We had a great mini vacation there. The staff were very friendly. The restaurant was amazing and walking distance to four locks which was great too. Will probably make this a yearly ritual.
The Inn has personality. Very warm and inviting with classic traditional decor without being stuffy . The outdoor spaces and view of the lake were great to wake up to each day.

The jet tub was excellent to relax in, staff were very friendly and the view by the lake was so peaceful
The Inn by the Lake was a great place to stay while we were visiting Halifax.
The staff were incredibly helpful and kind as it was our first time in Nova Scotia.
The property was lovely.
We would stay again
We enjoyed staying at the hotel. The staff at check-in were lovely, and also the waitress at the restaurant. Make sure to try the seafood chowder, excellent! Lovely location on a lake where they have weddings. Walking distance to other restaurants as well. Loved the self parking by my room, made it very convenient. I would stay there again.
This Inn has a cool nostalgic vibe and is only 9 minutes from Halifax Airport! Very nice staff and pretty grounds. Easy to get to. Very clean room. Stairs only and restaurants not open late or on Mon/Tues. will stay again !
The room was very clean. The patio looked out at the bay. The bed was very comfortable. The restaurant was very good. The staff was very friendly. Only about 18 mins from the airport.

Excellent location, next to a lake. Accessible for guests with personal transport.
Property is dated, needs refurbishing. Restaurant was very good. Staff was excellent especially Tammy and Akshay.
Clean rooms, very comfortable bed, one of the best omelets I had in the restaurant. I would suggest that they have cream/sugar in the room for the coffee machine.
