Unorganized Kenora District Aaron Lake Hotels

"When I arrived, I was disgusted by the appearance of the exterior of the property… and actually “afraid” to check in. Paint was peeling off of the exterior and the property was completely unkept!! I did not even check in, but was hoping the owner would refund me ~ for their inaccurate listing! It is actually a rooming house or multi unit rental property of some sort with multiple hydrometers outside. The owners chose not to refund my stay. Shame on them! Truly!! Thankfully EXPEDIA did refund me half (grateful to Expedia for going to bat for me!) … after researching and agreeing that this listing was misleading. The exterior photo they have on their listing was intentionally taken from 100 metres away (to avoid showing the disrepair of the exterior.) If they used MY photos~travellers would not have to experience this disappointment. The owners mentioned that they do not live there… I can see why!!!! It was the worst experience I’ve ever had … and I travel A LOT! Do yourself a favour and book a hotel two minutes away if you need to be in Dryden. This was truly awful.!! I’ve been doing a road trip across Canada for over two months at the moment, and I’m currently staying in Nipigon in a motel on the side of the highway… And it’s wonderful.!! * Consider yourself warned * This listing was VERY misleading. No idea who stayed there and posted positive reviews… but this is MY review"

"Free breaky "

"very clean warm heat nice breakfast"

"spacious room. staff were welcoming. lots of parking."

"Good, clean spot"

"Didnt eat there. Rooms ok but cool. Pilliws are paper thin."

"Nice little spot. Ability to have family come over by boat was a bonus. Would have been wonderful for me if the beach/lake was a little deeper. Would be great for kids. Didn’t find I was missing anything except a fire pit. The indoor gas fireplace sure helped on the cold rainy days. Quick responses from owner made questions very easy. Check in process was a breeze. There’s potential for a return visit if I’m welcomed. Thanks for sharing your peaceful spot."

"Our three generation family group had an excellent stay. The views of Eagle Lake from the cabin are spectacular! The expansive deck with comfortable Adirondack chairs provide great additional space for enjoying the views. The dock is well built with excellent bumpers and power cords to charge the boat batteries. We had plenty of parking next to the cabin for our vehicles and trailers. The co-hosts were very responsive to questions and requests. "

"Angie & Eric were great hosts & very welcoming. They treated us as if we were friends & reminded us that businesses would be closed because of the upcoming holiday. We had a great day in the boat with Eric guiding. The cabin was wonderful and fully supplied. Dinners on the deck with a fabulous view was a perfect way to end the day. "
