Last year we found the Breakers for a night's stay on our way to our cabin & fell in love! This now is our regular half way point break. We are hoping to make a week trip to The Breakers as well. Great beach, dog friendly staff & great dog friendly town! More

I picked Breakers after reading tripadvisor reviews, wanting a nice, quiet spot on Lake Ontario to get a head start on the drive from T.O. to Montreal. Unfortunately, for my husband, who has allergies to strong-smelling laundry detergent, the room just wasn't comfortable at all. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad in the summer or when the windows are open,... More

This was my second ``mini break`` at this lovely little hotel........an old friend and I took a little Grandma break, and enjoyed every minuteof it!! The room we had originally booked was next door to one that was being renovated, and the management was concerned that we might find it a little noisy, so upgraded us to one of the... More

A very quiet location right on Lake Ontario with a private beach. Easy walk to many good restaurants. Motel staff very friendly and rooms are fine. The setting is very relaxing and it is easy to spend time walking on the property or in the large waterfront park next door. Prices are competitive with the boring highway exit franchise inns. More

Stayed for 2 nights in room #2. The place looked a little sketchy from the outside but I've since decided it looks more rustic and cottage-like. The room was great. 2 beds a kitchenette, table and chairs, tv. The only complaints I have is the fan from the bathroom, it was pretty loud. Also the bathroom got super warm from... More

We spent one night at the Breakers with our infant and two dogs and Room #11 fit everyone perfectly! Our baby slept soundly in his pack n play in the first floor bedroom. (It was very spacious for the pack n play - no need to squeeze it into a corner.) The dogs slept soundly on a comfy dog blanket... More

I recently stayed at The Breakers for a week. Its a lovely place and the staff were very friendly and courteous. My room (#10) was great. Kitchen had everything I needed for coffee and a quick breakfast. Bed was comfy and the room had a beautiful gas fireplace. I am sure it is quite a different place in the summer... More

We were looking for a last minute getaway for the Feb long weekend and lucky for us The Breakers had a cancellation in one of their best rooms (#10). We snapped it up and were pleasantly surprised by the room's proximity and view of the beautiful Cobourg beach. The room had a double sided gas fireplace which heated the room... More

Breakers on the lake is the place I would recommend to anyone visiting Cobourg... Right on the shore of the lake, it is an amazing location, at any time! The people are so friendly. We loved it!! The rooms are nice and cosy. Chose one with a view on the lake, it's very nice! Also, they have some rooms with... More

We rented cottage #14 for a "girls weekend" in the late fall/winter. It was a beautiful and clean cottage. Close to the downtown shopping and park. Although it was winter I am sure it would be beautiful in the summer. The only warning I would have is that the ground floor bedroom in cottage #14 is close to a furnace... More
