The room was clean and there was a deck to sit on overlooking the water. It's located right on the TCH so it is easily accessible. It's also only a minute from the start of the Cabot Trail if you're doing it clockwise and maybe 20 mins from the start if you go counter clockwise. All in all would stay there again.

Nice comfortable stay

The owner was very nice, the beds were comfortable. The shower was great. There was a fridge and a coffee maker in the room, but no microwave. The breakfast was OK. I wished the restaurant was open for lunch and dinner and some of the other restaurants nearby were closed.

Property is nice and clean with lake view. It also has a swimming pool and coin laundry. But no restaurant on property so you need to drive to Baddek for dinner but breakfast is included. Staff are great and helpful in all respect. Great value of money.

Everything is falling apart in this owner operated road side motel, not sure how it got a 3*** rating. Very shabby, small room size, water flow in the washroom was inconsistent. Breakfast and location is good (easy access to Cabot Trail), and the owner was trying their level best to improvise, but needs a lot more to bring it up to the standards.
