Absolutely lovely Inn, right on highway 6. Walking distance to the marina and shops/restaurants in Tobermory, and within 15 minutes of Bruce National Park, The Grotto, and Halfway Log Dump. Lots of restaurant options across the street, as well as a grocery store. Yvette the Innkeeper was delightful. They have bikes you can take if you’d rather not walk to town. We would definitely stay again.

We loved it! Stayed in the loft upstairs and it was lovely. Huge bed, great open space and the private deck overlooking the parks/woods was wonderful. Breakfast was able to be ‘to go’ so warmed breakfast sandwiches and burrito types. Perf loCation - easy and safe to walk on the road. I also used the provided bike and biked around a bit too. Two taco places across the street. Loved the views and both Robin and Jim were incredibly personable!

The location is excellent for walking into town for dining and shopping. Tobermory is definitely a beautiful Canadian vacation spot.

The deck was so welcoming to relax contemplate or just read a book. The room was rustic decor but yet very cozy. Every morning we were invited to the outdoor kitchen and enjoyed a warm breakfast prepare Robin and Jim (I hope I got your name right) and hot coffee! Thank you both for a wonderful stay!

Excellent location and just the getaway we needed. In walking distance to the water and grocery store. Rustic comfy vibes at this Inn. The bed was comfortable, spacious shower and deck. Yvette the Inn keeper was amazing, she prepared a lovely continental breakfast with coffee every morning which we ate on adirondak chairs surrounded by a beautifully landscaped lot.We had a camp fire at night with some other visitors, grateful for our memorable stay.

Very close to the different parks in the area, and the town was very walkable if chosen to do so. 10 min walk into the town, 15-20 min drive to singing sands or the grotto. Also close to food spots if you're hungry for a meal. Jim and Robin were great hosts, breakfast every morning was fresh with fruits and a sandwich/burrito. They provided wonderful recommendations that did not disappoint, and they were knowledgeable about the area. Rooms were clean, nice hot shower, and a mini fridge to store anything you brought. Overall, great experience and some of the kindest people around. Would definitely recommend and come back again!

Cute vibes, tucked away nicely in the woods while still being a convenient location within walking distance of the town and excellent food options across the street. The bed was comfortable and overall it was a wonderful place to stay. Soundproofing could be improved, as it was possible to hear snoring and the TV from other guests.

Made our stay so comfortable and enjoyable. The best part was the last night when she called the guest to sit and chat around the bonfire she arranged. I would certainly recommend and will stay there again if I ever visit Tobermory second Time.

Very close to the different parks in the area, and the town was very walkable if chosen to do so. 10 min walk into the town, 15-20 min drive to singing sands or the grotto. Also close to food spots if you're hungry for a meal. Jim and Robin were great hosts, breakfast every morning was fresh with fruits and a sandwich/burrito. They provided wonderful recommendations that did not disappoint, and they were knowledgeable about the area. Rooms were clean, nice hot shower, and a mini fridge to store anything you brought. Overall, great experience and some of the kindest people around. Would definitely recommend and come back again!

Absolutely lovely Inn, right on highway 6. Walking distance to the marina and shops/restaurants in Tobermory, and within 15 minutes of Bruce National Park, The Grotto, and Halfway Log Dump. Lots of restaurant options across the street, as well as a grocery store. They have bikes you can take if you’d rather not walk to town. We would definitely stay again.

We had a lovely time. The room was clean and comfortable. The bathtub was so nice. The only thing that we were disappointed about was that in your advertisement it said continental breakfast. The bananas and yogurt were nice but we were expecting an actual breakfast.

We were here for a girls’ getaway and it was perfect. Yvette, our host, was very welcoming and the room was clean and comfortable. We loved the mermaid themed decor and the outdoor kitchen with self serve coffee and breakfast treats. A very convenient location to all restaurants and activities.

Very cute, very comfortable. The "continental breakfast" could use a tweak or two. Muffins, unripe bananas and tiny portions of yogurt did not satisfy. Otherwise, very nice.

We loved it! Stayed in the loft upstairs and it was lovely. Huge bed, great open space and the private deck overlooking the parks/woods was wonderful. Breakfast was able to be ‘to go’ so warmed breakfast sandwiches and burrito types. Perf loCation - easy and safe to walk on the road. I also used the provided bike and biked around a bit too. Two taco places across the street. Loved the views and both Robin and Jim were incredibly personable!

What a wonderful stay! The accommodation was absolutely excellent — just a short walk to town. The rooms were beautifully decorated with thoughtful touches, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. Breakfast was beyond delicious — truly the perfect start to each day

We were greeted by our host as soon as we arrived. Robin and her husband gave us a warm welcome and introduced us to our room that back to a enchanted forest. The deck was so welcoming to relax contemplate or just read a book. The room was rustic decor but yet very cozy. Every morning we were invited to the outdoor kitchen and enjoyed a warm breakfast prepare Robin and Jim (I hope I got your name right) and hot coffee! Thank you both for a wonderful stay!

Our host was the best. She had fresh baked unique item every day. She even caught us as we were leaving with a snack for the trip. The room was spectacular. It was warm and colorful. We did not want to leave.

Excellent location and just the getaway we needed. In walking distance to the water and grocery store. Rustic comfy vibes at this Inn. The bed was comfortable, spacious shower and deck. Yvette the Inn keeper was amazing, she prepared a lovely continental breakfast with coffee every morning which we ate on adirondak chairs surrounded by a beautifully landscaped lot.We had a camp fire at night with some other visitors, grateful for our memorable stay.

It's a beautiful property in a pretty town. The room was outstanding and the hosts couldn't have been nicer (including Ozzie). Has station was 2 does away but is now closed. The nearest gas station is 45km South in Ferndale so you should gas up before arriving. You can walk to ships, restaurants, village, and cruise docks and leave the car. I hope we get to stay there again!

Robin and Jim are so very welcoming and it’s nice to start the day with a good breakfast. Location is very close to town and activities and so being able to walk is great. Rooms are quiet, have everything we needed and so overall a great stay at the Robin’s Nest.
