Our family's favourite place to go in the summer... year after year. I grew up cottaging just down the road, on Lake Rosseau, and now with a young family of my own this is truly a fantastic property from which to enjoy the best of Muskoka with young kids. You can relax and see your little one's almost everywhere on... More

I just had the pleasure of spending 2-1/2 days at Shamrock, taking part in an annual conference for our 20 Administrators. We were looking for something different – a place with charming and comfortable accommodations, intimate meeting space with natural light, scenic and serene surroundings – a place where staff could really relax for a couple of days out of...

Thanks to the Bryant family and crew for an excellent stay in the Muskokas. Dan and I were in the area for business and our stay at the Shamrock was relaxing and welcoming from the Bryant brothers and the waitress sisters particularly. We'll definitely be back for pleasure. Cheers, Bonnie and Dan

Our family(now a reunion of 33) have been going to Shamrock Lodge for 10 years. Our children started going to Shamrock when they were 10, 7, & 4 years of age. Now my sisters' families and my parents and my brother-in-law and sister-in-law and friends' families join us for a memory making week every summer. The ease of life, the... More

We have had a family tradition of coming to Shamrock Lodge for 14 years. We started coming before we even had children. It is not just a "place" to go in the summer - for us, it is like going to a friend's cottage, where you share none of the work! The Bryant family is extremely friendly and welcoming, being... More

My wife booked us into the Shamrock as she wanted us, our family of four includes our two daughters, aged 13 and 11, to have a nice dinner and a night of dancing. Many places don't cater to an all-ages, family occasion like this. But, the fine folks at the Shamrock Lodge do. From the experience of the booking through... More

Thanks to David and his family for such a nice review. We had a great time over the New Years. The mix between families and couples were perfect. I think when you have a cozy and homey atmosphere everyone gets to know each other. That is one of the nice things about our Lodge, people get acquainted very quickly. Its... More

We've been searching for years, for the perfect place for us to go year after year and I'm happy to say that we've finally found it! Shamrock Lodge couldn't be in a more gorgeous location. The view of Rosseau is what Muskoka is all about. The beach is perfect, the accomodations are more than reasonable and the food is spectacular!... More

I would recommend this spot to anyone and everyone. I travelled here with a group of 24 girlfriends and was more than impressed with the care and service of the Bryant Family (and Stew). The location is a dream spot in the heart of the muskokas nestled on Lake Rousseau. The view from all of the rooms were breathtaking. We... More

This reallly is a fabulous spot. I would recommend it to anyone -- families, friends, couples, etc. In Sept 2011, 24 of us stayed in the Driftwood and the Tom O'Shanter for our annual Girls Getaway Weekend. The rooms were well kept and comfortable. The views from the rooms and the dock were beautiful. We, too, enjoyed a ride around... More

Thank you for your kind review. This is a great spot to host a ladies retreat. Our Chef and his staff would like to say thank you too. You can have the most lavish accommodations and spectacular location but without great food the guests will not come back. We are small enough that our Chef and sou chefs make everything... More

This is a really great location. It's family run so has a great feel - far better and with much more character than any chain location. The staff were very nice and helpful (the owner very kindly gave us all a tour of the lake on his own boat) - anything that we asked for they were more than happy... More
