Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We loved our stay and will be back! A quaint lodge with amazing staff, Natasha was wonderful and gave us a restaurant recommendation to eat some delicious pasta- a local gem, but I’ll keep the secret! 😉 💕 we will be back in September! Also, they have an a jacuzzi and pool, and they are dog friendly! (We didn’t bring our dogs, but being dog friendly is a plus!)
The hotel is located in a great area. You can walk to several restaurants and coffee shops. The downtown area is also about a 15 minute walk away. The room was simple but very clean and it had a fire place and a balcony. The beds were comfortable. We were happy with our choice and would stay again.
The only negative is that breakfast options are very limited. We decided to eat out after seeing what they had.

It was an inexpensive place to stay for a long weekend. Very basic, and couldve been slighly cleaner. Hair found in bed, and lightbulbs burned out. TV wasnt working. However it was a quick getaway and we were not there to hang out in the motel! Friendly staff and felt pretty safe, secure and QUIET which is exactly what we look for in nature! Many great things in walking distance! Location cant be beat!

The cabin was nice and quiet. The microwave didn't work and the hot tub inside the room didn't work either.

The room was decent and the staff is spuper friendly, however the place needs maintenance. There are fuacets and rims with rust and the TV takes a while before going to the next selection. The tub is pealing and has a scratched old look.
The property was a complete nightmare. I ended up leaving at 11:00pm a few hours after i checked in because it was unbearably hot with not even a fan. The room was nasty dirty and full of ants everywhere. I drove home 3 hours at 11pm because it was not an acceptable room and I would like a full refund
The staff at the front desk were very friendly and accomodating, offering tips on local things to see and do. Was a bit disappointed that my room didnt have a hot tub, but it said that some rooms had them so it wasnt a guarantee. Its a cute basic motel with rooms thay are dated but charming. The sheets were pretty heavily stained. I could tell they jad been washed but that always puts a damper on things.

Room had lots of ants. Bed was uncomfortable. Moldy surfaces.
The room was terrible. The room also made me itch. I book today’s and could not stay the whole night the first day. I see they over chsrged me again. Checking with them for refund that they promised me. What a drag.
We had a couple of kinks, but I am confident that the Lodge's team (Phillipe was incredible) will have everything together for the upcoming holiday weekend! it is a fantastic location on the lake, the sunset was amazing and the team was very friendly.

Looked even better than the photos! Exciting proximity to the village, great hot tub setup. I hear the place is going to receive some amazing changes in the future and look forward to booking here again.
