The Saucy Willow Inn and Cottages

My Wife and I had been invited to a reunion on nearby Balsam Lake and were happy to find a room available for three nights at the Saucy Willow Inn . Right off the bat on meeting the owner Stephanie we knew we had made a good pick. She welcomed us with a tour of the Inn and garden which fronts onto a beach and dock ideal for swimming on the Trent Canal system. Our room was very comfortable and had an excellent Air Conditioner which we appreciated as Coboconk was enduring plus 30 Celsius temperatures that day. The property was quiet and we had no noisy parties to contend with. The continental breakfast which went with our room was excellent. 5/5 for the overall experience. Thanks

We enjoyed our drive from Ottawa to the Kawartha Lake district. The roads were newly paved and the traffic in June was light. We drove to Kinmount for a 150th anniversary of Icelandic people arriving to settle in Canada. We stayed at the Saucy Willow Inn owned by David and Stephanie Jukes in Coboconk that evening. This home was luxurious and welcoming, with a beautiful view of the Gull River. We sat outdoors watching loons and boats go by and later enjoyed a warm fire sitting on Adirondic chairs on their spacious lawn. Our room was large and comfortable with a view and provided a balcony to have our dinner on or read. It was peaceful, welcoming and we enjoyed fresh scones from the oven for breakfast. Homemade jam, a smoothie and/or yogurt with fresh fruit was offered as well. We recommend this spot highly. Rilla and Peter Prince

A hidden gem in Coboconk! Fully restored and beautifully decorated. Located on the water, you’ll find a beach area and a separate area for paddle boats, kayaks, and canoes. The wood burning sauna is located where you can dip in and out of the lake. The breakfast was great! Especially the scones! Dave and Stephanie make you feel like family! Will be visiting again!

This is our second year that Stephanie and Dave have hosted our ladies weekend. Can't say enough about the beauty of the property, the hospitality of the owners and all the fun we have had. A definate place to stay right in the heart of Cobaconk.

This absolutely stunning riverside gem checked off all the boxes for our family of four! Extremely comfortable and beautifully decorated cottage, helpful and friendly owners, gorgeous location along the river, and easy walk to all you would need for a weekend or longer! High points for us were the super “hygge” sauna, kayaking time, and decompressing moments on the dock😎. Thank you Saucy Willow for creating such an oasis of fun and relaxation…we are all grateful to have found you.

From the pleasant greeting by the innkeeper Stephanie followed by delightful conversations with both her and Dave, to the beautifully decorated room and inn, to the perfect setting and finally to the the delicious breakfast, everything was perfect. The century old home has been totally renovated while keeping the charm...Beautiful Reno. Congrats.

Stephanie and Dave are wonderrful hosts who should be commended for turning a heritage inn into a truly magnificent B and B. Their attention to detail from their choice of antiques to their mouth watering freshly made scones for breakfast made our stay a special treat! We plan to return and recommend the Saucy Inn to our friends.
