| "Hello Gaye -
David and I had a great first anniversary day with you and George. We enjoyed
both of you very much. You have a comfortable," pull up a chair in
front of the fire and relax," kind of home. You are very lucky. We
have been telling every one about Woodland Springs B&B and the incredible
breakfast. We had mentioned to you about the relaxing way to eat cheese.
The spelling of the cheese is "Raclette" and can be found in the
German delis. If you have time, I would enjoy the recipe for the cheese
hors d'eouvres as well as the Apple Pan Dowdy. (You are such a great cook!)
David and I were impressed with the cooking class you have arranged as well
as dinner on the Saturday evening with Rory Golden. We are heading for Florida
and we were talking about taking the class when we return. Again, we had
a great time and thanks for the boat ride. Really made our day. Keep in
touch if you can. Take care of each other." Susan and David - Ireland, Barrie and Florida - October 2002
"We have travelled the world
but we have never had a breakfast menu like the one served at Woodland
Springs. The tastes, the variety, and excellent cooking made breakfast
a culinary delight. The scenery, setting and hospitality of George and
Gaye made our stay here a definite future topic of conversation among
friends. We return to the "big smoke " relaxed, refreshed and
full of clean air. THANK YOU" "This is just like a King's Garden!!!" Eric ........7 years old."We'll be back!" Carol and Pierre, Ottawa, July, 2002 "Dear Gaye and George - I
am sitting on your gazebo perch overlooking a glassy blue lake. The wind
is still and the loons quiet. What a sight. The moment is breathtaking.
We have been to many spots around the world but none are more welcoming
and warm than this! The food exotic; the scenery breathtaking and the
host and hostess friendly, helpful and caring. We will remember and savour
this moment until we return again in a couple of years."
"Dear Gaye and George, Thank
you for welcoming us so warmly into your country home B&B. The trip
here was lovely. The trip down memory lane was astonishing .After 20 years
who'd believe we'd meet again and be talking about Irving! I guess beauty,
art and poetry do bring the world together after all. If I get to work
on that book and need an escape from the city I know just who to call!
Thanks also for the exquisite breakfast, which was such a treat. Andrea
and I really enjoyed our experience. All the best." Just for fun ..... There was once
