perfect for a family. On the main floor there was a big master bedroom on... More

“Amazing! Can't wait to return!”

Reviewed 24 March 2013 via mobile

We were greeted by Jennifer and she walked us over to our suite (Lower Middle Lakeside Spa Suite). She gave us a quick tour, showed us the hot tub, showed us how to work the electronics (Blu ray, Apple TV/Netflix, etc) and showed us the wood burning fireplace, unlimited supply of wood and kindling. Their movie selection was pretty decent... More

Jaimck, We had a great time hosting your "girls" weekend, and it was certainly our pleasure to meet all of you. Despite the weather, I'm happy that you enjoyed the hiking trails and the horses are even happier that you spent some time with them (we've had to put them on diets this week after all the treats they got...

“Fantastic”

Reviewed 16 March 2013

We just returned from an overnight stay and can't wait to return. From start to finish the experience was relaxing and exceeded our expectations. Booking the reservation was was effortless as I received fast responses from both email and phone messages. As well, received emails just prior to the stay asking if I had any questions or concerns prior to... More

Schott416, Thank you so much for sharing your experience at the Inn. We had so much fun hosting your little overnight escape and we were so happy you were able to fit in so much in just 24 hours - from Snowmobiling, to massages and candlelight dinner. Can't wait until your next visit - maybe this summer and we can... More

“Unfortunately disappointing”

Reviewed 10 March 2013

We stayed at the Irwin Inn March 8-10, 2013. We were in the Lower East Lakeside Spa Suite. We had other family in the larger cottage - Garaden. We opted for "self-catering" so we did not use the dining facilities. We did, however, upon booking the Garaden, request a bbq for use. We were assured that it would be available.... More

We spent last weekend (March 2/3) at Irwin Inn and absolutely loved it. Stony Lake is truly the gem of the Kawarthas and it was at its breathtaking best on this crisp winter weekend. A few hours outside exploring the lake and the Irwin property made for the best sleeps in ages (although the five course dinner and bottle of... More

“Dinner in a dated dinning room”

Reviewed 26 January 2013

This resort is very dated, some of the cottages look like they are going to fall down. They do have updated town house style buildings though on the lake (stay in those). It has a beautiful setting on Stoney Lake, especially the dinning room ,which is dated and in need of a check up, or a face lift. As for... More

“Poor weather...great weekend”

Reviewed 20 January 2013

Just returned from our stay at The Irwin Inn. We left Sudbury on Friday hoping to arrive at the Inn at a reasonable hour. Mother nature did not cooperate and when we called the inn from Bracebridge, they advised us not to proceed and to stay the night in Bracebridge because the weather was just that bad. We arrived Saturday... More

Dear byejake, Yes, mother nature is the one thing we can't control - especially this winter! Although snowy outside today, our January was a bit more mild than expected. I'm happy to see you enjoyed your stay regardless and truly "Snuggled In to the Inn" for the weekend. Cheers Jennifer More

Excellent resort for business, family etc. Directly on the lake with well appointed cabins. Food was very good, and lots of variety and a very friendly staff. this resort is open all year round with varying activities. Riding, hiking, swimming, boating, fishing and just the scenery.

Paul G Thank you for taking the time to submit a review of your group's stay at the Inn. We had a fantastic time with your group and enjoyed your "out of the board room" day with us.
