Nestled between our Cottage and our B&B, we have created "Joe's Den," a place where you can watch sports on the big screen television, or just sit around and have a chat. This is also the place for those of you who wish to smoke.

Thank you for a wonderful stay. Appreciated the little thoughtful touches that make a place special.....the fresh fruit, lovely flowers, delicious cake, English breakfast tea, soft pillows, fireplace/heater, etc. The surrounding setting with the canal, locks, farms, natural history, old railway paths that allow a person to explore and share Canadian history and life in this part of Ontario. We loved talking shop with Joe and sharing life experiences with you Deb. May our paths cross again. Take care. - Janet and Pete
