Liked: Cleanliness
Nice view from room. Need to update chairs in room. Add more comfortable chairs and decorate, paint and just make it look more inviting. Paint was new but it needed to be scraped and repainted as it was lifting off. I know this sounds petty but it is such a nice place and just up grading would make a huge difference. Water bottles, things to do in area, just some interesting touches and this would be a five star.

Room was very clean and well laud out with terrific vuews of the lake. Bit of musty smell maybe because off season and the room had no temperature control, overall very satisfied. The lady that greeted us when we checked in was very friendly and the check in was very efficient.

Great home base for cycling the Simcoe Liop. Well maintained and very clean motel. Beautiful views and cozy campfire pit. We stayed in a junior suite, and the only improvement I could suggest would be a solid door on the washroom for a bit of added privacy:) but did not detract from our stay.
