Reviews and Ratings
I had a great time at the Grand Tappattoo Resort! The rooms were very nice, clean, and comfortable, and I especially loved the patio overlooking the lake. The service was good overall, although it was occasionally hard to find someone in the bar during non-meal times. The location was ideal, close to Parry Sound yet secluded enough to enjoy nature fully. The dining options, while limited, were part of the MAP package and quite satisfying. The facilities were well-equipped, making my stay enjoyable.
I was fortunate to stay at a lovely hotel on a quiet lake amidst the granite near Georgian Bay. The room was very simple with a small closet, a comfortable king bed, and basic furniture. The service was good overall, though occasionally hard to find staff in the bar. The location was ideal, close to Parry Sound yet secluded enough to enjoy nature. The dining options were limited but included tasty meals. The facilities, including an indoor pool and fitness room, were good.
The hotel is located on a beautiful lake amidst the granite near Georgian Bay, offering unlimited boating activities and delightful dining with a picturesque view. The rooms, although comfortable with a balcony overlooking the water, require updating. The friendly service was accommodating to dietary preferences, but there were some instances of complacency. The price was reasonable given the amenities provided.
