Clean room and great staff service! The property definitely has a rustic feel and some aspects of the room felt a bit older or outdated, however, it is clear they put a lot of effort into cleaning the space! The only downside of the room was the beds weren't the comfiest. It was a great stay overall for the few nights I was there!

Shopping close by in Bancroft, picked up a few groceries at Foodland for later, had a good lunch at La Fiesta Mexican restaurant, bought a few items at Old Tin Roof store, & Stedman's, pretty convenient I thought, no tourists around it seemed being October and all. Restaurant at Somerset was good, food good, had homemade lasagna, Bancroft Brewery beer, salad and desert was this great apple crumble in a sizzling iron skillet topped with ice cream and caramel, HUGE serving, that was an awesome desert ! Breakfast was buffet with a variety of items, quiche squares and tarts, were great.

This is a wonderful, comforting property that is set on a beautiful lake. Every time I stay here, I meet international travelers. Everyone is friendly and there is always a fire going down by the dock, and you can relax in the adirondack chairs and enjoy a drink. A great place to stargaze at night.

The fated long distance motel encounter.

This past month there was a power outage that lasted several days and we just needed a night of heat, electricity and Internet. We accidentally clicked on this place when I thought we were making a reservation somewhere else and boy was that the best mistake I ever made. We had a late check-in, but everything went smoothly. The room was clean, warm and beautiful. It was nice to stay a place as fancy on the off-season.

Very friendly staff. Quaint cottage rooms where its quiet. and nice modern rooms in the main hotel; whatever you prefer. The restaurant had homemade meals and they are fantastic. There is a large firepit lit in the evenings by the dock with plenty of comfortable seating in Adirondack chairs. The cottage room bathroom had big cobwebs in the ceiling corners and the light, and a couple spiders. The sink was all cracked, and a chip in tub. Otherwise, it was very clean anc comfortable. Have stayed here twice and will be back again. Definitely recommend!

Disappointed

Upon arrival, I was informed that the restaurant was closed for renovations, so we had to drive into town for dinner. The satellite channels were not working, and when I called and left a voicemail for the number at the front desk, I didn’t receive a response. It was too cold to sit outside, so without TV, it made for a boring night. The coffee maker is kept in a common area, and in the morning (around 8:30), I found that there wasn’t enough coffee or cream, and I couldn’t find anyone to ask for assistance. As a result, we decided to leave early and shower at home, because to get coffee, we had to drive to Tim Hortons in Bancroft (the opposite direction from our house). We had stayed here in the past and previously enjoyed our time, as it’s a beautiful spot and very clean. However, this time it was quite disappointing not having TV and morning coffee, given the amount we paid.

Our room was beautifully appointed & the bed was comfortable. Our hosts were friendly & helpful. Great location after our snowshoe day at Silent Lake. I would suggest there be another wastebasket & another mirror, besides the ones in the bathroom. Somerset Lakeside Resort is in a stunning location. I look forward to visiting again.
