Wonderful

The motel has a great view across the lake to Kelly Mountain. We arrived early and the staff worked hard to accommodate us after having hosted a wedding the day before. Reesa and Gerti are wonderful hosts, kind and helpful.
Everything was great . I hate staying at places because the beds are usually like plywood.. what a comfortable bed we had in our room.. even nicer than my own. Was a great stay :) ❤️ would go back next time
Dated building with some updates. Clean and convenient from ferry for quick overnight. Bed super comfortable. Can hear neighbours as walls thin. However seems all settled early for road trips.

Great place for an overnight spot. Conveniently on the Trans Canada highway. Great views
Very welcoming for our two dogs, even giving suggestions for safe walking with them. Comfortable touches to room and very comfortable bed. Staff made us feel at home.

This motel was very pet friendly and the owners are wonderful. This is an older motel that could do with some fixing up but nothing horrible
Clean room, checking in was a bit of a pain. I wish there were more blankets so I didnt have to turn up the heat and the water was not warm enough. Couldnt really have hot bath or hot shower, it was only warm. Otherwise very cute and clean. A family could easily stay in this room.
