Spent a great night there recently while we enjoyed Kinosoo Beach. Everything was wonderful, but I noticed the bed linens smelled "musty". Could just be a detergent issue or maybe a sensitive nose. Over-all excellent value.

We love this hotel and come almost every year for several nights. As a bigger family, we really appreciate the size of the rooms, the in room microwave/fridge/coffee maker and of course, the full breakfast each morning. Staff are always friendly and helpful and my kids look forward to this stay every year. See you next time!

This is our “go-to” hotel in Cold Lake! Beds are extremely comfortable, and the breakfast is fantastic. We also love how clean it always is, and enjoy using the pool and hot tub. The water pressure in our 2nd floor room shower was amazing as well.
