From My Notes: Very helpful manager (Bruce Rypkema); had small issues regarding heat and turning on the fridge (both my fault); nice big rooms; completely equipped; adjacent to a lake with canoe availability; very reasonably priced; good television selection; and a great breakfast to go with it. This was really nice because we weren't going to make it much farther... More

This little gem of a motel is located in a scenic setting on the English River. They offer some lovely outdoor amenities including a dock, a boat to rent, a picnic area and a hiking trail. The rooms are clean and spacious, and the owners are very pleasant. We really appreciated the self-serve meals, since the motel is in a... More

Great experience here, room was clean, well priced and the landscape and owners were great. Best place to stop in Ontario I've found yet. Would come back in a second

Take a seat on a shore line bench and enjoy the calming sounds of the water. This small welcoming motel was just what the doctor ordered after many many hours of driving. Although the rooms were dated they were very large and very clean. Our room had two comfy chairs where we sat reading and enjoying the sports channels. Convenience... More

I stayed at several hotels on a road trip from Alberta to Ontario, and the English River Inn was by far the best of the lot. Located on a very scenic river (complete with benches and a small dock to sit and enjoy it) the owners were very friendly and gracious. Rooms were very clean, spacious, and well-maintained, plus free... More
