Canoe Bay

Canoe Bay surpassed all expectations for a quiet getaway for my wife and I. Meals delivered to the door plus an excellent dining room with great food, wine, and lake views. A woodsy lake with usually no more than a couple people on it at a time, quietly paddling, and often no one. Take a morning swim with the lake to yourself, listen to the loons at night with the windows open. With no highway nearby, it’s marvelously still and relaxing in a way it never is at home. The library is out of a home magazine, the cabins themselves little marvels of discreet design—the whole place has an elegance without being showy or fussy about it. Already planning to come back in other seasons.

We loved our stay at Canoe Bay!!! This was our first time and it did not dissapoint! The people, the accomodations and the food was wonderful! We loved the place we chose to stay, loved the wild life, the canoeing, the gardens, walking on the grounds. We chose to do the meal and it was delicious! A great get away to relax and recharge. I would highly recommend.

i have always wanted to stay here and it certainly did not disappoint. I ad originally booked the classic king XL lakeside but after checking in and starting to unpack we knew that we would not be happy there. I hadn't realized that it is actually a tiny home trailer. Although very nice it did not have the warm and cozy feel that we expected and felt that the $515 per night cost was too high for the accommodations. The manager, Renee, was very quick to get us settled in a Dream Cottage as we had purchased the Spring Package which included an upgrade. The cottage was worth twice the amount of the trailer and definitely was a dream. It was so spacious with a cozy ambience, incredible view and bathroom to die for. One of the reasons that we were most excited about staying here was the incredible food that is offered. We had the great pleasure of talking to the wonderful gardener, John. A visit to his beautiful garden is a must. The food did not disappoint. We ate all of our meals on the property and it was all delicious. We did get very spoiled by having the wonderful staff deliver breakfast and lunch right to our door. We had originally booked 2 nights but ended up extending a day because we didn't want to leave.

Beautiful accommodations and top notch service. We visited canoe bay because it is part of Relais & chateaux which usually just have an above and beyond edge to them. This was no exception and was better than other Relais properties we’ve been to recently. I wouldn’t say the land itself/property is especially stunning, but what is stunning is how luxurious the lodging is and that it’s immersed in the woods. Reasons for this are: -cleanliness: 10/10 -decor/ room ambiance: 10/10 -service: 10/10 breakfast is delivered to your room -food: 8/10 -above and beyond points: extra personal hygiene toiletries in bathrooms beyond standard toiletries, peaceful environment

We had dinner reservations at the restaurant. Unfortunately, my husband was ill and not able to eat dinner at the restaurant. . We were still charged for his meal. There is nothing stated on their website about being charged for meals not eaten. We had to check out early, because of his illness and noticed a charge on our credit card. No email with a receipt was ever sent. The key to our room was stuck in front of the door, the entire time, we stayed there. Someone came to look at it, but it was never fixed. While we felt safe, it would have been nice to be able to lock the door, when gone or sleeping. Overall, I felt the service was average.
