First time staying- property was charming and room was clean. Had to wait a long while for someone to come to seat us for breakfast as help was in kitchen for about 7 or 8 mins ( a bell may be helpful).

10/10 Exceptional

Love it heree , home away from home. Sweet little getaway with an outdoor pool and access to the lake. I love the leisure of the jacuzzi in the room. It is so relaxing. Walk out pool side rooms- it’s one of the only places that has balcony’s. The staff are great and all very sweet, the food is quite expensive but also tasty. I have stayed in almost every room they have to offer and all of them are like no other hotel in hrm. Could use smart tvs or other entertainment of sorts. Very calm relaxed hotel.

This was a nice stay. Was expecting to dine there that eve but restaurant was closed. A little inconvenient in entering and leaving property due to heavy traffic. We missed the entrance on the first go by turning too soon then had to go back about 3 miles to get back on route. We missed breakfast menu at restaurant by a few minutes after 11 am so went up the road. Nice location near the lake shore. This hotel is reasonably priced with good value stay when booked way in advance.

A delightful overnight stay, from the genuinely warm welcome to the clean, spacious room featuring a jetted tub. The only thing I missed (as an older person) was a hand railing to help ease into and out of the pool! Breakfast in the the hotel restaurant is a must for the cheerful service and the best Eggs Benny ever (note: not open Mon & Tues.)

Room was great! Staff was amazing! Pool looked nice but was too chilly to use, but lounging around it was lovely. Only real “issue” was odd electrical plug placements. Great little plaza two minutes away with Timmie’s and Shoppers. Would definitely recommend.

Verified review

6/10 Good

The receptionist was friendly. The room was large but had too much furniture. The bathroom was ok but the shower was small and had would around the base of the door. The best thing about our room was the patio outside our rear door that allowed us to sit out there and relax. The worst thing about the room was the smell. It smelled very strongly of someone's dank basement. If you decide ti stay here, do not let them give everyone you a room downstairs.
