Our Story
Meet Eleanore and Randy
Aaron’s on the Lake Bed & Breakfast is a dream come true for your hosts Eleanore and Randy McMahon.
It all started when they were backpacking as a young couple through Europe in 1989. Each time they’d stay at a new bed and breakfast, they’d imagine what it would be like to be the owners. They dreamed of buying property in Gimmelwald, Switzerland, but at the ages of 27 and 29 ultimately decided they would have a more secure life in Canada.
Twenty-eight years and three kids later, Eleanore and Randy’s dream of owning a bed and breakfast has come true!
- My wife and I decided went there to celebrate our 10 years anniversary, this was the best time we had in a long time. We met such a lovely couple, Eleanor and Randy, who runs this place and they made us the best celebration possible. From a quiet room with a beautiful room, a large hot tub where you can look at the endless sea at day and the stars at night, and meals cooked by Eleanor herself that are way beyond 5 stars hotels. We also went to the gazebo for a fondue desert. Everything was already taken care of. All in all, we were speechless with our experience and would like to wholeheartedly recommend Aaron's on the lake ❤️read moreread lessTamir Tarom4/15/2024We’d highly recommend this Lake Winnipeg gem.
Eleanore and Randy are wonderful hosts, anticipating our every need. Our Lakeview Room was lovely; the breakfasts were elegant and delicious; and you just can’t beat relaxing in a hot tub under the stars on a cold Manitoba winter night. We felt truly pampered.
We’re looking forward to visiting again … and again …read moreread lessRox Bee3/19/2024 - Wonderful! Eleanore and Randy were lovely hosts. We felt very well looked after. There was a Blizzard the second night of our stay but we were warm and cozy inside our well appointed room. Everything was taken care of! Can’t wait to come back during the summer. Highly recommend.read moreread lessScoopa163/16/2024Lake Winnipeg Gem We’d highly recommend this Lake Winnipeg gem. Eleanore and Randy are wonderful hosts, anticipating our every need.

- This little gem was the perfect weekend getaway for my sister and I. Eleanore and her sister were the most amazing hosts and we couldn’t have had a better time. The breakfast was TO DIE for and the conversation was lovely. This is a little slice of serenity so close to the city! Eleanore was attentive, kind, and so thoughtful with every little touch throughout our stay. Definitely check out their website for more details!read moreread lessMegan2/19/2024
- Wonderful Winter Weekend Getaway If you have not been to this cozy location yet, you have to add it to your list of Manitoba gems to visit and stay. My husband and I came for our anniversary, and it was perfect. From the little touches in our room, to the private dinner with music and candlelight, it was the perfect romantic getaway. We upgraded to a full package with charcuterie, fondue and dinner, with flowers and champagne and it was amazing. Randy and Eleanore are amazing cooks, and the food is made with love and care. For the regular package the breakfasts are unique and delicious. You feel like you are eating at a five star restaurant. And you can't beat the view from the rooms and the hot tub of the lake, even in the wintertime. It was so peaceful and relaxing. It was great getting to know our hosts and we will definitely be back.read moreread lessRobyn22772/01/2024
