Inn on the Lake

Inn on the Lake

This inn is conveniently located right off the highway and is near Halifax. More importantly for those who fly, the inn is only an exit away from the Halifax Airport and has a van that can take you to the airport if you spend your last night there. Like so many of the buildings where we stayed in Nova Scotia, the inn has no elevator, and we spent one night on the second floor and one night on the third floor. There are people to carry luggage to the rooms if yoou desire help. The rooms were adequate, but the night we spent on the third floor, we were in a room that was a smoking room because there were no non-smoking rooms available. We didn't care for that. The hotel has a restaurant and it too was adequate. We did not find the service to be very prompt our first time eating there. Mentioning this seemed to get us better service the second time. Actually, while people are nice and friendly, we found that in our experience, waiters and waitresses could learn a lot from American restaurant workers who understand how to be more solicitous and speedy with service everywhere we ate throughout the country. Also while food in Nova Scotia can be good, in general, it was not the mouthwatering experience that perhaps we had our hopes too high to realize. On the positive side, the Inn on the Lake is certainly conveniently located in a beautiful setting. If one takes time to take advantage of the amenities, there are tennis, horseshoes, basketball, and lake and pool swimming. My husband really enjoyed his swims in both, especially because the water was cool and clean. The inn has sports equipment for guests, and if we had had the time, the temperature would have been delightful for tennis or a little one-on-one. There were people kayaking on the lake and the flowers all around the inn were wonderful. While the inn might want to replace some of the entrance carpet, there was certainly a real effort to maintain the grounds and the rooms. One of the things we noticed occasionally was a funny taste and smell to the water in the rooms here. That really bothered us. Otherwise, we enjoyed walking around the grounds. In fact, experiences we had with the Inn on the Lake were most positive when we went outside and enjoyed what is best about the inn: the grounds and natural setting.
