We enjoyed wonderful hospitality, and great advice on what to see on Manitoulin Island. We will definitely stay there again if we are using the ferry from South Baymouth on Manitoulin Island.

This was an incredible experiene. The room was extremely clean. It was well laid out. Chris and his family were most gracious and helpful. Despite being full there was no sound transmission. The white fish in the restaurant is to die for. Ill figure out a way to make it back here.

This stay was exceptional. The hosts took such care for comfort in the room. I loved the aesthetic. The bed was the best I’ve had, not just in a motel, but in a stay. I was worried about the proximity to the highway (just for noise) but the new windows really masked the noise. I’m so pleased and will rave this motel. We had a couple of crummy stays along our route and the shower I had when we arrived here was so nice. We will be back!
