The Little Inn of Bayfield

The Little Inn of Bayfield

10/10 Excellent
"We really enjoyed our stay we had read and heard so much about the place over the years. We are going back for Thanksgiving. The Inn is surprisingly well-maintained considering its age and the area and main street is just beautiful and how you can just walk to Pioneer Park Lake Huron and the food was great."

"Lovely Inn and great staff. It was clean and well appointed, Just a heads up, there is no Uber or taxis in St Mary's and they all come from Stratford, so plan ahead if planning on using those services. St Mary's is a very cute town and worth the visit."

"What you see is what you get. It's a simple hotel, but everything is clean and organized. I enjoyed my stay and would go again. It's a little far off the Grand Bend strip but not a big deal if you don't mind walking and don't have a lot to carry."

10/10 Excellent
"Resort was good and clean, I had a good trip with the family. indoor swimming pool and suna were clean. overal a good stay, about 5 min walking to a beautiful beach. staff were friendly, I requested more towels around 10 pm and arrived in a few minutes. also, beautiful village . Suggestions: 1) general staff were friendly, the help desk (for check in and out) could use a smile though. 2) resturant and staff was good, I think better they better have more variaty of food for breakfast 3) room was fairly clean and maintained. the plastic toilet seat has a lot of mileage and needed to be replaced. 4) they need to put more signs outside, first time it took us a few minutes to find the direction to the beach. 5) in the last day, we found that suna has a timer outside, and there was no clear instruction. I asked a other guest and they did not have an idea which a timer should be set."

"The kiwi is fantastic, so cute and clean. That being said, the pool and hot tub area were pretty sad. The entire pool liner was lifting and the hot tub was dirty and cold. We weren’t there for the pool so this had no impact on us and we would definitely stay again"
