Trailside Inn, Café & Adventures Review

The Trailside Inn is housed in a former grocery store converted into an inn, cafe, and outdoor adventure center. There's nothing fancy here, but the four simple rooms (each with a private bathroom) are comfortably furnished in funky-bright bedspreads, and have nice unexpected touches like telephones, televisions, radiant heat under the hardwood floors, Jacuzzis or cast-iron tubs, and air-conditioning (in two of the four units). The clientele consists primarily of bicyclists, who come here for proximity to the Confederation Trail, which runs right by the property. There's plenty of live local music in the informal cafe on the ground floor, which is open Friday through Sunday for dinner plus anytime there's a live performance. The menu's basic but homemade and good: soups, chowders, a smoked-salmon plate, salmon, scallops, a house chicken dish, and some rather sweet desserts including an ice cream-filled crepe.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
