The room was nice and clean. The strange thing was there was no staff to meet us when we arrived. Instead, there was a sign to call a phone number and the owners in the next house came over to show us to our rooms then left us. We were the only people in the building until we called again for breakfast the next morning when he came over again to make it. There is no pub as the pictures would suggest. This is a 6 room b&b with owners next door situation not a hotel/motel.

What a cozy respite for a weary traveler! Angus welcomed me and showed me my room and the amenities. The great room with the wood stove and coffee/tear bar was a fantastic place to relax. The room was clean with everything I needed. The location is off the highway and very quiet but still close to the port.

It was very quaint. Beautiful area. Bed was quite hard. Breakfast was Continental and adequate. No air conditioning - which I believe was stated in the website for the Inn but not on Expedia. It was very hot. There has been an heat wave over the last few days! Owner did his best with fans. The Inn was clean

The property is a 1842 inn. The welcoming lobby with a fireplace and bar (no service) set up is a great place to sit so you are not locked in the room, especially in the cold weather. We had the inn to ourselves as it was off season. (Two colleagues attending a conference in a closeby town)

I am sure it is lovely in the summer with several places to sit and enjoy the outside as well as a short walk to the beautiful shore of Lake Huron!

The rooms are original to the property, therefore, quaint and for someone who loves history, enjoyable. My travelling partner prefers updated and sleek environments, so this would not be for someone with those tastes. However, it was spotlessly clean with fresh and updated linens. The beds were a little hard for our taste, but there is no way to satisfy everyone.

We had the two bedroom suite which was private and nicely set up with a gas fireplace and tv as well as a private bathroom. I did not see the rooms on the other side of the property so I cannot comment on them.

Angus was welcoming and accommodating with every request. He had a continental breakfast ready every morning and we had access to the kitchen facilities to store our food.

Thank you, Angus for your hospitality and I wish you every success in the future!

While the accommodations were very basic (i.e. no AC in the room, only fans), the breakfast was great. Our host, Angus, was a nice guy and we enjoyed talking to him and the one other set of guests staying there that night. The place was a little further out of Goderich than we thought it was.

Beautiful location. Angus and the staff were wonderful! The inn was very charming with its old world style antiques and design. There are many activities to participate in like hiking, and the bar across the street was reasonably priced with delicious eats and a very accommodating staff.

The beach was beautiful, but quite rocky in the water. When you come to visit, bring your deck shoes!!

I highly recommend this location for a relaxing and quiet getaway.

Truly a hidden gem..

An absolute gem if you are looking for peace and quiet in a rustic and serene spot away from the cares of the world!

Everything in the hotel is well cared for, nurtured and highly maintained. It is very comfortable and one will feel definitely at home once you walk into it. It definitely beats a hotel any day!

Great place to stay if you are looking for accommodation around Goderich, Bayfield or Kincardine.

And that is not all- the HOT BREAKFAST is amazingly wholesome! It is a wonderful experience and pleasure to be there. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Old but OK

The outside appearance could use some fix up but the main lobby is quite quaint and unique. We don't need fancy/modern so it was 3.5 /4 star for us. The staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great and filling. The room was smaller than expected but clean and fit our needs just fine. The general store across the road has snacks/makes pizzas. Beautiful 10min walk to a quiet beach was excellent for us.
With a bit if work the building/rooms could look a lot nicer/appealing.

Comfortable b&b right on the river

Fantastic bed and breakfast. Aged wood interior is very welcoming; lots of couches around the fireplace in the main room to read a book or unwind; rooms are very comfortable with their own fireplaces; beds are comfortable; we checked in after hours but the owners contacted us and gave detailed instructions where the room keys would be; we left quite early so we didn't have a chance to enjoy the breakfast but we will certainly be back!
