our room was on the 2nd floor and it seemed like we were in a treehouse. the outside stairs made clear sound inside our room. beds were clean and nice. floor could have used a vacuum. overall it was a nice stay.
Yard was messy no restaurant facilities need to go through bar to check in at tiny desk. check in staff was pleasant to deal with

The motel was dated but our room was renovated. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean on the surface. It could use some cleaning of the window and baseboards. The towels and linens were nice. Overall satisfactory.

Disliked: Amenities
No one was working upon check-in, the room was tidy and recently renovated with an old TV. There was no remote for the TV and no solution was provided for this. The Internet is far from high speed.
This is an older motel with refurbished suites. Spotlessly clean with gorgeous new bathrooms. If you are looking for hotel-like service like room service, this is not for you. The restaurant has great food, awesome staff. I found the room quite quiet even though the motel was full. It is centrally located with lots of home style food nearby. We went to the Bruce Mines Fall Fair and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was a great trip overall.
Dont be afraid of the outside...room was renovated & clean

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff was very friendly, check in was easy and room was very clean. Only issue we had was getting the tv to work. Turns out both the batteries for the remote and the remote itself were faulty; however the staff were very helpful and rectified the problem.
This motel is located in a quiet village. Nonetheless, it is located right by the marina and a two minute walk to a very splendid museum. At the museum staff give you an insightful tour, and near by are beautiful trails. We stayed two nights to decompress after a long journey. The owner is very nice and accommodated us with dogs, and was very reasonable. There are also a few lovely shops to meadier about if you would like to. We would stay again for an overnight before making the next leg to Thunder Bay from the London area again. Thank you!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
It was good and what we expected for a motor inn. Room amenities were fine - appreciated small fridge. Bed was comfortable but missing top sheet. No onsite breakfast but nearby Doris’s diner attached to gas station was a good hearty breakfast.
In the middle of being updated. Our suite was brand new and very nice. Comfortable beds. Great service. Good price. Also, rave to the Cosmos Pizza restaurant on site. Loved it and super convenient.
Clean room with friendly people at the motel and in the restaurant, as well as in the town. Nice to be on the lake. Especially travelling with two dogs who enjoyed the walks.
Property location was great, beautiful location and room that we were upgraded to was just renovated so it was beautiful. They owner very also very accommodating.

It's obvious that the owners don't care about this place just a little paint to cover the stains, new blankets that aren't full of holes and replacing the deteriorated lamp would help and not cost that much. This motel is in really bad shape for the price. The location is nice though
Not a great place. Curtains were literally moth eaten. Bathtub faucet was falling off. Bug droppings all around the windows. Renovations are clearly DIY with terrible fit and finish. Location is good and bed was very comfortable. Great pizza at the restaurant.
