The room I got was a bit older and could use a few updates, but everything felt generally clean, no unpleasant smells, just a little dust here and there. What really makes Sands on Golden Lake special is the view, absolutely magnificent in the early morning, and at night the sky is filled with stars and even a glimpse of the Milky Way since it’s tucked away in the quiet countryside. It’s a beautiful spot for anyone who wants to relax, disconnect, and enjoy nature’s beauty. ##### Kenan Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff Aug 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent!!!!!

You can sit outside your door and have an uninterrupted panoramic view of a big lake, which is spectacular at sunset and when the stars come out. Can’t wait to come back. ##### Emily Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon Aug 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities AMAZING!!! ##### Sharon Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian Jul 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Motorcycle stop over Staff were awesome, good breakfast burritos. Very nice beech ##### Brian Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda Sep 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We arrived after sunset and left around s foggy dawn, so we didn't get to see much of the lake view. But the room was very nice; wedstay there again. Our only disappointment was that breakfast wasn't available until 8, and we needed to be on the road before then. ##### Linda Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra Aug 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We only stayed for one night but it was perfect for what we needed.

Low pressure on the washroom taps and seemingly not a lot of hot water for a shower Exhaust fan in room needed some cleaning. ##### Brian Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Trevor Jul 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The room was very spacious and clean.
