I attended a wedding over the weekend in Bala and stayed at CranberryMoon. The rooms were recently renovated and the owners have put a great deal of care into the work and beautiful finishing touches. The hosts are very attentive and cared that everyone had a great stay.

This place is a brand new gem. Beautiful, spotless room, most comfortable enormous bed, one of the best showers I’ve ever experienced. Kim and Doug are the charming hosts. We had a delightful chat with them over a great breakfast on their lovely patio with a view of the river. Bala is a short walk, including the amazing Kee to Bala venue, where we were watching the phenomenal Tiny Horse open for the glorious Glorious Sons. A trip to remember for all the right reasons.

Hesitant to share! Kim and Doug are the best hosts ever. Beautiful property, close to everything. Lovely breakfast. Lots of games in the living room. We used the SUPS which was so relaxing. Really everything was perfect. We will return!

We had a wonderful weekend at Cranberry Moon while up in Muskoka for a couple of concerts at the Kee. Great hosts !!

The BEST experience at a bed and breakfast! I initially booked this as just a place to sleep as I was surprising my partner with a concert at the Kee To Bala (incredible venue). Boy, was I impressed by this place. Doug & Kim are wonderful hosts. They are so friendly and welcoming! The property itself is beautifully renovated inside and the outdoor amenities can keep you busy all day. The easy access to the lake right in front of the house was so convenient, too. My partner and I started making plans to come back after our first night there! 2 nights is not enough! Thank you Kim & Doug!

Kim and Doug were great hosts, always making sure I had what I needed. Beautiful rooms in a relaxing atmosphere. Just what I needed for a couple days away. Also ten min walk from the Kee to Bala so nice and convenient.

**A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Bala** It’s with great reluctance that I share this review—only because the Cranberry Moon Inn B&B is the kind of place you selfishly want to keep to yourself. Nestled in the heart of Bala, this charming retreat is a true hidden gem, offering a perfect blend of comfort, style, and heartfelt hospitality. From the moment you arrive, Kim and Doug welcome you like old friends. Their warmth is matched only by their deep knowledge of the area, generously offering tips on everything from scenic walks to the best local eats. The inn itself is beautifully appointed—each room thoughtfully redecorated with a modern yet cozy flair. The bathrooms, in particular, are a standout: spacious, sparkling, and spa-like. Location-wise, it couldn’t be better. Just a short stroll brings you to Bala’s quaint shops, inviting restaurants, and the iconic KEE to Bala. Whether you're here for a weekend escape or a longer stay, the Cranberry Moon Inn offers a serene, stylish base for exploring Muskoka. Highly recommended—just don’t tell too many people.

Weekend on the Water and Concerts!!

Just stayed the weekend for a couple shows at Kee, and it was a perfect spot! Short walk to Kee to Bala, boat launch and dock across the street with free SUP and kayaks included. A hot tub and large shared deck for relaxing. Well-appointed suites in very clean and modern condition. Free continental breakfast, and above all else, great service from the friendly inn owners. Thanks, Kim and Doug! See you again! Adam & Ashley

We enjoyed our 3 night stay at Cranberry Moon Inn B & B. The house and rooms were very clean and neat, Doug and Sue were great hosts as well. Their house is conveniently located to Bala and a 10 minute walk to the 'Key to Bala'.

Our stay at The Cranberry Moon Inn was fantastic. This B&B was convenient located in Bala, which allowed for us to enjoy a variety of winter activities in the area. The B&B was beautifully finished. You really can see the thought that was put into how it was planned and decorated. The owners, Kim and Doug, were excellent hosts. They really catered to our every need.

We had a wonderful stay in a comfortable and spacious room with a spotless and large en suite bathroom. The area is very beautiful, water is just across the street. Had a nice dip in the hot tub which was a great amenity.
Jill, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The best compliment t that I can pay is that Doug and Kim made it feel like I was staying with friends. They went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and to make things available that would make my stay enjoyable. The rooms are stunning as is the view. I visited the local winery, did a cranberry plunge, went kayaking on the moon river right in front of the inn - they supplied the kayak at no cost. The town is delightful and steps away from the In. So you can take a walk and enjoy the lake, the river, the falls, a few cute boutiques and a couple of restaurants. If you go during the Cranberry Festival (I didn’t) the population of roughly 800 swells to over 20,000 for the weekend with music, food and shopping vendors and lots more walkable from the Inn. I would definitely go again.
