I cannot say enough good things about this place, the owner/manager was so welcoming and friendly… The rooms were comfortable, clean and quiet- I brought my dog along with me, every time any of the staff saw us outside together they always said hi to her- this place is absolutely wonderful, I would highly recommend it to anyone

The position of the property was excellent. Though the cabin itself was a little tired and dated, and could do with an air conditioner, the staff were super friendly. The owners have only had this location for a couple years, and are starting to work their way through the huge task of renovations. The location is absolutely fabulous, which is what sold this location for me in the first place. I am willing to put up with a dated cabin, and will be back time and time again, and look forward to the improvements as each year goes by. Owner has wood to sell, fire pits for every cabin/cottage, gas with the BBQ's, linens and towels and a well equipped kitchenette. Linens were freshly laundered, and staff were super helpful. Our stay was great, if you are looking for a stay that is a little different I would recommend it. The hire of the canoe was the highlight of our trip as we paddled over to the island yesterday, and sat at the fire last night, made the end of our trip just perfect. Thank you so much, see you in a couple weeks. psst if you are an early riser, don't tell everyone, however the Blue Heron is at the duck pond at sunrise, however we have to be super quiet and early to see it.

The owners are very attentive and are working hard to update this property. While the cabins are old there is a certain charm to their quirkiness. Our bed was very comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. While there is no air conditioning, the cool breezes from the lake cooled the cabin nicely each night and we slept well. The lake is warm and shallow, perfect for kids and adults alike and the small beach is private. The location is close to shopping, grocery stores, a farmers market, miniputt and a movie theatre. This was our second year here and we will go back again!

This is a no thrill “in-transit” motel needing some updating. I am not sure if I would want to stay more than a night there. Pros: The room is very clean. Bed was comfy. Reception person was polite and check in process was ok. The price is great. There is a small beach and canoe rentals on site if that’s your thing. (We did not use neither) Con: No blackout curtains - the parking lot is well lit and the room window faces the parking lot. We threw our towels over to cover some of the light coming in. There is a window curtain in the bathroom shower… I kept elbowing it when showering. No air conditioning (but it’s not too hot the night we stayed so it’s not a big deal). If you keep your window open it might be a bit loud as the motel is on a main road. Some of the furniture and room was dated / damaged. Overall it’s ok.

The bed was great - comfy and clean with enough pillows. There was significant water damage on the floor of the washroom and water on the floor near the bed. It needs a really good renovation. No air conditioning either, but it seemed okay as long as the fan was on and the window open. The shower head was held together with electrical tape and only shot a small stream of water out. No soap at all was present so we were not able to sanitize our hands.
