I recently attended a wedding at the Domain of Killien and was very disappointed in the resort. The ceremony was originally to be performed by lake. Unfortunately, it rained the entire time we were there so the wedding had to be moved indoors to the Conference Centre. The staff did their best to accomodate the change of venue but it... more

The Domain of Killien was the perfect getaway for the mismatched pair that we are: a foodie and an outdoorsman. The food was delicious! We had a fabulous time using the trails and enjoying the coziness of our cabin. Thank-you for creating such a solace for the mind and soul. JK Jan.2009. more

My boyfriend and I have been visiting the Haliburton region for the past several years. We have driven past the Domain of Killien several times, but because of its high price, always chose to stay somewhere else. This past weekend we decided to treat ourselves to a one-night getaway. Our bill for the one night came to just over $... more

Really, it sounds like you had problems before entering into the Highlands! We have nothing but the best to be said about The Domain of Killien. The staff are the most courteous that I have seen in a long long time, having travelled most of Europe. The food was exquisite! Did you try the crepes, brulee, or the mille feuille?... more

We stayed here for three nights in August, 2008, and it was truly terrible. We are not difficult to please and have never written a negative review before. We have written in some detail, but if you want a summary: DO NOT GO. First, to be fair, I must say that the staff were very friendly and helpful, and all... more

The view was nice as it was on a peacefull lake and the food was good (although could have had more selection). The cabin rooms could use a little upgrading. The carpet and couch looked very old and the cabins could be sealed better as to allow less bugs to enter. The housekeeping consisted of fixing the bed(although I don't... more

My wife and I spent three wonderful nights at the Domain. Our chalet by the lake was spacious, clean, well appointed but modest and private. There are other chalets close by but as they we behind ours and off a little ways to one side, all we saw from our front window was the lake. The description of the rural... more

Location and grounds are excellent. But the cuisine was not extraordinary at all. Quite bland...no sauces...desserts were disappointing to say the least. Rooms need to be upgraded for sure. Rustic doesn't mean old and worn. Our stay was a gift from our children for our 40th anniversary. Sad to say the $500 they paid for our 1night stay was very... more

We stayed at this private resort on Thanksgiving long weekend 2006. The hotel was nice (modest i.e. no jacuzzi, no spa services, basic shower), however all was in working order and very clean. The private 5,500 acre surroundings are very nice. We mountain biked for 10 hours and still didnt see everything. The food service, presentation and quality however are... more
