Gloucester
Pool is the last stretch of water on the historic Trent-Severn
Waterway before it empties into Georgian Bay. Boasting
numerous islands and bays, this large inlet is a favourite
retreat for cottagers and boaters. And it’s this picturesque
body of water that the Inn at Christie’s Mill overlooks.
A
four-season resort located in Port Severn, the Inn offers some
of its best views of the northern Muskoka lakes from each of
its two dining rooms. Enjoy the seasons’ ever changing shows
– fall’s spectacular colours, a snowy winter scene,
spring’s green-up or a summer sunset–- while feasting on a
delicious meal of Georgian Bay lake trout or other specially
prepared dish.
Chef
du Cuisine Dave Onciul prepares traditional Canadian dishes
with a local emphasis. Try the escargots, (served with leeks,
garlic and fresh herbs wrapped in phyllo pastry) and the Sautéed
Medallions of Pork Tenderloin along with your Grilled
Lake Trout. Or savour the Georgian Bay
pickerel, served alongside regionally grown fruits and
vegetables. Favourite desserts include raspberry or chocolate
cheesecake. And don’t forget to try a vintage wine from the
cellar. Each week features a different quality wine, not
available through the LCBO.
On
weekends, try Christie’s Grill BBQ on Friday nights and
their Prime Ribs on Saturday nights.
In
the summertime the Inn at Christie’s Mill has their Dock
& Dine, which is popular with boaters. Just tie up your
boat at the Inn’s new docks and come in for a meal –
breakfast, lunch or dinner. Boaters take note. The Inn at
Christie’s Mill is located at Lock 45 on Gloucester Pool.
Reservations are
suggested, whether you are coming to dine or for an overnight
or extended stay.
