Vacanze Carnarvon

Priced too high

A beautiful cabin with all mod cons

Location of the resort is great. The beach is not really a beach, more a like a seawall with a couple of entrances into the water on the side. Very few muskoka chairs that are taken by guests super quickly. A nice boat dock you can watch sunset from, that was really nice. We stayed in a room in the main building, so I cannot comment on the cabins. The room was clean, but super outdated. Old style cheap beds with a loud outdated AC, at night was loud. EARLY 10 am checkout is terrible. For the total price paid for it, it is not worth it. But if it was cheaper, yes it is a good choice. AND there are no jetski rentals! Even though a picture exists here in the listing.

The site listed that there is onsite restaurant for breakfast, dinner and snacks . They site also lists that this is unique find because this property offers continental breakfast. None of that is true . The dinner at restaurant- reservation closes at 2pm and it’s an expensive buffet . No breakfast. They had croissants available for pick and go in a paper bag. Not even a comfy place to sit and peacefully eat. Nearest food place is in Huntsville which is 30 mins drive . Such a ridiculous false advertisement for a $450 night property . Such a shame that they advertise but don’t provide continental breakfast

I found Christie Mill Inn & Spa while searching online for a pet-friendly place to stay, and I'm so glad I did! This little inn is absolutely charming and ended up being the perfect getaway for us. The restaurant was a wonderful surprise. The food was far better than we expected, and every meal was delicious. The staff truly made our stay special. Owen was amazing! He helped us with the canoes, peddle boats, and paddle boards, and he regularly checked in to make sure we were having a great time and had everything we needed. His friendly attitude really stood out. The woman at the front desk (I'm so sorry I forgot her name!) was also incredibly kind, patient, and helpful. She answered all of my questions and made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. One thing to note is that there are quite a few geese around the property, so there was some goose poop on parts of the beach and grassy areas. As someone who is used to being around animals, it really wasn't a big deal—we simply worked around it and still enjoyed everything the property had to offer. Overall, this place was exactly what we were looking for. It was relaxing, pet-friendly, and offered so many fun activities. We can't wait to come back for another stay, enjoy the restaurant again, and spend more time on the water. Highly recommend Christie Mill Inn & Spa!
