6/10 Good

The room was clean, and check-in and check-out were both easy. There was a fairly strong Lysol/cleaner smell when we arrived, but otherwise the room was well kept. Our main concern was the short notice regarding a power and water disruption. We were notified around 9:00 p.m. the night before that the power would be shut off starting at 5:00 a.m. the following morning. Had we known earlier, we likely would have made other arrangements, especially since we had an important event to attend that day. I also contacted the property afterward to ask about a partial refund due to the disruption, but unfortunately have not received a response after a week. Overall, the stay was fine aside from the communication surrounding the outage and the lack of follow-up afterward.

The Quiet of Quiet Bay Inn

Our stay was very good. The name Quiet Bay says it all, we never heard any outside noise, the beds were comfortable and the room was very clean. Very handy to have the cafe right there as well. We will definitely stay there again.

Love this local gem in the Magnetawan area. They were responsive and accommodating to our late arrival. The room was clean and had everything we needed. It was topped off by a hearty, delicious breakfast at the cafe the next morning.

Ok place

Overall this was a decent place. Windows need to be fixed and shower very tiny and rooms need a bit more sound proofing. Place was clean and tidy. Location in a beautiful north setting away from road.

I was here three nights as I was working in the area. The room was comfortable and spacious. The area is so quiet and relaxing. Be sure to read the various little signs posted around the room, because the owners have me and care to help make your stay comfortable and convenient. I particularly appreciated the organics container and recycling sorting bins in my room! I’m returning in a few weeks to wrap up my business in Magnetawan, and am about to book my stay here again.

Everything was awesome , loved the room it was big, clean and comfortable. The only complaint was the hot tub didn’t work, the owner was there when we arrived and i expressed my disappointment and she apologized and said she would get that information changed. She was also very kind and got me ice when everything was closed, I would stay here again.

The Quiet Bay Inn is actually very quiet and calm. The lake at the backyard is awesome. Also the property is very clean and tidy. Kidos to the cleaners who have kept it spotless. Even the microwave ovens, coffee mugs were squeaky clean. I like the way the rooms are designed: Car park at the front and lawn at the back and the lake at a distance. Also they did a good job by providing the menu of the nearest restaurants. We went to Tanner's on Saturday & Sunday (Oct 12 & 13 2024) evening for dinner and it was a great experience.

6/10 Good

The check in/out process was very easy and straight forward. The motel was very quiet, which we really enjoyed. The room was clean, although the ceiling fan and bathroom fan need to be cleaned. The mattresses and pillows were very old and uncomfortable. The sheets were also old and in need of replacing (they were very thin, pilling, and had holes). The hot tub was broken. The restaurant on the property was okay, good coffee though. Unlikely to change, given that the property is now for sale. Overall it was a very basic accomodation.

Property is currently for sale. Hot tub is in disrepair. No AC. Generally in need of a good update. The room was very clean.
