A very unpleasant experience. After booking a queen room with private bath at Summer House Inn in July this year, and providing our credit card details to confirm it, we arrived late afternoon to be met by Joan and told she had let our room to a long term tenant. She had made no effort to book us in anywhere... more

Totally unreliable! NOTE: traveling with a child of 18 months. We booked one month before our arrival (August 18 to September 13). Joan, the owner, asked us a credit card to confirm our reservation. We have sent to Joan all the required informations (also the credit card number). At our arrival Joan wasn't at home. Over the phone she told... more

I stayed at the Summer House Inn for an extended period over the past year while working full-time and preparing for a new academic program.

I must say that the review written October 22nd 2007 was quite contrary to my experiences at the Summer House Inn at Kingston, Ontario. I have stayed at this B & B on a number of occasions, over the years, and in addition to its great location and general ambiance, I have always found that Joan Meany was willing to... more

To celebrate our first anniversary, Brenda & I decided to spend a weekend in historic Kingston, Ontario. After considerable searching, we chose the Summer House Inn as our accommodations during our stay. The B & B offered a very central location and seemed to be an ideal spot for a romantic getaway. When I reserved the room, I made it... more
