Best pool area in Sault ste. Marie, however the indoor hot tub was closed both times we went last winter. The outdoor hot tub closes if it gets too cold out (ordinance issue). Pool is nice, sauna is classic. Hotel rooms nice and clean. Can't miss it coming from the USA. Lots of food options around.
