Lovely get away

Great stay. Room was lovely and the deck with view was great to relax for an evening. Not a fan of non-compostable keurig coffee pods. Breakfast underwhelming but there were some nice local options to make up for it. Restaurant was amazing for supper.

Enjoyed Our Stay

We stayed for 3 nights and found The Fourth Lock to be an excellent choice. We dined one night at the Fourth Lock restaurant and the meal was excellent at a reasonable price. Our host was very friendly and informative as well, giving us travel suggestions. A couple minor nit picks are the bed was a bit too soft and breakfast was not ideal for someone that can't eat much sugar. The view of the lake from the deck was very nice though the road was quite busy.

We were only advised by email on the day of arrival that the dining room closed due to an event. Our room was changed to the top floor, facing the front where a Wedding reception of extremely noisy music was blaring & people shouting until 12.30 am so not much sleep. The banister railing to our room Thomas was very loose & very steep stairs were dangerous as no landing at top of stairs. Breakfast was in fridge for the following morning of a bowl, with 2 apples, 1 orange & cereal bars. We emailed the website to complain & ask for a refund, no response.

Do not stay here

Disappointing when there is no one to greet you when you show up and then get into the room with zero charm and a bed that is literally on the floor. 2 hour wait in the restaurant for guests and we were told to come back in 2 hours and when we returned we were told the kitchen was closed. Breakfast was already in the room and included a stale dry muffin and a rotten apple. Awful stay and overall experience.

My parents and I had dinner and stayed a night at The Fourth Lock before heading home the next morning. The food was delicious and the restaurant's ambiance was wonderful with beautiful views of the lake. The room we stayed at was very spacious, clean and comfortable and also had an excellent view of the lake. Highly recommended!

Hot!

Beautiful upstairs suite. However was very hot on arrival at 30.5 degrees. Would be very helpful if the air was started on hot summer days. Breakfast wasn’t as good, like other reviews indicated. Rice krispy , water and apples/oranges, muffins. Also broken glass on balcony door which cut my nephews hand.

Fantastic place

Fablous accomodation. We had a lovely room overlooking the water. The room had everything you needed and the communal area was really nice. We also used the restaurant and the food was really good. All the staff we came in contact with were so friendly and really helpful. Especially when we went to check in as we has a small hidcup but was soon resolved by 2 of the staff quickly .. i would highly recommended this place to anyone.

The room was lovely and clean. The bed was very, very low and soggy and the word breakfast. They shouldn’t use that because all they’re giving you is some treats in a basket and a bit of fruit. There’s nothing nourishing about it.

The owner is very customer oriented and made us feel welcome. The food at the restaurant was some of the best we've had, especially the blackened haddock and the brisket burger. Kudos to the staff.
