Recent Reviews in Dorset

Tally-Ho Inn

8/10 Good

"We have never stayed in a cottage before so our expectations may have been different from others. We have camped in a RV for decades plus we have stayed in hotels and resorts before. I guess we weren’t sure what to expect, for example we thought someone might show up to tidy the place or at least ask if we needed anything. We had to go to the office but that was no big deal. I wanted to make sure my wife did not have to do too much so we had to drive about 15 minutes into Huntsville to find some restaurants which I knew in advance. Unfortunately Huntsville had some major construction work going on but we eventually found our way around. And before you say that we should have been prepared to cook and eat in the cottage i just wanted an experience somewhere between camping and staying at a hotel so yes i knew what we were getting ourselves into. I would definitely go back but earlier in the year so the temperature would be better. The place is located on a lake and only about a 40 minute drive to Algonquin provincial park where we spent a day at. Arrowhead provincial park is only a short drive north of Huntsville so the location of this place was spot on."

Knights Inn Huntsville, ON

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed one night and enjoyed our stay perfectly! Beds were comfortable and clean we were very warm with the heater and we used the microwave to cook our hotdogs that we planned on using a campfire for haha! I would recommend for the price and a secretly beautiful view"

Lakewoods Cottage Resort

8/10 Good

"We were a family group of 10 and this 'cottage' had 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. Large dining area and a large sitting area. Kitchen was very good and pretty well equipped. Lots of kitchen storage and counter space for sure. There was a specific hot tub and a sauna for our unit plus a games room at the facility. All were good....other than the hot tub created suds/foam bubbles (lots of soapy bubbles) for some reason. Manager was not sure what was happening. Manager and his brother (assistant) were both very friendly and accommodating. Would return to Lakewoods for sure."

Motel 6 Huntsville, ON

8/10 Good

"Greetings The tub and shower were very good. Hot water was good The swimming pool could have been warmer. We did use it. The online pictures need updated. It shows muffins with coffee/ staff tells us that picture was from 2020. It would have. Even nice to have coffee in the room."

Arrowhead Inn by Baaman's

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely clean room with very polite owner operators. Would highly recommend it to friends. Close to Arrowhead Provincial Park and 30 mins to Algonquin Park. Great place to stay for astrophotographers, nature or wildlife photographers that prefer a comfortable bed and all the amenities one needs in a nights stay."
