A weekend on Scugog Island? Tell our desk your dates; we check the room and the rate and write back.

Our booking desk reads every request, checks your dates and the rate with the hotel's reservations team or a booking partner, and answers by email. We never ask for a card here, and sending this books nothing. If a request sent here turns into a confirmed stay, the hotel or the booking partner that completes it pays us a commission; your rate is the same either way. Our commercial model.
