“This seasonal resort in Gananoque strikes me as a classic roadside motor inn, updated with a full complement of resort amenities, from indoor and outdoor pools to dining and recreation. What stands out is the accessibility of ground-level rooms for an easy arrival, plus its proximity to the boat line for exploring the 1000 Islands. It seems a practical base for families drawn to this scenic area.”
