Port Cunnington Lodge & Resort

I’ve had the pleasure of visiting two years in a row and am quite impressed with the upgrades this year. The lodge has been here so incredibly long but has many comfortable modern amenities while keeping a natural and rustic feel that “going to the cottage” has. Instantly noticeable were the HBC linens, blankets and towels which are not just comfy, but iconically Canadian, which the whole family loved. It was so handy having plenty of canoes, kayaks, and Stand-up-paddlebords so the whole family could get out on the water together. A water trampoline and slides were new this year and brought out the little kid in me which was really fun! This year they added a couple of pedal boats which were nice. They now have many yard games on top of their volleyball and tennis courts, shuffle board and putting green. The wood fire pits were great option, but we went with one of the gas options with Muskoka chairs around it - no smoke to contend with. We mostly used the kitchen in our cottage for the first trip last year, but this year ended up in the dining room almost every night for dinner and mornings for breakfast. Some of us in the family are vegetarian and they always had nice veg and meat options. The staff is all incredibly kind and accommodating and had great suggestions for hikes and excursions we could do within and outside of the property. Our group was 3 couples with one infant and we had such a nice time that we’ve slotted a vacation next summer already.
