Owners are wonderful, very nice place to stay. The only faults we could find are that the bed (mattress) is worn out and sags very noticeably and there is no air conditioning

This place was the perfect spot for our family to spend the night. Sadly during a heat wave lack of AC meant we were sweating buckets. The staff helped point us to a nearby swimming spot and mechanic for our vehicle. Charming and clean.

The property was close to an attraction that I was going to and so was very convenient. The owner was outgoing and friendly. The property was very clean and the owner (relatively recent purchase) explained her plan for improvements. Stayed 2 nights. Would return

Owners were amazing. I was exhausted and had a boat behind and we hadn’t eaten. No one would deliver so the owners daughter offered to go get us food and deliver it. Simply amazing , even provided plates. Beautiful spot to rest and relax after a hard days drive.

We were greeted by the hotel staff with a big smile and she was very bubbly and friendly. We chatted about our home towns and she told us about great locations in the area for dinner. Checkin was really fast and easy. We got the key and made our was to our room. The rooms cleanliness was exceptional. There wasnt a spec of dust or piece of dirt to be found. The beds were very comfortable. I would 100% recommend this motel to anyone travelling through that area of the province and will stay there again myself if I find myself in the area.

The front staff member was super friendly and we had a fast check in experience. Room was clean. Bed wasn’t terribly comfortable and room was very warm at night. It would have been optimal to have sheers on the front window as it was on walkway and people were looking in before we closed curtains for night. We had the room next to the office so there were cars and people chatting until 10 pm.
