The location and the room was perfect for our plan around Algonquin. The room was perfectly set up and ready for our arrival - had all necessary amenities and kitchen utensils included. Dan was exceptional in his hospitality with us - he helped us plan local excursions as well as provided additional water bottles. Loved the customer service and overall experience of staying at Dan’s inn! Would highly recommend!

We stayed at the end of September for 6 nights. The room was very cosy, comfortable and very clean. It was exactly what we were looking for, immersed in nature. The river behind the accomodation is great. Few minutes walk and there is a beautiful lake. It is easy to walk around to the few cafes and restaurants. 10mins drive from Algonquin west gate. Dan is a lovely host, full of great tips for your travel. We would highly recommend it

Such a lovely spot with cozy and clean rooms. Large property inviting guests to participate in lawn games and camp fires. Dwight Beach is a 30s drive away, perfect for the late night dip.

I booked a room at the end for a night before my Algonquin provincial Park trip. It was the perfect stop. Easy to drive back to Huntsville for dinner or any last-minute needs. Dan was super friendly and helpful. The room was basic, but comfortable. The bed was super comfortable. The vibe was awesome!

Simple clean room. Nothing fancy but all we needed for one night. Dan was very accommodating and he was willing to start a fire for us if we wanted. Lots of great family activities on site (volleyball net, football, bbq area etc.) Great trail behind the property to a scenic river spot.

A quite peacful stay in the woods
The experience was very good. Stayed in their luxury tent. It was raining through the night but the tents are built to last.
The property is clean, well maintained. The staff is very coordial and helful. Close to Algonquin west gate, a 15k drive and you're there.
