The separate CHALET next door sleeps up to 12. You can book each property separately from each other, or book them both together. See more info below:
For 7-night bookings, we normally book from Monday to Monday to allow folks who are also having events (such as a wedding or family reunions) to have time to set up before the event and then have a relaxing day of clean up before checking out.
SHARE YOUR VACATION or retreat with friends or family, but enjoy the space, privacy and comfort of an Inn with its authentic old-world charm (1889) and modern updated amenities. OR, have a smaller group? Check out our chalet next door! See below for more details on the chalet.
The Inn sleeps up to 30 in 10 uniquely decorated, well-appointed bedrooms with 10 bathrooms. Most bedrooms have private ensuite bathrooms and one of the 3rd floor bedrooms has a spectacular view from the ensuite outdoor deck. There is a mixture of queen, king and twin-sized beds. A few of them are bunks. Perfect for extended family gatherings or small retreats. It is also perfect for weddings and there have been many wonderful marriages at the Portage Inn. The large kitchen is fully outfitted with pretty much everything you need to cook up a storm and serve up to 30 people. It has many counter surfaces, 2 fridges and a Garland stove with 6 burners and 2 ovens, a commercial dishwasher, a triple sink and in the adjacent laundry room there is are 2 additional fridges and a deep freezer behind the bar in the Great Room.
Large families and caterers love it. There is a second kitchen on the 3rd floor. Most bedrooms have window air conditioning during the summer, and the kitchen, lounge and great room also have their own air conditioning and all have heat of course.

The Great Room provides dining areas for up to 30 and sports a large stone central fireplace, a pool table, a bar and lots of games. The 400-square-foot adjacent lounge is a screening room with a large-screen smart TV, and is also suitable as a meeting room.
Outside, the 1500 square foot patio, just off the Great Room with fantastic views of the lake and sunset, has tables/chairs for up to 60 and a propane BBQ. This is where most wedding parties have their reception under a big tent (you rent the tent--up to 60 people allowed).
There is a pretty English garden and open lawn areas perfect for games as well as a fire-pit. There is also lots of parking.
INN WATERFRONT: At the lake, a 4-minute walk down the hill, and across a dead-end dirt road, there is a sandy/pebbly walk-in beach and the inn's exclusive private dock.

If we cannot rebook, then the cleaning fee, any special event venue fee, and security/damage deposit (and any applicable HST) are fully refundable. (We find it does not work for us to take dates off the market, turn other guests away (dozens over time) and take the risk for everybody else's crazy schedules! And, nobody ever knocks on our door looking for last-minute accommodation for 10 to 30 people.)
This property is great for family vacations, weddings (maximum 60 wedding guests) or retreats of any sort. We've had business retreats, artists' retreats, yoga retreats or educational retreats. We help connect you with vendors such as caterers.
