This is as the most perfect way to end the summer. I honestly don’t want to leave. We took advantage of the pool, kayaks, saunas, read in the muskoka chairs. The staff are all amazing. The food was wonderful. I can’t wait to return.

We had a staff retreat at Windermere house and we were pleasantly surprised! The food at the restaurants was top notch! I would come back for the food alone. There is a small beach and you can access paddle boards and kayaks for free. The front desk staff wasn't overly helpful. I expected the room to be old and dated but it was great! Spacious, clean and quiet. The pool is a good size and there are a lot of activities to do at the resort. We will be back!

Had a wonderful 3 days at the Windermere. The staff are amazing. The room really clean. Also enjoyed all the activities that place has to offer. The only thing is the water pressure in the shower is not very consistent. But that’s not surprising or inconvenient. Loved the stay overall and cannot wait to come back.

Without a doubt an amazing place to stay and fantastic experience. My wife and I enjoyed our stay at the Windermere house very much. Beautiful rooms, picturesque views, The highlight of our visit was the dining experience at the Rosseau by far. Lucky enough to have the best seat in the house on the veranda overlooking the lake. The food was exceptional, I highly recommend the lobster bisque. Compliments to the Chef and the staff for their professionalism and hospitality. Our server, Lucie was none other than spectacular! It’s rare to find such a beautiful setting, accompanied by first class, food and service! Thank you Windermere house, we will be back Cheers Jimmy and Meaghan
