Cranberry Moon Inn B&B draws praise for its warm, hands-on hosts, walkable Bala location near the water and the Kee, modernized rooms with standout bathrooms, and thoughtful extras like kayaks, paddleboards, a hot tub, and relaxing outdoor spaces.
Most guests describe rooms as spotless and comfortable, with some enjoying water views. Some areas are still being renovated, which a few noticed. Breakfast is continental and generally well liked, though one review found it poor. This is a good fit for travellers seeking a personable inn base in Bala rather than a full-service hotel.

Hesitant to share! Kim and Doug are the best hosts ever. Beautiful property, close to everything. Lovely breakfast. Lots of games in the living room. We used the SUPS which was so relaxing. Really everything was perfect. We will return!

This is a wonderful B&B within walking distance of many shops and restaurants. Our room was spotlessly clean with a very comfortable bed and an extra-large luxury shower. Kim and Doug were awesome hosts, friendly and helpful. Free use of the kayaks and paddleboards was a nice extra. Breakfast is continental style with bottomless coffee and we enjoyed it on the large front porch-what a great way to start our day!

We had a fantastic stay on August 4th for one night. Doug and Kim were great hosts. Greeting us upon arrival and having our room ready. Great location, loved the water access right across the street and paddle boards for use. Breakfast was delicious the following morning. Comfortable bed and great ac unit in our room! We will return!

Really great experience. Rooms were very clean and the house that they are just finishing renovating is beautiful. I believe this was their second weekend open and they were doing everything to understand how to improve the experience, however I think they have nailed it already. Very friendly and lots of local knowledge. Walking distance to downtown Bala and The Kee. We didn't use the kayaks or paddle boards but they are a 30 second walk to a dock and boat launch. Thanks for a great experience and good luck as you build your business.

Just stayed the weekend for a couple shows at Kee, and it was a perfect spot! Short walk to Kee to Bala, boat launch and dock across the street with free SUP and kayaks included. A hot tub and large shared deck for relaxing. Well-appointed suites in very clean and modern condition. Free continental breakfast, and above all else, great service from the friendly inn owners. Thanks, Kim and Doug! See you again! Adam & Ashley

This place is a brand new gem. Beautiful, spotless room, most comfortable enormous bed, one of the best showers I’ve ever experienced. Kim and Doug are the charming hosts. We had a delightful chat with them over a great breakfast on their lovely patio with a view of the river. Bala is a short walk, including the amazing Kee to Bala venue, where we were watching the phenomenal Tiny Horse open for the glorious Glorious Sons. A trip to remember for all the right reasons.

The owner Kim and Doug have been extremely natural nice and helpful. They renovated their Bed and Breakfast to a super modern accommodation without compromising the feel of staying in a century home. When I say super modern, I refer to the bathrooms and the electrical. The choice of furniture and decor is very inviting and tastefully placed. Kim and Doug are still big time renovating and one of their next projects is the kitchen and I'm sure when done, will just look as beautiful as the rest of the place and replace the continental breakfast with a traditional breakfast. We'll be going back to stay there again and recommend this place highly.

Kim and Doug were great hosts, always making sure I had what I needed. Beautiful rooms in a relaxing atmosphere. Just what I needed for a couple days away. Also ten min walk from the Kee to Bala so nice and convenient.

Charming Inn in the heart of Bala. Located a block from the busy Main Street. Owners couldn’t of been more welcoming and friendly! We enjoyed fresh baked home made pumpkin tarts ….. very good! This Inn will be the reason I go back to Bala!

Hesitant to share! Kim and Doug are the best hosts ever. Beautiful property, close to everything. Lovely breakfast. Lots of games in the living room. We used the SUPS which was so relaxing. Really everything was perfect. We will return!

This is a wonderful B&B within walking distance of many shops and restaurants. Our room was spotlessly clean with a very comfortable bed and an extra-large luxury shower. Kim and Doug were awesome hosts, friendly and helpful. Free use of the kayaks and paddleboards was a nice extra. Breakfast is continental style with bottomless coffee and we enjoyed it on the large front porch-what a great way to start our day!

This place is a brand new gem. Beautiful, spotless room, most comfortable enormous bed, one of the best showers I’ve ever experienced. Kim and Doug are the charming hosts. We had a delightful chat with them over a great breakfast on their lovely patio with a view of the river. Bala is a short walk, including the amazing Kee to Bala venue, where we were watching the phenomenal Tiny Horse open for the glorious Glorious Sons. A trip to remember for all the right reasons.

Wonderful stay at Cranberry Moon Inn. The inn was located in walking distance to all the attractions in Bala. The breakfast was plentiful & the hosts were very attentive to our needs. We will definitely stay here again & I highly recommend booking here.

We had a fantastic stay on August 4th for one night. Doug and Kim were great hosts. Greeting us upon arrival and having our room ready. Great location, loved the water access right across the street and paddle boards for use. Breakfast was delicious the following morning. Comfortable bed and great ac unit in our room! We will return!

Just stayed the weekend for a couple shows at Kee, and it was a perfect spot! Short walk to Kee to Bala, boat launch and dock across the street with free SUP and kayaks included. A hot tub and large shared deck for relaxing. Well-appointed suites in very clean and modern condition. Free continental breakfast, and above all else, great service from the friendly inn owners. Thanks, Kim and Doug! See you again! Adam & Ashley

Our stay was amazing for a weekend getaway. The property is perfectly located to enjoy all Bala has to offer. The inn is lovely, beautifully decorated and the rooms are spacious and well appointed. Having a fridge in your room is a nice addition. Kim and Doug are great hosts, we really enjoyed our porch chats. Thanks for a great visit.
