The property was very nice. The bar was wonderful with very friendly staff and the food was delicious. The room was very clean and the take away breakfast was great! The fridge in the common room was well stocked with juice and yogourt for extra choices. We will definitely be back!

The place has 2 bedrooms. It was a little tight for 6 people but using the futon in the hallway worked well. We needed gluten free breakfast and the host provided that. Nice stay. Great balcony views!

A great welcome to the Maratimes at the Fourth Lock B&B! Fabulous atmosphere and beautiful view! The restaurant staff was so helpful and the room (Thomas) was spacious enough for our family of 5. Our three teenagers were raving about how cute and aesthetic this place was! Easy self check in process and the games, juices and coffee from the common area were a great touch! Wish we could have stayed longer.

Location was good for airport and other places we were visiting. The continental breakfast was a quick start to the day. The room was nice however the level of the bed is more for agile people than older joints. We were surprised the restaurant was below the accommodations; and although the food was very good, the popularity of the restaurant creates a parking issue for B&B guests. Also the noise from the restaurant hinders relaxing after a day of travel. Overall we would not recommend it to our age group however would recommend it to the younger crowd.

We only stayed one night. Entry instructions were very clear and we had no issues even with a very late arrival. The property is clean, quiet and generally well kept. The take-away breakfast was a great add-on as we also left early. Would recommend!

The little breakfast was great! Took it for the road which was convenient. The bed was a little low and soft for our comfort level but nothing you can do about that. Coffee was great, the view was amazing!!! Great lake view from our room which was the fletcher. I had coffee outside on the Muskoka chairs.
