  • Great New Years Eve!
    We regularly stay at Canary Beach in the summer but this is the first time we have stayed in the winter and we loved it! We came with our family of five and another family and rented 2 adjoining two-bedroom cabins with a doorway in the middle. This worked out great and the kids had fun going back and forth between the cabins. We brought snowmobiles and the kids had a blast riding around the lake and pulling each other on sleds. Super convenient as the cabins are right on the lake! Terry was a great host and even delivered butter to our cabin when we realized we forgot it. We had a great time and we definitely plan to be back in the winter.
    Hello! Thank you for the review! We are so happy you had a great time! As always, should you need anything, you butter believe we will get it! Terry

    Better than a hotel stay!!
    We had a need for overnight housing for 3 adults on a weekend when apparently hockey had overtaken the Alexandria area. No hotels had vacancies. The chamber of commerce suggested a list of other possibilities. I left a voicemail at the number of this resort, and owner Terry returned my call in a timely manner. He was pleasant and accommodating and our housing dilemma was solved. Our 24-hour stay in one of his cabins was delightful, providing us much more than a needed place to rest our heads. We left refreshed … and eager for another excuse to return!
    Rose, thank you for choosing Canary Beach Resort! We were more than happy to accommodate you. We realize you had a choice in stays and are so excited you chose us! Merry Christmas!

    New Owner is GREAT!!!!
    Terry the new owner is amazing. 10 of us girls went for a scrapbooking retreat. He helped us set up, even picked up Bread Bowls that we forgot for our soup when he was in town. Always asked if we needed anything when he went out. So very nice! We will definitely be back!
    Christi, you guys were great as well! I love interacting with my guests. Thank you for the kind words. We look forward to hosting you again! Merry Christmas!!!

We had a tremendous time. Location was beautiful and resort staff was amazingly helpfully. The outside gathering areas were so wonderful for children and adults to keep entertained. So many fun things to do and we made wonderful family memories. We will definitely come back.

We celebrated a 60th wedding anniversary in the event center for my parents. This is a great space for a small event. We had 20 adults and 12 children. We brought in our food and decorations. They had a fantastic sound system that we used with our Bluetooth and was able to have dinner music and dancing. Fun was had by all.

We had a great weekend at Canary Beach Resort this past weekend. Great accommodations, they provide most everything you need. The management was very accommodating to our needs. We’ve been coming here every winter for quite a few years and they have never disappointed us. Love making family memories there!!

Terry is a great host camp manager. He has gone above and beyond for my wife and I multiple times. Great resort, excellent location. The beach is clean and the water is warm. Also some great fishing for bass and pike. A great family resort.

I am enormously in love with this place! This is now our first choice as a vacation fave and we will definitely be going again for years to come. Just had a 2 night vacation with 4 people in a 2 bedroom cabin and we had an absolutely wonderful experience here! Amazing views of the sunrise and sunset on the lake from the cabin! Everything we needed for cooking and relaxing was there for us to enjoy! The beach is a natural charm and I wouldn't want to change a thing about it! The Manager and all of the staff go above and beyond my expectations for excellent service and kind, friendly interactions. Highly recommend for you and your loved ones! Such a great experience, I cannot emphasize that enough! ☺️
