Wander the Resort - Bloomfield, Ontario

Eric C.

One of my Top 3 favorite places to visit / stay in Ontario. Wander is literally an oasis in an already picturesque PEC!

The staff are professional, accommodating and just overall nice and friendly.

The cabins are wonderful - clean, very cozy and well decorated. Bedrooms are comfortable, bathrooms are large and bright, and the kitchen has everything you need.

The food at Wander is always cooked perfectly. Everything we've had (both food and drinks) are flavorful, tasty and fresh using local ingredients. The chef is a gem!

The private outdoor gas firepits is the perfect place to sit and have a glass of wine after dinner.

We've made it a goal to try to visit twice a year!

Wander The Resort (& Spa) is truly a gem. From the moment I arrived, I felt an immediate sense of calm thanks to the stunning waterfront views and warm, welcoming staff. The Nordic spa experience was a highlight—each detail, from the soothing Aufguss sauna ritual to the plush robes and seamless locker system, made me feel luxuriously cared for. The space is airy, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully equipped, making it easy to slip into “vacation mode.” Whether you’re craving a romantic getaway, a fun escape with friends, or just some well-deserved solo R&R, Wander offers a perfect blend of tranquility and upscale comfort. Can’t wait to return!

Found Wander the Resort as we were searching for a quick weekend getaway for health and wellness. So glad we found this place. I can only sum up everything about this place in one word... quality. From the reception, to the restaurant, to the cabin, and finally the thermal spa experience. Great quality experience overall! We'll definitely be back.

The room is very modern and cozy, very worth to stay, must try the spa. Also the foods and drinks is beyond the level. One disadvantage is the room not clean enough, some of the area I found is dirty. The other one is the water leaking from the on top of the stove, but the staff very friendly and quickly fix it. All the staffs is nice and helpful.

We booked this resort for a two night getaway at the recommendation of a friend who said that it was amazing. They did not overstate their recommendation.||We had some special health needs which necessitated speaking to Fazeen at the main desk prior to booking our stay. Not only did he immediately agree to accommodating the needs, but he did so in a way that was exceedingly kind, caring and sensitive. I had the privilege of meeting him in person when we checked in. His kindness continued. Jane at the main desk was also very helpful when we arrived.||Our “cabin“ was gorgeous. Technically it is a cabin, but it is one that is designed with careful attention to detail and definitely not what one typically thinks of when you think of “cabin”. Please see the photos on their website to get a sense of how beautifully designed/appointed the cabins are. ||The bed was very comfortable, and the choice of pillows, linens and throws was perfect. The in-floor heating felt extra cosy under foot. The gas fireplace added a real sense of ambience. The cathedral ceiling with skylights made the cabin feel even larger and allowed for lots of sunlight. ||The appliances in the cabin were high-end. There was no microwave to quickly heat food. This very much reflected the theme of the resort that encourages guests to slow down and use the convection oven to prepare any meals that they may have brought. ||This was not a problem in the least. It was a reminder to stop rushing and savour the experience of meal preparation and meal sharing.||Even the dishes, pottery mugs, and serving pieces along with the cutlery were unique and added to the overall atmosphere. ||There was an outdoor gas fire that was lit by staff each evening. With the seating that surrounded the fireplace It would be a perfect setting for roasting marshmallows and creating s’mores.||There was no television, which was another reminder to disengage from busy lives and connect with one another. We spent time in conversation, reading, and playing games that we had brought from home as we knew this in advance. Having no television felt like one of the perks of the resort not a drawback.||One evening, we needed some mechanical assistance and maintenance staff Sawyer and Matt came to our rescue. Both young men were helpful, efficient and friendly. They solved our problem quickly and wished us a comfortable stay.||Both mornings we had breakfast in the dining room. Haley and Erika were our hostess and server. Like all of the other staff that we had met, they were personable, helpful and made us feel like we were special guests.||I ordered the classic breakfast. It was the best breakfast I have ever had anywhere. All aspects of the breakfast were perfectly prepared, beautifully seasoned and plated in a visually appealing way. The portions were large therefore, the breakfast was an excellent value.||We did not use any of the spa services, but saw the large outdoor multi section pool where other guests were lounging. It looked very appealing, especially to be open and of a comfortable temperature on March 18 and 19.||The property itself is beautiful with natural grasses, lovely views, including of the lake and comfortable areas for strolling on nearby nature trails.||For a truly relaxing getaway, this resort ticks all of the boxes that one would think of and an abundance of boxes that would never occur to guests in advance. The owners and staff just know what you need and provided it before you even know you needed it. I would strongly recommend staying at this resort.||Thank you to all of the staff who made our time away exceptional, and helped create memories that will be deeply cherished.

We stayed in the Aster cabin for an anniversary weekend away. The cabin was clean and cozy for the fall weather, fairly private, and was perfect for a relaxing weekend. We loved the in floor heating and that when it was cooler at night we could still watch the fire on the deck from the living area. There were also two outside fires lit every night, one by the pool and one by the water.

The front door of the club house was closed during our stay due to construction so people had to walk around back to go in through the restaurant. We felt like this created a bit more foot traffic past our cabin since we were closest to the restaurant. There is a sheer curtain that goes across the back glass, but I think if we could change one thing it would be to also have a real curtain for more privacy when we wanted.

The tea in the cabin is great, and we didn't do any cooking other than heating and cutting some snacks, but could tell if you wanted to cook the cabin was stocked with all the utensils, pans, etc you would need. The restaurant was not our preference but the location of the resort is between two small towns with lots of dining options, and as we'd planned to explore the area this didn't bother us. We did notice many others staying at the resort heading to the restaurant for multiple meals.

The only thing we did not get to do was take a canoe out on the water, we didn't see any out by the lake so assumed they'd been put away already for the winter. The weather was much warmer the weekend we were there so we do wish they'd brought a few back out.

If you are looking for a relaxing and quiet getaway in the County where so many things are taken care of for you, I would definitely recommend this resort. If we ever head back to the County we hope to stay again.

The resort really pays attention to the small details and they did not go unnoticed. The space is super cozy and staff are all excellent including everyone from the restaurant. We are already talking about our next trip back.

We came to Wander to celebrate a friend's 35th birthday after they rescheduled our original Saturday reservation to Sunday due to their error. We were promised 50% off admission and appetizers, plus a round of drinks — none of which were honored properly.

Staff were disorganized and rude, with one employee openly complaining about our group in front of other guests. The spa amenities were underwhelming (cold hot tub, lukewarm plunge), and the treatment rooms were awkwardly located beside the changing area. We were “shushed” aggressively, even though we were told treatments weren’t bookable that day.

Lunch service was chaotic — missing and incorrect orders, hairs in food, poor communication, and no acknowledgment of the discounts we were promised until the very end.

The experience felt like there was no management or oversight. As someone who’s worked in hospitality for 15+ years, this was embarrassing and unacceptable. Would not recommend until serious improvements are made.
