Some Pictures Taken Around the Property

A Very determined Mother Turtle.

However, we did not think that this was the best place to lay her eggs. Once the deed was done she decided to cross the highway and go back to the lake that way. Confused or just tradition ? We do not know !

Spring Photography In Algonquin Park

Our last couple of weeks have been very busy and exciting, photography enthusiasts filled the Inn. One of our groups came with Michael Reichman of Luminous Landscapes and Pulitzer Prize winning landscape photographer Jack Dykinga, who conducted a photography workshop on the Moose in Algonquin Park. Some other photographers came from Montreal Canada, Ireland, and the USA. They were a super crowd of people and their pictures were exceptional.o get out their with his camera too. To make things even better, the Moose seemed to be very co-operative and turn up most evenings conveniently on the side of Highway 60,
just five minutes before the Park.
Above are some pictures Hope you get a kick out of them and maybe it will inspire you to come stay with us and get some great pictures of your own.

A Time for Moose, Birds, Sunshine, and The Algonquin Park

Well, it seems that it has been a while since I sat down and did an update on current events at the Inn.
The weather has been very changeable lately, however, this week things seem to be looking up. I can tell by the number of drive by guests coming in each day looking for quality accommodations close to the park. We really are just minutes from the Algonquin Provincial Park, and with the price of gasoline these days the Algonquin Inn is very convenient if you want to visit the park several times over a period of days.

Discounted Algonquin Park Day Passes

Two years ago we began offering our guests who stayed with us two or more days the opportunity to buy one of our passes for a day at half the price charged at the Park Gate.

• This turned out to be a very popular program.
• The reason that we can only offer it to our guests staying two or more days is that the pass must be returned at the end of the day, so that it is available to our incoming guests.
• There is not an unlimited supply and therefore if we do not have any left, our guests will then have to purchase one at the gate.
• When a park pass is given out the guest will have a deposit of Cdn $ 100 added to their room charge and as soon as the pass is returned, this deposit is deleted from their bill.

We hope that our guests will enjoy this program this year also !

Green Key Enviromental Award

The Algonquin Inn has recently applied to and received the HAC Green Eco-Rating Program award. Four Green Keys out of five were achieved. This means that we are constantly trying to meet environmental standards in our housekeeping, grounds keeping, energy usage etc. We endeavour to offer our guests quality services while at the same time being sensitive to our environment. After all, the majority of guests, from all corners of the world are here to experience the beauty and serenity of the Algonquin Provicial Park. We therefore request that such luxuries are used with consideration of our surroundings.i.e. air conditioning used while our guests are in residence. Our rooms do not have fridges or microwaves, but we encourage the use of cool boxes. We have an onsite dining room which provides breakfast and Dinners for our guests, and sandwhiches for lunch at the park. Canoes and kayaks are promoted as the vehicle of choice on Oxtongue Lake, as of course they do not pollute the water. These are small things but as we all know, if we all do a little bit, as a whole we can do great things. We hope that you will keep this in mind when you choose to come and stay with us, and feel inspired to continue by assisting us to be as environmentally friendly as we can.

A Lovely Surprise !

Currently, the Inn is closed to guests for the winter season. That
does not however, mean that we are not reachable to our previous and future guests. We are answering emails and returning phone calls for those who are not inclined to use the online booking system. Anyway, I digress, the surprise was a beautiful photograph of the Algonquin Lakside Inn, taken by one of our very thoughtful guests, who after returning to their home Germany, and was reviewing the vacation photos. On coming across this particular picture they decided to share it with us. We love it ! and wonder if there are any of our other previous guests who would like to share their photos taken while staying with us. They do not need to be of the Inn itself, we would welcome wildlife, our Chipmunks, which all guests of Algonquin Inn know we have a lot of, or the Hummingbirds, a picture of you outside the Inn, taking out a canoe, climbing Ragged Falls, we would love to add to our very new and at this time, small Online Gallery.


Send them to us at
stay@algonquininn.com we would love to hear from you .......

Visit Algonquin During Spring Because...

Why you might ask ? Well, the reasons are endless.

To get away from the everyday stresses that ail you, commuting, traffic, kids, family and yes, lets not forget work.
Everyone at the Algonquin Inn understands that there are countless reasons why their guests come to them. We know that we may not be the destination, but, a place to stay whilst enjoying the tranquility and wonder of the Algonquin Park we offer clean comfortable accommodations, a dining room serving delicious food with special diets accommodated. Most accommodations set up to suit couples, meaning most rooms have queen or kingsize bed and lakefront views, fireplaces and whirlpool tubs.
Algonquin Park is almost on your doorstep, which means you can be their at dawn or dusk to look for and photograph Moose, then return for a delicious breakfast before returning to the park for a day of hiking and then coming back at the end of your day and enjoying a refreshing shower or soak in your whirlpool followed by a relaxing dinner. Mmmmm....... that sounds relaxing to me, how about you ?
