Rideau Lakes Portland Bay Conservation Area Hotels

"Nice enough, you get what you pay for. The rooms are very tired, the chair in my room had a stain and what I assume was a very old cigarette burn. Ceiling was... interesting. Shower curtain rod was hanging on by a wish. Downstairs, mix and match tables and chairs for breakfast. During checkin (6pm ish on a Saturday), had to wait maybe 5 minutes for the solitary staff person to get back from whatever she was doing in the basement."

"As photographer and kayaker, this location was ideal for my exploration of Benson Lake. I managed to journey my way by water through the lake and discover it's treasures. Many areas of calm water barely disturbed by the wind provides stunning reflections. An orchestra of a wide variety of birds kept me entertained in the quiet and undisturbed sound of nature. The location also provided quick trips to surrounding trails for hiking and other lakes and rivers for more kayaking. I only had 3 nights of stay in the spring, but I am sure to return in the autumn to indulge more with the lovely fall colours."

"This hotel requires a $ 100 security deposit that they put on your credit card. When you check out, they say it’s refunded but they don’t give you any documentation to show you that it’s done. They say you will see it on your statement but your bank may take a few days to process it. . When I checked out they tried to tell me, I owed for 1 night. But I had paid through Expedia, so it took them awhile to resolve it. The room was very clean and I was pleased to see a top sheet and then a comforter in lieu of just a duvet. In the lobby, There is a Keurig coffee station set up, but no kettle. As a result, the hot water selection for tea, as a distinct aroma and taste of coffee, so I couldn’t drink it. Not sure if it is cleaned daily. Breakfast was passable. Cooked sausage rounds, egg rounds ( both microwaved, I suspect) yogurt with toppings, cereals, make your own waffles, apples/ clementines, bread, English muffins , cookies and a very poor version of a muffin. Again I suspect it was frozen and defrosted. Didn’t have a discernible taste. It was kinda pink so maybe Cherry? My suggestions: 1 ) Get a kettle for tea 2). Get some decent muffins 3) Expedia needs to make you aware that a security deposit is required The good news about this location is it’s surrounded by fast food restaurants."
