8/10 Good
"The rooms were clean but bathroom needed maintenance (bathroom counter was loose, shower /bath needed grout cleaned and re-caulked, bathroom door wouldn’t close). We just needed a cheap place to stay before heading into the park, so the bed cleanliness was the most important thing, and they were good."

Home Away From Home, come and relax in a beautiful old country home with Jacuzzi

10/10 Excellent
"A South River Gem – Absolute Perfection!The Blue Door Inn is a true South River gem, and our stay was absolutely perfect. The attention to detail made the home incredibly welcoming from the moment we arrived. Each bedroom was remarkably spacious, featuring exceptionally comfortable beds and fabulous linens. The thoughtful touches—like having two cozy bathrobes and a dedicated basket of towels ready in every room—did not go unnoticed.The kitchen was fully equipped with everything needed to cook every single meal, and the deck featured a large BBQ alongside plenty of comfortable seating. The hot tub was another fantastic addition; it was private, spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and incredibly relaxing.We want to give a huge thank you to our hosts for providing the perfect home for our family of six to spend an amazing weekend together. With three families travelling from different locations to connect under one roof, this space could not have been more ideal. We highly recommend it!"

10/10 Excellent
"I booked a surprise getaway for my husband and I - and we have officially found our new yearly place to stay at! Booking with John was so smooth. His property is beautiful, quiet but yet with so many things you can do. The views from the docks were breathtaking. We laid in the hammock, enjoying the sun and the fall colours across the lake and read a book. At night we started the woodstove, cuddled up and enjoyed a movie. The kitchen is fully equipped to cook every meal. John was also phenomenal at communicating, and answered any question we had. We look forward coming back next year with our family."

"I have stated this property before. But not this exact apartment. My previous experience was better. The host had a housekeeping, scheduling issue, so the host, and I had agreed that I would clean the apartment, change the bedding, do the dishes from the previous renter, etc., for a discounted rate. They did honour it right away. I will not let this determine me from staying there again, because I know what the apartment is and the host is very responsive"
