Visiting Pointe au Baril

Any good (= decent, clean and fairly priced) hotels or B&B's in Pointe au Baril, Ontario CA? If you know of a good place where a lonely traveller might find a meal, it 'd be appreciated too.
Response by poster: I guess so, yes: do you know anything there?

The last (and only) time I visited Point au Baril, maybe a decade ago, it didn't seem like the kind of place that would be likely to have more than one hotel.
I do remember a B&B (or something) that was right next to the marina at Bayfield Inslet that looked okay. The people there were very friendly.

The other major group of B&B's in Ontario, beyond randomstriker's link above is the Federation of Ontario B&Bs. They use the same region system as the B&B Canada listings. I don't see anything specific for Perry Sound in the FOBBA listing, but you might find something in the Haliburton Highlands that's close by.
The other thing to do is to phone the local chamber of commerce or tourist info. For Point au Baril, that would be here. These little towns aren't always fully on the web, so it's often best to simply call them.
Also, clicking through the chamber of commerce website, I found the "Eye of the Eagle Retreat" listed. You might give them a call too.

That "Eye of the Eagle" looks like it might be the place I was thinking of. Most of the others you'll find on the web will be far outside the town, I would guess. Though if Parry Sound is close enough, I suppose that wouldn't matter.

That's weird. But it looks like they mostly just cover the southern part of Southern Ontario. Parry Sound is a pretty big city, relatively.
