sir sam's inn

/DT05=Sir Sams Inn was once the Haliburton estate of Sir Samuel Hughes, the decorated government minister who led Canadas Military through the first world war.The 10-bedroom stone and timber mansion he built along Eagle Lakes shoreline uniquely combined his desire for civilized comforts with his respect for natures own bold architecture.That mutual respect continues today. While weve added 16 lakeside accommodations and the WaterSpa, a conference wing and many other amenities, nature remains the guest of honour.Sir Sams Inn, a couples resort and country inn, offers a variety of accommodations, all with a magnificent view over Eagle Lake. Many rooms feature walkout decks and patios as well as whirlpool baths and wood burning fireplaces.All are intimate and cosy with fresh duvets and complementing fine amenities./DT06=FROM TORONTO WEST* - Take Hwy.400 north to Hwy. 11.* - Drive North on Hwy. 11 (past Gravenhurst to Bracebridge) and exit Hwy. 118 East.* - Take Hwy. 118 East (approx. 1 hr) to Haliburton Lake Road.* - Turn left on Haliburton Lake Road to Sir Sams Road.* - Turn right on Sir Sams Rd.and follow the signs to the Inn.* - This route from Toronto is about 2 1/2 hours.FROM TORONTO EAST* - Hwy. 404 to Davis Dr. then east to Hwy. 48.* - Follow Hwy. 48 North and then turn Left on Hwy. 12 North.* - Turn Right on Hwy. 48, then turn North to Hwy. 35 at Coboconk.* - Through the town of Minden on Hwy. 35 North to Carnarvon.* - Turn right and take Hwy. 118 East to Haliburton Lake Road.* - Turn left on Haliburton Lake Road to Sir Sams Rd.* - Turn right on Sir Sams Rd. and follow the signs to the Inn.FROM OTTAWA* - From Ottawa follow Hwy.17 West until you reach Hwy. 132 (just north of Renfrew).* - Follow Hwy.132 through Renfrew and continue until it turns into Hwy. 41.* - When you reach Denbigh follow Hwy. 28 to Bancroft.* - From Bancroft follow Hwy. 118 (formerly Hwy. 121) to Haliburton.* - Through the set of lights in Haliburton following Hwy. 118 to Haliburton Lake Road.* - Turn right on Haliburton Lake Road to Sir Sams Road.* - Turn right on Sir Sams Rd. and continue until you reach the Inn.
