NOTL - great location

A great weekend get-a-way stay. Host, Marie-Clair was wonderful. The property was beautiful and spacious. Room was very comfortable with great AC (was a hot weekend) and fantastic balcony. Ideally located near the water and minutes from the Village. Everything was walkable.

We stayed in the “Rose” room which was lovely. We enjoyed the lovely room, as well as the charming breakfast area and porch. The patio overlooks the park and lake, making for a delightful spot to enjoy a cup of coffee. The beds were fine. We loved the location, the charming atmosphere, and the value for our money. I will recommend to other travelers looking for a quaint stay in NOTL!!!

Not much options for breakfast. One kind of omelette, one meat offered. Only got one slice of toast. Ran out of jam, no peanut butter available. Slim pickings. Fruit was in a tiny ramekin- held 9 pieces, 4 of them were blueberries

2 nights stay. Great location and historic home made B&B. Rooms and terrace/balconies lend to overall experience. The cooked-to-order breakfast was delightfully served in a dining area off of a terrace. On site parking is tight but accommodating. Restaurants and shopping is a few walkable blocks away.

Beautiful property and was convenient to everything in the area. Coffee on the front porch overlooking the lake was a joy. WiFi was not working initially but a fix was found. Property parking was a real bonus. Very clean and comfortable. I would definitely recommend The Old Bank House.

It is actually an original bank from the area and filled with antiques. Beautiful! Also, for photography buffs, there is an extensive antique camera collection in the common room plus original black and white photographs all through the property.

I had a really great stay here! The staff were super friendly and helpful from the start. Even though I was running late and missed the usual check-in time, they reached out to me by email and even gave me a call to check in and make sure everything was okay. They gave me super clear instructions on how to get into the room, and when I arrived, one of the staff was actually waiting for me—such a thoughtful gesture! She was incredibly kind, explained everything clearly—where to go, where to park, how breakfast works, etc. We had a lovely little chat, and she made me feel really welcome. The breakfast the next morning was served right on time—fresh, hot, and really tasty. And the location? Absolutely perfect. The house is right across from a beautiful lake with amazing views, and it’s just a short walk to the city center with all the restaurants and shops nearby. Couldn’t have asked for better. Honestly, it’s a 5-star experience all around. Would definitely stay again!

We really enjoyed our 1 night saty mid-week this June. The beds were super comfy and the staff friendly and useful. We stayed in the Rose room. Our only complaint was our room was hot at night. It was 24 degrees outside and our room didn't cool down at night. There was central air with a/c working downstairs, but we didnt notice any cool coming out of our vents until the a.m. We opened windows, but it was a calm, still night. We didnt bring this up with staff, so dont know if there would have been a remedy. We ended up sleeping well.
