Had to stay in Owen sound to visit a family member in the hospital. The room was clean the hallway carpet may have been a bit dated and worn but not a big deal. Pool was great and the breakfast was way better and more than we expected. There was a staff member in there constantly checking the food and cleanliness. Definitely recommend can't beat the price and convenience

42 concerts I've played at Elgin Lodge and always without exception the best audience a guy could ask for, revved-up by their fantastic Recreation Manager. 'Jimmy's Old Time Radio Show' (on YouTube)
