Was pleasantly surprised when we arrived, (came in 3rd wk of August) the cabins are fantastic! ALL amenities! The owner is VERY hospitable. I'd recommend this to friends, family & would return visit! Great cross breeze through the cabins, it was perfect!
We stayed 4 nights. Cute and rustic accommodations. Cabin had everything you need. The owners are super friendly and helpful. We're going back in fèw weeks.
Yet another wonderful stay at the Ausable River Resort. The cabins are quaint and we felt like we were transported back to a simpler time. The staff was very attentive to anything we needed. Is there A/C, no, was it needed, again, no. Are the cabins old, yes, is that part of the charm, absolutely. We'll be back again next year.
Stayed here for a long weekend to get some rest and relaxation. Prices were affordable and what I would expect for the amount paid . Staff was great and very friendly. Would stay here again when in the area. This place is out and away from the city, which is what I love.
Hot showers, a comfortable bed, peace and quiet. What more could you need? The owner was super friendly and accommodating. I also enjoyed having Molly (the resident dog) come around to say hi. Thanks for a great stay!
This is a great little hidden gem. The cabins are clean and have everything you need to cook. A fridge, stove, toaster, microwave and coffee maker. It's a nice little property right off the highway Larry the owner is a fantastic guy. Very friendly. If you are planning to travel to this area to hunt or fish or just explore the Au Sauble River... this is a perfect place to stay!!
