Arowhon Pines

Arowhon Pines is simply one of my favourite places, not just in Canada, but in the world.
There is a reason why the closing shot of a Tourism Ontario tv commercial was of the sun setting on the water at Arowhon when I was watching television in Geneva, Switzerland.
While the resort is costly, do not expect luxurious accommodations. The cabins are simple and rustic. You are paying for one of the most beautiful natural locations in Canada in Algonquin Park and a first class kitchen where you can order just about any amount of anything prepared each day on their pre-​set menu.
You are welcome to order one main course followed by a second main course or something tasty you noticed on your friend’s plate.
They also offer a very large, delicious sweet table at lunch and dinner.
We stayed at Arowhon this summer for the first time in many years. Despite new ownership they have not missed a step. Perfect customer service, paired with lots of wildlife (we saw a beaver swim by the dock) and gorgeous food.
There were too many delicious dishes to remember. The maple glazed ham was the best I had ever had. And yet the lobster with ginger and orange and prime rib were also delectable. The sweet table was almost overwhelming. There were so many amazing things that I wanted to try I literally could not taste them all. The cherry pie, butter tarts, pastry with custard and blueberries, and lemon tart were all shockingly good.
Arowhon is a very special place that I would recommend to anyone.
