We are glad to share our insights on our stay at Killarney Mountain Lodge, which we deem one of the best places to stay in Killarney, Ontario.
When we were planning our last summer weekend getaway to Killarney, we considered several options for places to stay. We eventually decided to stay at Killarney Mountain Lodge, a rustic full-service resort and marina, close to the town center. Our story below discusses in more detail our stay in this resort.
The resort is nestled on Georgian Bay’s north shore and located at 3 Commissioner Street, only around 0.6 kilometers from the center of Killarney. It is a family-owned resort and prides itself on having a friendly ambiance and a provider of the high-end amenities for a refined Canadian wilderness lodge experience.
The video below provides a peek into the facilities and amenities available at Killarney Mountain Lodge.
The resort rests between the red granite shores of Georgian Bay and white quartzite hills and sparkling lakes of Killarney Provincial Park close by. Such a location provides unlimited opportunities for canoe, kayak, and sailboat on the one hand and hiking the trails in the spectacular scenic wilderness nearby.
Killarney Mountain Lodge is a perfect oasis for a nice getaway – thanks to excellent accommodation options, top-notch dining, outstanding amenities on top of the outdoor activities available.

The Lodge provides a full-service resort experience with flexible accommodation options and varied dining facilities and excellent amenities.
Below are the various accommodation choices available from the resort:
For our visit, we decided to book King View Suites at the Covered Portage. A couple of things to note is that the suites do not come with cable TV. But who needs it in such an idyllic place with so much to fill your day. Free wifi is not available in the rooms. It was a good thing we brought our pocket wifi.

As we shared in a related post, Killarney has magnificent landscapes and beautiful bodies of water, perfect for a host of activities. Some of these are:
Hiking
You can do this right from the resort. There is a moderate-difficulty Lighthouse Trail that begins on the east side of the entrance to the Killarney Mountain Lodge and takes approximately 2-3 hours to cover the 5 kilometers round trip. It will take you through a forest trail to the Killarney East Lighthouse that will provide you a fabulous view of Georgian Bay.
If you would rather skip the forest, a short drive can take you to the Killarney Provincial Park, where hiking trails for different skill levels are available for your choosing. During our last visit to Killarney, we did both, and we immensely enjoyed them.

Hello Aluko,
Thank you for your comments and insights. The Killarney we refer to in this post is located in Northern Ontario, Canada. It is indeed the namesake of that beautiful town in Ireland. Similar to its Irish sister, this Killarney offers as well breathtaking landscapes and a perfect destination for a weekend getaway from Toronto, Canada. Wish you will have the opportunity to swing by this place when it is again safe to travel.
The place looks absolutely fabulous and I’d love to go there. I also watched both of your videos about Killarney on your youtube channel, I love towers and lighthouses so it’s nice that there is a lighthouse there. Truly a lovely place, like a paradise. I just hope the accommodation is not too expensive if I go there with my spouse for a weekend. Thank you for sharing!
