Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I stayed here as a kid under the old owner and loved it. I went back to visit this past summer, it was under new management. The rooms were iffy in terms of cleanliness - no bugs, but definitely looks run down and not thoroughly cleaned (cobwebs in the corner with flies and spider in the web) The towels were ripped and thread bare. I was traveling with my mom and my kids and the new owner gave my mom a hard time asking for a 3rd towel (there was only 2 in the room) he rudely told her "there's only supposed to be 2 people in one room and that we should have 2 separate rooms and we'd have to pay extra" - which is ridiculous because none of this was mentioned when I booked through Expedia and we are traveling as a family! 2 rooms is ludicrous. The new owner also doesn't serve breakfast anymore in the restaurant. We were told "Go to Tim Hortons", which for small kids and a senior is not an acceptable alternative to a real breakfast - meaning we had to drive (with 2 kids and a pre-diabetic senior) an hour to Sault Ste Marie to eat breakfast. Oh and at 325am I had someone try to get into my room - they ended up realizing they had the wrong room, but it was terrifying none the less. Only plus side, nice sunset and the beach/water is still nice. However, I won't ever be going back.

Fantastic motel right on the beautiful lake with chairs and tables outside. The beds were so comfortable and there was an entire big bag of ice in the freezer. It was extremely quiet. The restaurant served many choices of food and was delicious. I highly recommend this beautiful setting. The owner was extremely nice

Upon check in the man at office charged me $20 for my wifes fully registered and papered service dog, i told him it was illegal to charge for a certified service dog and he said he didn't care, the lady chwcking behind me also spoke up and told the reception man it was not legal to charge for service animals, he again said he didn't care. We were tired from driving all day so i paid him and got our room. Besides that, the wifi didn't work, the room was dirty, the shower backed up with dirty water. We will never stay there again. Disgusting. Steve

The Lake Huron waterfront location is beautiful. However my room has an empty fitting on the wall where the smoke detector should be. This is disturbing.
