Joe Regnier Review of Footprints Resorts
TLDR version:
TLDR version:
Carefree, lots to do, gorgeous, fun and simple!

Ok the first part of my post was day one at the resort.
After spending 6 nights I feel I needed to write a more complete review.
Style:
My first impression when arriving at footprints was WOW! My fiancee and I were met by the hostess who was very friendly and informative. She gave us a tour of the resort and we were awestruck by how well designed the place is. It truly is gorgeous and so unique.
Finishing touches such as tiki huts, massive dock with Muskoka chairs, cottage cabins give it a very neat resort theme.
Everything you need:
While staying at the resort you are welcome to use all of the amenities including water sports, diving board, slide, fire pits, fireplace, hot tub, mountain bikes, ping pong, basketball, entertainment area, etc.
There is a full kitchen with commercial refrigerators to store your food. One indoor and one outdoor stove and tons of barbecues to make sure no one is ever waiting to cook.
The concept is a mix between camping, cottaging and hotel resort. You take care of yourself, clean up after you are done using stuff so the next people are able to use everything.
Make it your own:
My, now, wife and I held our wedding at the resort this week. We were looking for a very relaxed ceremony we could invite our closest, most favorite people in the world to come and enjoy a great time. The owners helped us accomplish an amazing vacation for all of our friends. They offered so much to make our wedding spectacular. From offering to provide decorations and accommodating by setting up areas for us. I could see how anyone looking to host a fancy ceremony would love this place. We graciously declined the suggestions because while people dressed up a little bit for the ceremony our goal was to be relaxed and keep it simple.
Mindset:
If you are looking for an upscale DIY vacation this place is just wicked. If you are looking to host a wedding getaway here I would strongly recommend it. If you are looking to get away for a few days or a week you will not get bored. If you like a laid back easy going atmosphere this is your spot.
The staff:
From the maintenance guy to the hostess to the owners and their family. Everyone was so positive and happy.
The vision they hold for the resort is so great. They are trying to find unique fun ways to appeal to their guests and it is definitely working.
I felt so inspired by the work that is going into this place. They were constantly making improvements and making sure every little detail was considered.
The guests:
We met so many awesome people this week. Everyone staying at the resort got to know each other and spent a lot of our time socializing as a large group. It was an absolute blast. Even the owners and their family were welcomed to join us when they had some spare time. Everyone got along so well.
Hopefully they will read the post and offer their thoughts as well so that others can find their way to this great place.
As well we are already making plans to celebrate our anniversary returning to the resort with friends. Hopefully we all meet again!
Thank you all for making our wedding resort vacation phenomenal!
