Gourmet Delights

“I was thoroughly impressed with the dining options at Sands on Golden Lake. Their Asian meets Local Ottawa Valley Pad Thai was a standout, featuring locally sourced vegetables and homemade peanut sauce. It’s refreshing to find a place committed to clean eating without cheap additives. The menu overall exceeded expectations and my taste buds were delighted!” view full review

The Sands offers a beautiful spot right on Golden Lake, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The views are stunning and the rooms are spacious and stylish. However, my recent experience during a wedding was marred by room assignments and long wait times at the restaurant. Overall, I would recommend it for its charm but suggest being specific about accommodations and dining times.

I had a fantastic time at the hotel, enjoying a spacious room with a great view of the lake. The staff were genuinely friendly, making my stay even more enjoyable. The restaurant offered delicious meals, and the beach was a real highlight. However, the exterior could use a bit of work, which was somewhat expected for northern Ontario.
