My wife and I were doing a meandering drive from Ottawa to Montreal. We made a last-minute decision to stay here, grabbing the last room available. We knew it was a remote location, so our expectations were not high.
Owner Dominic, however, has created a jewel along the Ontario side of the Ottawa River that I highly recommend for lodging and, more importantly, the food!
The property used to be solely a restaurant, but post-pandemic, Dominic and his brother decided to turn the third generation restaurant into a resto and lodging. When we checked in we were stunned by the size and newness of Room #3! We later learned Dominic acquired much of the interior from a Hilton Hotel, so it definitely doesn't feel like your everyday inn on a remote byway! And the lodging side of the business opened just in June, so we benefitted from that "new car smell."
We opted for dinner, too, after host Martine assured us everything was homemade and delicious. "You won't get a better meal in these parts." Martine, Anabel and Mattieu proceed to treat us to impeccable service and one of the best roasted chicked dinners I have every eaten. My wife had the filet mignon dinner. I was so impressed with quality and taste of our meal that I told Dominic, it would be worth the drive from either Ottawa or Montreal to experience it. Just the meal, let alone the stay.
As we were passing through, we stayed one night and we had an equally robust farm breakfast. Highly recommend a stay and a meal or two!
