The sheets were filthy and when we asked to have them changed the staff came up with every excuse they could to not do the work. Staff needs training and an understanding of what is acceptable. One of the excuses was was “in India we don’t use whit sheets, they are dark, so people don’t know it is not clean and they just use them as they are”. Terrible! At least a dozen excuses before the sheets were changed heard by multiple people!

Very dirty!!!! We were really grossed out. Bathroom so dirty and toilet leaking. Floor sticky, stains on blankets. AC didn't work and major dust in the grill. Walls, baseboard heaters hadn't been wiped in a long time. Don't recommend this motel at all. Not worth the $140 we paid for one night.

rates were affordable for crew, bathrooms need badly redone, chipped, rusty, awful caulking, rusty heater, no plug for coffee machine, had to use hallway plug, bbq area is gross, moldy overfull garbage can, cigarette butts everywhere, bbq is totally rotten, gutters on facility need to be cleaned out, trees are growing in them, bedsheets and shower curtain had blood on them. hopefully they just took this motel over and try to start repairing and upgrading soon. too bad, location was nice, convenient, quiet. Almost too much for all....and they advertised breakfast, where there is none.

No longer our favorite stay….
I have been coming to Shelburne for over 30 yrs now, staying at Wildwood,Mackenzies or even the Cape Cod that is gone now, it has been a while since our last visit bc of covid, but I honestly didn’t think there would be anything to worry about, since Wildwood has always been a pleasant stay, clean rooms and nice little breakfast place in the mornings before we go off visiting. This visit we were shocked at the change, the rooms are digusting, I walked around the room with wipes on my feet to clean the floor, the towels are stained, when we asked for more since the room only had 2 and there were 4 of us, we were given more towels with stains. We were there for 3 nights, our room was never cleaned, or checked on even. The room that used to be where u could sit and have breakfast seems to be made into a storage or sleeping area for staff, the staff that seems to just hang out in the bbq area or around their sports cars in the parking lot. Sadly our tradition ends with this visit, we will now find another place to stay for our next visit from Ontario. The only positive I can say is the front desk staff was polite and friendly. It’s so sad to see what’s happened to the little family business in Shelburne

On arrival the motel looked ok,check in was easy. However we were then put in a room over the road,which definitely needs a facelift.Broken window, dirty floor,cobwebs on the lamps. Luckily the bed was comfortable.

This motel is showing its age.. We needed a place for only 1 night. The wifi was free but you have to sit outside the office. They allowed dogs so that is a plus. There are deer running through the yard and we were delighted to see them. The A/C worked - also a plus. The bathroom had no plugs but I stuck 2 poop bags in the holes and they made great plugs. Check in was not until 3 p.m. and after a long drive to get there we had to drive around for 2 hrs. It allowed me to go to Frenchy's and they also allowed dogs as it was a very hot day. I used my Expedia point for a discount and paid around 100.$ cdn. We will stay there again because it was clean and the price was right. My dog loved it there .

I booked a room for two nights with our high school softball team. The rooms were filthy, full of bugs, and the floors were covered in sand or something. The light in the bathroom didn’t work, the shower was full of spiders and the remotes for the tv had all the batteries exploded in them. We weren’t offered any new towels after the first night. With our group, everyone was charged a different rate. Mine was much higher than everyone. (317.40!!!!) Even higher than another family who paid 10 extra dollars a night for their dog to stay. I couldn’t ask about it because there was no one in the office when we checked out in the morning. There is no breakfast offered. The only positive was the gazebo, fire pit and bbq outside. I wouldn’t recommend anyone stay here.
