The Kettle Creek Inn is a small port village of its own, comprised of the original 1848 home and two guest houses clustered around a central courtyard. The courtyard gardens have been orchestrated for scent, texture and colour and are a focal point for the inn from April to October. All rooms and suites have custom beds, fluffy duvets, cable television, radios, telephones, high speed wireless internet, coffee makers and fridges. Each room is named after an area artist and features his or her paintings or prints. The main inn has two suites and five guest rooms; one guest house has three rooms and two suites as well as a conference room. A smaller guest house has two rooms and the Designer Suite.
Dining is special at the inn. Outdoor dining amidst the fragrance and beauty of lush gardens takes place on a patio or under a gazebo. Indoors, dining has the ambience of a traditional country inn. In either location, the menu features meats and produce from local organic products from lamb to beef tenderloin, with an emphasis on "simple elegance". Since this is a fishing village, the menu always offers Lake Erie perch or pickerel, fresh from the harbour. If you are lucky during your stay, and bring in a fish from a charter fishing excursion, the chef is happy to prepare it for you.
