Wow....what a wonderful review. I remember we'll standing in the darkness at the dam sharing the experience of the star filled sky. When you time in a city or a place with too much light pollution one can only guess what that sky would look like. As the darken comes in on us earlier these days the stars for some... More

After reading two prior reviews from, “the young professionals” giving Sunny Rock Bed and Breakfast only two stars, I feel compelled to write my own. It was my husbands 40th and he didn’t want a big party he wanted a nice relaxing holiday with fishing, canoeing and children free! Our gracious hosts Sally and Jan gave us that, R &... More

My girlfriend and I stayed here on July 14-15 with our friends (whom also wrote a review under the name Luv2travel0548). As mentioned below the accommodations were adequate and the natural aspects of the surrounding lakes were beautiful. However, I am absolutely appalled by the ridiculous statements made by margden1 below regarding our "behaviour". I don't quite understand why a... More

Thank you for the valued description of our property and bed and breakfast. We are fortunate to be the only B&B in the Haliburton Highlands on 3 different types of water. Canning Lake is across the road with access from the area of the Scott's Dam...the waters of Canning Lake flow over the Scott's Dam and make a wonderful waterfall...and... More

My husband and I booked two night's holiday July 15-16 at Sunny Rock. We had never visited here before, but Sunny Rock and Sally had come highly recommended. We enjoyed two days of her delectable breakfasts, all-day snacks, and beautiful accommodation. The setting is amazing and opportunities to explore the waterways and local area were inviting. She suggested restaurant destinations... More

Having a demanding week ahead of me, I needed a comfortable, clean, space to sleep and have breakfast. The Sunny Rock and Host Sally far exceeded any expectations I had. Following a warm welcome, I was given a tour of the beautiful and historic property, located adjacent to Scott's Dam. The flowing water over the rocks, the resident osprey, blue... More

So any thanks for your wonderful comments. It is folks like yourself that truly get the tranquil cottage like setting in the Haliburton Highlands. To be able to leave the stresses of another place and enter in to this grounded environment would be a positive experience for some. I would agree We sure did have a wonderful time and I... More
