About Us
How it all started
Over sourdough cinnamon rolls and hot coffee, on a cold Muskoka day, sisters Cynthia and Julie decided it was time to transform a life-long dream into reality. Two Sisters Inn is the culmination of years of providing excellent customer experience in the corporate world. Now they have the honour of hosting guests in their Inn, where you can expect to sleep in luxury, relax in the garden and launch your daily adventures into Grey County and beyond.
Our Story
Yes, there really are two sisters behind Two Sisters Inn!
We are Cynthia and Julie, and from a young age we “played hotel” at our family farm, around our Great Grandfather’s desk. We were raised in Markdale and have a deep love for the community and the area, so when the opportunity came up to purchase a beautiful home here, we jumped at it.
We are both business professionals that bring a wide range of expertise to the Inn. We have a passion for service, and are on a mission to create an experience like no other. We’re bringing our childhood dreams into reality, and we can’t wait to welcome you to your perfect escape!
Our Inn
Our century home was built in the late 1800’s and has been a family home in the Markdale community for 4 generations. The Stable housed ponies, ridden by the previous owner.
Enter the home through the original front door, lovingly restored. Check in at the century old desk where Cynthia and Julie played hotel over 35 years ago.
Take the staircase up to the 2nd floor, past the original stained glass windows, painting colours on the stairs. At the top you will discover 2 suites, complete with ensuites, to relax, unwind and rejuvenate. Our Loft Suite is a magical place, offering a private escape with a King bed, ensuite bath and secluded balcony to enjoy your morning coffee or evening happy hour.
When you are ready to start the day, our favourite meal is included in your stay, offering both continental or hot breakfast options made from locally sourced, organic ingredients. Join us for breakfast in the Thibaudeau Room, complete with a fireplace, and comfy furnishings.
Sit out on our back verandah and sip a glass of wine, a cuppa tea or just ‘be’. There are no rules for your perfect escape!
Our Community
