Beautiful view, laid back lake fun, we'll be back next year.
Ive stayed here before while visiting friends in Nanaimo. I love the fact that its pet friendly. The front desk staff are always friendly and helpful.
There is such a lovely view of the lake you feel like you're on vacation.
Spacious and clean, air conditioner worked great and kept the room cool on a very hot day. Dog treats at the front desk, refreshing fruit infused water , loved the access of the room from the parking lot which worked great for my dog. I would 100% stay here again next time I’m in Nanaimo!
