For the Tree Trekking all customers are by appointment. Your are time slotted for instructional…read morelessons on how to use your equipment safely. After that you are instructed to start on the easiest courses and work your way through. What is not disclosed is that you have to sign an additional waiver when your inside (aside from the one on arrival). The odd thing is that it is just a notebook and the student employees just ask you did you do all the other courses before attempt the most advanced course. It's pretty loosey goosey, instead of this system a stamp system should be used or a passport system because if they are using this for liability is a signature request under duress (is what I understand from my legal eagle knowledge). Considering the risk, I would say more needs to be done. The whole course are supervised and the summer hired students are trained to radio each other when a new person is going on the course. The two customer limit on platform are loosely reinforced. I did find that some of the platforms were short on the landing for the mini zipline sections. And on the course the student hires warned us it's slippery because it was wet. Perhaps add some slip grips just because you're flying in at high speed into the landing in some cases (especially when you're pretty large). Good things is that if you wanted the zipline experience you get it through the whole course. You can get away with just paying for the whole course. If you're a parent you may want to go in and just have a look how things are run before putting your kids through the track for the peace of mind. The other thing is that you also want to have a telephoto lens on your slr if you're watching from the ground or hookup your child with a go pro for the fun of watching later. Overall difficulty was intermediate. I think to level up try the course without holding on anything. This was my first time doing this. I would have preferred more physical challenges on the course. There are washrooms behind the sign in cabin. Two toilets in the female. But if you want cleaner go back to the resort. So I rated this four star for the following reason. 1. Price point is steep on a single visit, even with coupons. Season pass may be better; 2. The course liability on-site could be better, I just wonder what happened if there was an accident and if the location did enough to protect customers; 3. The course is full of student employees, surely trained well. But considering young kids on the course a few adult staff would make it feel safer. There were times when I know none if the staff we watching me because I was sloppy on the security straps-without realizing until my date warned me (thanks); 4. Washrooms are not clean on the premise of the trekking. Go to horseshoe resort.

I didn't do enough research myself and brought more stuff than required. The only real stuff u need would be food and drinks (booze) and also if u want cream in your coffee. Everything else u need to provided. My brother was super psyched because fire starters, kindling and tons of wood is available. U can start the fire outside or inside. They have 4 chairs provided outside but I brought my own as well. Everything else u can research. Such as the sauna or horseback riding. Would be 5 stars if there were more options on stuff to do or eat. But overall it's a wonderful experience and would recommend for sure.

They showed us a trail, the sauna, and gave us a little orientation in our dome as to how to operate everything. It was so cute and cozy in there.

They are available 24 hrs and respond quickly via text if you need anything.

Their new space is stunning, both indoors and out and would be the perfect spot to hold a shower or intimate event. We enjoyed their afternoon tea which included a selection of sandwiches, scones, baked goods and tea for $19.95 per person, an excellent price! Their teas, scones and sandwiches are delightful. The reason for the 4 stars is that I think the petit fours/pastry/cookie tier of their tray could use a bit of improvement. Although it's beautiful to look at, they're not as yummy as the other items. They also offering "high tea" on Fridays between 4-6 which includes a choice of soup or salad; followed by the entree of the day (Sheppard's pie, Meat Pie with mashed potatoes, Irish Stew with Dumplings or sausage rolls with mashed potatoes and gravy), dessert, tea and a cold beverage, all for $29.95. Reservarions are required and can be made online. Before you leave, don't forget to pop upstairs and visit the vendors located on the upper floor of the building that sell a little bit of everything, including great gifts from local makers.

I would give zero stars if I could. I had planned to have my wedding here in October. As the…read morepandemic started long before my wedding was planned I called and spoke to the owner, Danny, to change the date. In our contract it states we can do so as long as it is six months before the scheduled date. Danny told us we could not reschedule for 2021 because he was selling his farm, later on Facebook we saw a post advertising that people call to schedule for 2021 weddings. Danny told us If COVID prevented us from being allowed to have our wedding he would refund us some of our $4,000 deposit. As we thought, we were unable to have our wedding and Danny refused to pay back any of our deposit. Be very careful if you are planning to have your wedding or hold an event here.

Gord and I spent three days at Horseshoe Resort ... we drove up on Wednesday and came home Friday…read more It snowed and was really cold the entire time so was very Canadian. It was a fun way to start 2026! We booked a deluxe room, which had a sunken sitting area with an electric fireplace and a snowy view. It was nice to have the extra space. We had our meals at the Crazy Horse Sports Bar & Grill (across the street from the Inn) and Eleven 01 (in the inn building). We celebrated New Years Eve at the Crazy Horse where there was a live band, which was fun. There is lots to do. We're not skiers or snowboarders but there were many there who were so it was fun to watch. Entry to the trails at the Nordic Centre across the street is complimentary for snowshoers and bikers staying at the resort. We brought our snowshoes but since it's been a few years since we'd done it, we snowshoed around the resort's deep deep snow to get back into the groove. There is snow tubing but tickets were sold out for the time slots we wanted. We spent time in the games room playing ping pong and in the hot tub and pool (really busy with lots of families). Parking is an issue ... there doesn't seem to be enough spots and people were parking on the street. We managed to get a spot near another building after driving around a bit. The entrance at the inn could be configured better. In theory, you drive in, park and check in, drive around in a circle and head back out the way you came in. When we checked out this morning, many others were too. Gord couldn't drive around the circle after we loaded up the car because it was packed with cars. Plus it was snowy and icy. He had to back out, which was nerve wracking! It also meant cars pulling in couldn't ... they had to back up so he could get out. A better route would be to have the driveway go right onto the street near the inn's entrance rather than making people drive around in a circle to get out the way they came in.

So basically, even though it operates like a hotel, it gave the responsibility of room assignment to a third party. Moreover, they could not accommodate single room stay. It had to be double accommodation only. no exceptions. I found this rather strange. In summary, I would attend an event here but I will not sleep here again because they don't have control of the accommodation process. Very odd!
