1000 Islands B&B – the Bulloch House

We had a really nice visit. The room was perfect and very comfortable. The host was very friendly and really enjoyed running a b&b. The breakfast was delicious and beautifully decorated. We would highly recommend The Bulloch House.

Just spent 3 nights at the Bulloch house. A very charming home, furnished in history with lovely antiques and stained glass throughout. We stayed in the Godfrey suite that we found spacious and comfortable and we enjoyed the balcony from our suite. Breakfast each morning was an event, an elegant dining room, a lavish presentation served with beautiful china and lovely decor. The food would rival any five star restaurant. Michele is the perfect hostess. The house could use a touch up here and there, but that did not detract from the overall charm. The location of the property was ideally situated for our visit to Gananoque. Thank you for a wonderful visit.

This is a difficult review to write because we’re acutely aware that the B&B is the owners business & livelihood - and we don’t want to jeopardise that. However, we have personally relied on review websites when booking accommodations therefore feel obliged to give our honest account for other travellers. So here goes…. The house is located in a lovely street very close to the harbour and town. On entering the house our first impressions were slightly concerning as it’s nothing like the bright, airy & clutter free rooms the photos depict on the websites. And on arrival, Michelle the owner was pleasant and helpful in nature. She took our tea / coffee / juice order for breakfast for our stay and she also asked if we had dietary restrictions - but there was no menu. She also helped us out greatly when we locked ourselves out of our car by giving us the use of her phone to call the recovery service and liaised on our behalf with the company - we bought her a bottle of wine as a thank you but had to leave it with her husband as she wasn’t available after our breakfast and checkout. Regrettably we feel we still have to deduct 2 stars though : One for the breakfast - it was poor quality and there was no choice, you have to have what Michelle gives you. Ten of us sat around a large table. Our first days breakfast consisted of a small smoothie shot, carton juice, few pieces of fruit, soaked oats & 3 half slices of soft ‘french toast’ with maple syrup and a pencil thin fatty sausage. Our second days breakfast was as above except we were given a dense egg soufflé with a small side of tomato relish instead of the ‘french toast’. And half of a croissant - never ever have we seen this before, we understand the importance of not having food waste but we weren’t offered any more or given any accompanying jams etc, it just felt economical & presumptuous that everyone likes egg soufflé as much as Michelle does? We realise its Michele’s B&B and she can serve what she likes but she charges a lot of money so has to accept that her guests around the table were not complimentary about the taste & lack of choice, one couple said they weren’t bothering to have breakfast the next day and preferred to get something on the road! We felt as a minimum just simple toast / croissant & egg, or fruit, yogurt & breakfast cereal should be on offer & it would be healthier. Michelle said the soaked oats given to us on both days was homemade but we still felt she should ask if it’s wanted or to our taste? Some people left it but they were too polite at the time to say anything or write reviews. In short our opinion is that breakfast should be more about the food & service and not the crockery sets and table settings. There were a few packaged biscuits and tea/coffee left on the first floor for people to help themselves but we didn’t. We have deducted another star for our room, yes the room was large, it had a balcony and loungers but we were in the area to explore and not relax

Had a fantastic stay at 1000 Islands B&B – The Bulloch House in Gananoque last weekend! The host was wonderful, and the breakfast was thoughtfully crafted with a delightful personal touch. Highly recommend! 🌟🍳✨

We had an excellent stay at the Bulloch House Bed and Breakfast! The rooms were big, beautiful, and full of charm. The entire house is steeped in history, and one of the most unique aspects is the antique store built right into the home. It’s filled with stunning, one-of-a-kind pieces—each with a story behind it. Michelle was a wonderful host. She took the time to explain the fascinating history of the house, as well as many of the art pieces and antiques throughout. Her passion and knowledge really brought everything to life. Breakfast was absolutely delightful—healthy, delicious, and more than enough to satisfy us. I highly recommend this gem of a place and will definitely be back!

The property is very cool. Loved the breakfast experience. We visited in January, would love to see it in the summer!
