We are just finishing our stay at "The Eldo". Under newer ownership of a few years, our proprietor…read moreSam has certainly continued the attention to detail that we recalled from previous stays over the years with campers at Camp Bil-o-Wood. The rooms are clean as ever, AC on for our arrival. New electronics, fridge & flat screen with full cable & WiFi. Breakfast was great and made to order. Yes, Auberge Eldo Inn is still the place to stay.

Used to be a great spot--now it's overpriced and falling apart. Beds were broken and rock-hard…read more Heat barely worked, and the thin bedding made for freezing nights. Plumbing was awful--waited 15-20 minutes for lukewarm water (when the shower worked at all). Outlets were either dead or couldn't hold a plug. Non-smoking room? Not when people are lighting up weed and cigarettes right outside the door all night. Noise was nonstop--either a party or doors slamming. Staff were kind, but they're working with junk tools in a rundown shell of a place. Found a waterfront 2BR cabin for less than half what I paid here. This isn't the motel it used to be. Don't waste your money.

We stayed here in a cabin for 2 nights in August on our way across the country…read more I hate to write a bad review because the owner seemed very nice and hospitable however on our 30 day trip all over the country this was by far the worst stay we had. Now I realize this is cabin and not a luxury suite but there should still be some basic standards met. I have never in my life slept on such a terrible mattress. I was unable to sleep more than an hour at a time both nights and considered sleeping in my car as that would have been more comfortable. My husband and I could not sleep in the bed at the same time due to how saggy it was. On top of that was the very loud noise from the highway. The cabin is basically right on the roadside just with a fence between it and the road. Also the cabin seemed dirty and the dishes didn't look very clean. Aside from that the lake was pretty but couldn't make up for the lack of a decent bed. We have stayed in hotels, cabins, motels, and campgrounds for 30 days of this trip and sad to say this was the worst. Wish I could say differently.

I love this place. Manitoulin Island is magical, and part of that magic is having small towns like…read moreGore Bay, and beautiful places to stay in like the Inn at Gore Bay. The straightforward name of this inn says it all: it strips away all the distractions to focus you on how peaceful and beautiful this town is. Rooms: There are 10 rooms in this 2 storey inn (5 on each floor). The rooms are clean and immaculately designed (great local art). The beds are really comfortable, with plump comforters and fluffy pillows. The bathroom is modern, with good water pressure. The room is also well furnished, with a tv, mini fridge, coffee maker, microwave, and toaster oven. Wifi is strong enough, which is an essential since phone signal on the island isn't always the best. Oh, and my wife lived in the bathrobe they provided the whole time we were there since she said it was spa-like haha! Finally, whichever room you book has a view of the water, which allows you to watch the sunset from the comforts of your bed. Second floor rooms give you a further view of the harbour and town from the balcony, while first floor rooms allow you to walk out to the edge of the water. Either way, the rooms at the Inn at Gore Bay are a definite winner! "Amenities": There's a restaurant right by the inn called 1890. It's helmed by chef Alberto, who studied at the George Brown culinary school, and it shows as his dishes are really tasty (albeit a bit pricey). Other than the restaurant, there's a good hiking trail a couple of minutes away, which leads you to the main lookout point in the whole Gore Bay (East Bluff Lookout). There aren't other amenities like gyms and pools and all that, but you really don't need those because of all the natural surroundings and activities you can do. I came here during fall, so not sure if they offer summer/winter activities. Location: As mentioned, located right at the edge of the harbour/lake, so that in itself is fantastic. It's also steps away from a beautiful boardwalk that leads you to a park (fully equipped with a children's playground, basketball and tennis courts). Finally, it's also a 5 minute walk away from the main street of Gore Bay which has cute little shops, restaurants, a grocery, bank, library, etc. Service: Tammy and her team are top notch. During the time of covid, they provided seamless service to ensure our safety (self check-in/out, basic cleaning like changing of towels/sheets as requested and taking out the trash to minimize contact, delivering the complimentary breakfast the night before, etc). Tammy was also very quick to respond via text to any questions/concerns that we had. And the one time we did actually see her in person, she was friendly, had such a great energy, and clearly loved the island. Overall: Highly recommend staying here if you visit Manitoulin. It will definitely make you fall in love with the island and the friendly people in it.

Gore Bay is absolutely charming in the fall. Warm and quick service by Tammy and team from check-in, dinner reservation and coordinating contact less breakfast and room supplies. I appreciated all there efforts to make us as comfortable and safe during covid pandemic. Room was well stocked with supplies and amenities. Very thoughtfully renovated and has touches of local art. Had my best night sleep in ages as bedding was so comfortable. Loved the linens and bathrobe from local store Linen and Lavander. Had 2 dinner reservations at 1890 Restaurant. Enjoyed the menu choices presented by Alberto. Alberto and Tammy certainly know how to manage a boutique hotel and restaurant! (will post my restaurant review separately) Manitoulin Island was magical and a lot of best impressions were of Inn at Gore Bay. Planning to return next summer! Highly recommended

This is truly a place you WOULD never find in the rest of the country…read more The entire 40 room hotel is practically a big log cabin, woods theme. It's surrounded by a beautiful forest. They have your standard rooms and other rooms called "Loft" rooms for family's, which are two story rooms. The upstairs has another bed. Downstairs has two double beds. Some even have a kitchenette. The amenities are so great, that if you never left the hotel grounds you would have had an amazing time!!! They have a bowling alley, restaurant (not half bad), a golf course, volleyball, tennis court and a sauna. The best place to stay on this little island. A definite must!!! I love Drummond!
