Unfortunately...Beautiful place to see the work of Canadian artists. My family was visiting from the USA and very excited to explore the gallery and see the work of group of seven.Unfortunately, our visit was spoiled by a very rude staff as soon as we entered the gallery, my son, who is three, had a dinky car in his hand , and she created a story that this car would ruin these paintings. She commented that you know these paintings are very expensive in a very condescending and derogatory way, my kid was no where close to any paintings. My kid was quite upset after that and just wanted to leave. I did not understand the reason for the rudeness. I will not go back and will not recommend anyone. Gallery should welcome everyone or put a sign - adults only. Never visited any place in Canada where the staff is rude to kids. This was the first.

The grounds are tranquil and stunning. In the middle of nature, and then the Gallery! Excellent permanent exhibition, and the Maude Lewis exhibit was absolutely fantastic. Love this place.

Loved grounds especially beautiful place to walk. Shows were good too.very peaceful. Great Escape from city just 30 minutes away.

I hadn't been for many years but now it is one place I want to revisit all the time. They support a wider variety of current artists as well as the beautiful Group of Seven Collection. The boutique restaurant is fantastic. Service is professional. The food is top quality. The grounds are beautiful and we've had lovely picnics before we fell in love with the restaurant. Parking is easy but not free. I think that is wise as it supports the grounds and offers some security.
