​Set on the shores of Otter Lake just outside Parry Sound, the Grand Tappattoo Resort is built to take advantage of the beautiful terrain that defines this part of Ontario.

Exposed granite, sparkling lake water and tall pine forest set the scene: this is Ontario’s lake country. Grand Tappatto Resort sits on 50 acres of natural birch and pine trees, with direct access to the clear waters of Otter Lake.

​Visitors have been flocking to the property since it opened in 1987, seeking relaxation and connection to nature. Guests enjoy hiking on the wooded trails, paddling the lake or just sitting and reading on their balconies.

With more than 50 hotel rooms, suites and fully equipped cottages, Grand Tappattoo Resort offers flexible stays, as well as onsite amenities such as indoor and outdoor saunas, an indoor heated pool, and a restaurant that serves culinary creations for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

​Those looking to explore the area will find that the resort is perfectly positioned to take in all that Parry Sound and the greater region have to offer, from hiking and cycling the many local routes, to day trips out to the town or the history village of Rosseau.

In the summer, the area is known for boating and fishing. In the winter, many come for cross country skiing and snowmobiling.
