It was exactly what i was expecting. It is a dated motel, but the price was right, and the location was excellent. The room was clean, the service was fantastic.

This is a 1950s era motel/hotel. It is clean and friendly, and the hosts are great. You can't get a better location near the beach in Sylvan Lake. The section I stayed in is of cedar log panabode construction, which I found pleasant. I was told it is scheduled to be replaced by a condo develpment next year. They are hoping the cedar logs will be for sale.

Great location opposite the beach is only positive. Unsleepable, ancient bed. Torn carpet. Tv in back of bed $169 bad joke. Look somewhere else

The Lodge is in an excellent location, right across the street from the beach. The owners are very friendly and helpful. It's an older motel and it's definitely a bit run down, but you can't beat the location.

The location is fantastic for sure. It needs a lot of updating & new & modern furniture, bedding, etc would help. The couple running the motel are fantastic & accomodating.
