The home itself is very clean and the hosts are quite likeable. The breakfast was delicious including home made bread and jam and lemon curd of all things! Potatoes, bacon, eggs - and great conversation with the hosts.

The owners are the nicest hosts you could ask for. We were last minute online bookers, so kinda popped in unexpectedly, but they welcomed us and quickly got our room ready for us. We sat and chit chatted for a bit upon arrival and discovered my husband went to school with some of their family. Our room was clean and comfortable. Drinks and snacks were provided in room as well as a small dining area across the hall which included a microwave, small fridge, and coffee pot. The bathroom clean and spacious. Breakfast was made shortly after we woke… homemade sourdough pancakes, fresh fruit and bacon with choice of drinks. We sat in the kitchen and talked with the owners while they prepared breakfast then the four of us sat for a family styled breakfast. Absolutely loved the feel of a family style breakfast and conversation. We will definitely stay again when in the area. Highly recommend the Sweetfern Inn. PS thank you for the recommendation of the Anderson and Girls Orchards. We loved it. Truly was not expecting the small zoo feel of it! We love visiting zoos and this was a fun addition to our anniversary weekend! ##### Lisa Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### B Dec 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I absolutely love this bed & breakfast. I cant say enough of the hosts, Barb, Bill, & Jerry! What a treat they are and I have found new friends! The house is immaculate and they let you have your private time, and they also welcome you for a nice conversation. I will definitely be back next time I am in Clare! ##### B Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deborah Jun 18, 2025 ##### Deborah Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Larry Sep 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Larry Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katie Aug 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Katie Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [St. Clair Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Huron-Hotels-The-St-Clair-Inn.h36685.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Sault Ste.
