I booked the Old Mill Manor for myself and extended family for a wedding weekend. Julie was a wonderful hostess and the accommodations were lovely. Lilacs happened to be in bloom while we there and she had beautiful bouquets of lilacs which filled the place with their delightful aroma. We ended up ordering meals catered by Gary, prime rib, salmon, and stuffed squash. The meals were delicious and very generous.The bridal suite provided a beautiful setting for our bridal party getting ready pictures. I'd like to go again when we would have more time to enjoy all the various amenities.
This property was simply amazing. Everything about this house from the amazing pool area to the fishing in the river across the lane made this a very memorable and enjoyable family vacation. The house is beautiful and fully stored with everything we needed for our stay. The hosts were amazing, easily accessible to answer questions and help. The town of Almonte was also a great place to experience

Excellent! As beautiful as advertised and our hosts were wonderful, accommodating & accessable!
We enjoyed our brief stay immensely. The manor house was beautiful and is situated in a lovely setting. We were a group of 7 and used 5 of the rooms. Everyone enjoyed their rooms and had a great nights rest. Our hosts were very responsive, both before & after our arrival. Would definitely stay here again!

Thank you for staying with us, Joan. We hope you come back again! Cheers, Julie & Gary
Julie and Gary were wonderful hosts and made sure our family was comfortable and had everything we needed. The home is decorated beautifully and has much character and charm but still feels comfortable like home. The backyard tops it all off on a nice sunny day!
Beautiful home, great hosts, amazing Christmas here!
Beautiful home, so clean, very impressed overall. So magical for Christmas. Only downside was I did not realize the hosts live attached to the home (bedroom beside the hot tub), but they were absolutely wonderful and very kind.
Thank you for a great stay!

Hello Judy,
Sorry you had difficulty with the internet. We fixed it as soon as soon as you told us but it's very difficult to keep 10 people online. The pool was cloudy because it's been extremely cold & a salt water pool needs heat to chlorinate. We cleaned the pool constantly while you were here. The 4th bedroom is 2 twin beds instead of a 4th king bed. The twin beds can be pushed together. We have a great quality keyless door entry. You have to hit the lock/ unlock button in the middle after you put in the code.

About the host
Hosted by Gary Lamers & Julie Odin
In 2011 we sold everything we owned & purchased the manor. After 5 years of renovating, we welcomed our first guests. Prior to running the manor, Gary was the GM at the Keg & I was a full time realtor. Gary is now the cook & gardener & I help guests create a great vacation experience. We have 2 cats & live onsite in the nanny suite. In the winter, we travel south & stay in historic homes & hotels where we find design inspiration for the manor.
