Decent cheap motel, and great location for a night of snowmobiling. Right next to OFSC trail. Also pet friendly which is very important to us! Staff were nice and accommodating. Pool and Sauna were nice. Hot tub not working. Rooms were a good size, beds comfortable. Not cleaned well though! Our room smelt like weed when we walked in, and as we looked around we saw little pieces of weed along the window sill and on the tables.... So clearly not being wiped down. Mold on the shower curtain and debris on the floor around the beds where they miss vacuuming. Overall good stay for the price, for a fairly low maintenance family!

Although the property and rooms are dated, they are clean and provide a functional experience via the bathroom, chairs to sit and read and TV plus having a fridge and microwave. And the outside and surrounding area is nice to walk around, especially down to the river. The continental breakfast was lovely with a good selection of items to choose from. And the desk receptionist was kind and helpful.

We have stayed here many times and have always a good experience. Staff are always nice and helpful. After a day out in the woods, we come back to our room, everything is replenished and clean and it’s great to go for a swim. Wish the hot tub worked and there was more selection for their breakfast

Everyone was super friendly and nice. The tv set up left something to be desired, and the internet and cell service in the area was a struggle but I was able to make it through.
