I have been visiting this resort for years, and it's great to see that recent renovations have brought back the charm it had lost. The location is perfect for Nordic skiing and is close to other fun activities. The amenities, especially the pool area, are fantastic for families. However, we did encounter some noise from hockey teams taking over the pool during our stay, which was a bit distracting.
Rooms

The location is excellent, being very close to Barrie and great skiing destinations. It's remote but still convenient for shopping and dining.

I had a delightful stay at this resort, which is beautifully maintained with lovely grounds. The amenities are fantastic, especially the clubhouses and fire pit areas, perfect for relaxation. While the unit could use some updates, it was clean and spacious. The staff was incredibly responsive to our needs. Dining options in the area are decent but somewhat limited. Overall, it feels like a hidden gem close to nature and attractions like Toronto and Niagara Falls.

My stay at Carriage Hills/Ridge had its ups and downs. The check-in experience was positive thanks to Marcy's helpfulness, but I did wish she smiled more. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but a bit dated and in need of more maintenance. Overall, I had a lovely vacation, but there are some areas that need improvement, especially regarding amenities and dining options.

Our stay at the resort had its ups and downs. While we found the area peaceful and the surrounding nature beautiful, our accommodation left much to be desired. The indoor pool was underwhelming, and the restriction from using the main pool was incredibly disappointing, especially for my son. The staff's refusal seemed quite unfair. However, we appreciated the cleanliness of our unit and the lovely setting. Overall, it wasn't the experience we hoped for.
Rooms

The unit we stayed in was generally clean but in desperate need of updating. The couch was uncomfortable, making it hard to relax after a long day.
