It was an awesome place to stay. The hosts were very friendly and helpful - and made a great breakfast - like blueberry pancakes with maple syrup. The location itself is very interesting an (I think) 12- or 16- sided cordwood house - very unique. Both the house&rooms as well as the garden were impeccably well-maintained. Would highly recommend.
The host and hostess were very thoughtful, kind and made this a very enjoyable stay, they went out of their way to make us feel at home. The breakfast homemade blueberry pancakes were very delicious. The building is unique and interesting in a wooded area.
This is an idyllic location for a quiet retreat in the heart of beautiful Canadian Shield country. The hosts are very friendly. Best value in a bnb ever! Breakfast was delicious French Toast With perfect texture homemade bread.
The place was hidden in the woods and so nice and comfortable. The host was amazing and made us feel home preparing the breakfast and talk with us about everything. I really enjoyed the place and the host. I would recommend this place to everyone!
Wonderful and quiet! Such a cozy home and very friendly hosts. They have a dog, Ginger, who is very sweet. The first snowfall of the season started as we woke up and it was beautiful.
We had a great time with Al & Annette food was great. They were great in guiding us where to go and how to get there. Great suggestion on places for dinner. We also had a great time playing games with them. We will be back again.
Al, Annette and Ginger were excellent hosts, very friendly and welcoming.
The Loon room was very spacious and super comfortable.
Would highly recommend the Gathering Place to anyone looking for a nice B&B in a quiet setting.
This is a gem B&B hosted in an historic house. You are sharing the house with authentic Canadian hosts though you will have your own room and services. They will welcome you and prepare exquisite breakfasts and make you feel part of their family. Quintessential Canadian hospitality all year.
The place was excellent. The hosts welcomed us very warmly and made us feel right at home. Very clean room and super comfortable kind size bed were really great. Definitely will go back there next time
Al & Annette are very gracious hosts, very accommodating. Facilities were neat & clean. Would stay again.

We stayed one night in the loon room downstairs, and our bathroom was upstairs. Both were very clean and spacious. Bed was very comfortable! The property and house were beautiful, but the most memorable part of our stay was meeting Annette, Al and their dog Ginger. Super kind and hospitable, would love to return for a longer stay in the future!
We very much enjoyed our stay. First time B & B users, we really had a great experience. The owners were very friendly and very accomidating. The Breakfasts were very tasty.
Cute little B&B nestled in the woods, Al and Annette are a sweet couple with a great sense of humour. If you’re looking for somewhere to stay away from the hustle and bustle this is the spot.
Rooms were beautifully decorated and spotless, the bed the most comfortable we have ever slept in. Beautiful and quiet location. The owners are artists and their work in on display. This is the nicest place we have stayed on our trip - too bad we were on our way home and couldn't stay longer.
We were looking at properties in the area and needed a place to stay overnight. Annette and Al were wonderful hosts and gave us the skinny on places to eat and nearby attractions. Not to mention that their property was gorgeous and a real treat to wake up in and go for a meander around the pond with a coffee.
We were welcomed by Al and Annette and their sweet girl Ginger who right away made us feel very comfortable. Our room was spacious, and very clean, the bed was extremely comfy and we enjoyed a very good restful sleep. Breakfast was delicious.
We highly recommend this lovely B&B to anyone travelling into this area.
