Friday Harbour Resort

Gorgeous view, with impeccable service and fantastic food, and overall a far better experience than we have had with restaurants in Toronto. We were a large group (20+), but our hostess, Mennie, made sure we were wanting and waiting for nothing. It was clear the servers were well informed, and took pride in their work, and in the food and drinks they served us. This restaurant is worth the drive, or even as a pitstop between destinations.

We visited Friday Harbour because a friend had recently visited and posted photos of the area. During our visit we felt unwanted there as we didn't own a property there. Everything was an added cost and there just wasn't enough to do. We took a lovely boat ride and walked around. We wanted to go to the little tiny beach but that was way overpriced. We won't bother going back to Friday Harbour.

I was there as a family of four we had a great day: for breakfast there is a Starbucks, Italian cafe with great espresso, French bakery. We rented bikes and cycled through the resort,up to the golf course and back to the lake. Lunch at Marine room was great, on the harbour. Then hand painted pottery at Crockadoodle it was fun. We then headed to the beach, enjoyed the playground and other beach games (basketball, beach-volley, beach soccer…) and went exploring lake Simcoe on a canoe. Parking is free for the day. For a day visit: you’ll enjoy the location, a good hour drive north of the GTA, beautiful marina with path in the nature preserve, golf course, restaurants and recreational centre. Most of the activities are available but come with a fee. Check the website or contact the welcome center for more details. For a rental: will usually provide you with more access to the facilities, to check with your landlord. Some pros: amazing fireworks, several good restaurants more on the fine dining side, recreational rentals (bikes, kayaks, canoes, cross country skiiing, snowshoes, skates…), amazing views on lake Simcoe, a vibrant harbour with live music on weekends, golf course Some cons: not everything is available to everyone (you cannot just walk to the pool and expect a seat, you might have to pay for it, book a seat, etc.), due to its success it can be busy on weekends so book your table in advance, off season it can be very quiet

Rude staff, a girl named Anna , a manger at the pool, ruined my bachelorette party, we paid $300 to be there, and we’re treated incredibly rude. Never going back there. It was unpleasant and a waste of money… yuppy energy, over priced food, unpleasant people. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Honestly this place suck big time . Nothing for anyone to do . They call it a 365 all year resort but no where close to even a one day resort . Cant imagine the town of innisfil allow for the developers to keep building and selling at this location but failed to realize that the 365 all year resort does not have anything for even a day How can city officials allow for this to happen . Maybe they just dont know what a resort also looks like. Foods are extremely expensive the resort is likely one of the worst all you do is pay pay pay $ a money grabber establishment where there are no amenities or activities for anyone to do including owners never mind they visitors have to pay huge $$ to go to even the pool Go elsewhere this is not the place they call the lake where is only a small piece of water is where you have the lake to swim if need be . i am so sorry for all the owners of this resort. Save your $$ and go to florida where there is better for your $$ DEFINATELY NEVER GOING BACK HERE OR RECOMMEND TO FRIENDS Looks more like a sunday harbour or a sinking ship

Pleasant lunch. We sometimes grab lunch at Friday Harbour after walking the nearby nature trails. It’s a busy place, especially summer, holidays and weekends. Several dining options. Recommend reservations or be prepared to wait. Lots of parking but not paved.
