    Great venue but hot as hell in the Summer. I have a feeling the artist I went to see would have…read morebeen up on stage longer had it not felt like a sauna the whole time. But the place is literally a big old barn so what can you expect. There are outside patios to escape the heat /have a smoke if you need to. Love how intimate it is and how you can get a good view of the stage from wherever you are. If you get right up close to the stage you can almost touch the lead singer! Quite a laid back vibe. A lot of attendees at the concert I went to looked like they didn't "belong" but were just there to have fun. You can tell a lot of locals just come here for a good night out, regardless of who's playing. The bathrooms were pretty crammed but they managed to squeeze 4 stalls in there so I didn't have to wait long in line each time which can be a nightmare at other venues. Beer was a little pricey (and warm -- $8 tall cans) but that's to be expected at any concert venue I guess... All in all, good times and I'd definitely return if another band/artist I liked came here! (Even if it is a 2 and a half hour drive away from TO)

    This place is known for hosting Canadian bands on weekends in the summer. It's a bit of a legend…read moreamong locals and cottagers. It's defintely a casual place, not a super-classy establishment. It's an oldschool, bare-bones place with sticky floors, but that doesn't mean you won't have a great time. This is an old building right on the lake with a pretty nice patio out back. As for the inside, there's really nothing special about it. The stage is probably about 6 feet high so there are no metal barricades, and you can see the band from pretty much anywhere. There is open general admission on the main floor and limited general admission seating upstairs. The seating is very uncomfortable, but if you want to sit upstairs, head up there as soon as you get in because they only allow a certain number of people up there (you can always head downstairs later on if you feel like it). There are bars on both levels. There's not a lot of parking here, but there is a free parking lot a couple hundred metres away (drive under the train bridge, there will be a dirt parking lot on the right side of the road). It's a 3 min walk back to the Kee. The washrooms are pretty cramped and gross, and from what I remember, none of the stall doors locked in the womens washrooms.... so you have to hold the door closed with your foot. I had an issue a few years ago with a male patron pestering me and the bouncers refused to do anything about him, but I've been to the Kee roughly 6-7 times and that is the only negative experience I've had with the staff. Over all, it's a pretty great (and cheap) little place to see relatively intimate performances by some pretty great rock bands :)

    Venue 5/5 Lakefront…read morerestaurant with patio along boardwalk. Right on the main strip of Friday harbour. Patio has lounge like seating with umbrellas as well. They are also dog friendly (see below), as the other restaurant in resort are service animals only. Service 4/5 Came on a Saturday for supercars and jazz. More traffic than usual at the resort. That being said the team were pretty quick in getting our food to the table after ordering. The wait times for inside were longer than outside due to the heat. We sat outside but the breeze definitely helped out along with the umbrellas. Food 4/5 Portions were quite generous. We got a chicken wrap (chose honey garlic wing sauce) as well as nachos and a chicken Brie sandwich. The venue is also pet friendly , they had dog bowls a for food and water. They also had a dog beer (it is cold bone broth) for the dogs on the patio.

    We stumbled upon this restaurant solely based on how good the food smelled from outside. We were…read morewalking on the sidewalk and smelled the grill. Walking in, we were greeted with a smile. The place had a nice open layout with warm lighting. Crispy & Spicy Squid (4/5) was cooked perfectly. It was firm and crispy with red and green chillis. The sauces were on the sweeter side. We usually prefer the sauces to be more on the tangy and/or a creamy bold garlic flavour. Wagyu Burger (3/5) was decent. It came with two patties, smoked cheddar, caramelized onions, black truffle garlic aioli, tomatoes and pickles. The flavour profile met our expectation but we found that the patties themselves were a bit dry. We upgraded the side of fries for truffle fries (5/5) and those were delicious. Spicy Bison Sausage Rigatoni (5/5) was cooked perfectly. The sausage was complemented well with the acidity and delicate sweetness of the pasta sauce. The mushrooms were a great addition and the parmesan really tied in all the flavours together. We had the option to have it not spicy, mild or hot. We asked for hot because we enjoy spicy food but it was not as spicy as we had hoped it to be. NOTE: The bill comes with an additional 3% Resort Fee

    This is my favorite place to see a live show. It is intimate with less than 100 seats. Those seats…read moreare raised above stage level so every seat is a good one. In the winter, they provide you with slippers!!! It's like watching a show in your living room, except they are so much more hospitable! It's a cash bar with snacks and drinks, it is licensed as well. The finishing touches really make this place special. They even have a fire pit to roast marshmallows during intermission! Most artists stick around to meet the audience as well! Every show I've ever seen here is my favorite. It's that brilliant!

For music lovers who appreciate great blues music, Peter's Players is the place to be. Last night we watched a concert given by Chris Duarte, a Texas-blues guitarist who is quite extraordinary. The venue accommodates an audience of 88, so there is a great sense of intimacy here. The price of the tickets were very affordable, and offered great value. This is what a music venue really should be like, and to find something like this in Gravenhurst is remarkable. This is a venue we will be sharing with our friends and encouraging everyone to go to. The musicians that play here are best in class. I glanced over the wall of picture of past performers, and I remain surprised at Peter's ability to bring in musicians of such high calibre. I am not affiliated with Peter's Players, and my recommendation is to go to his website and subscribe to his newsletter today!
