The place was very well presented, clean and spacious for our travel needs. The staff at the office were very friendly and efficient in their jobs. Overall, we had a really enjoyable stay at Mackenzie Motels and would be glad to recommend based on our stay.
Great find. Very clean and the electric fireplace was a nice feature. The outside deck was a perfect place to sit out and unwind.

This motel was amazing. It was spotless clean and had everything you needed. What was extra special was the little touches to make you feel at home, a warm blanket and little coffee pouches and treats on the bed. We would absolutely recommend this place to stay.
We loved our stay here, clean room and amenities. Warm welcome from the lovely owner, really appreciated the special touch you give to the place🌞It is close to everything in town, what more can one wish for? We totally recommend staying here
