So, initially our reservation wasn't found even though I had more than one proof of confirmation, I wish we had just left like i wanted to do. I'm actually surprised that Expedia would list this property. The room we booked, standard, was unavailable so we would have to "upgrade" (laughable) to the 2 bed room at higher price. There should be no charge for this room, we should've been paid to stay there. I read reviews that date back 10 years for this property, our room didn't appear to have even been attempted to be cleaned and definitely not upgraded since. I wanted to leave but we had been on the road, motorcycle trip, since early morning and hubby was tired. Well, even more tired because not much sleep was had. The bed looked used, or at least laid upon, so we "slept" on top and used the bed end runner to cover our feet. I have no idea what rooms others are rating 4 or 5 stars judging by ours. Forget the kitchen because just walking in the room, you won't use it, and it's not clean or stocked. I hate to leave a negative review, but honestly had the room at least been visibly clean or even attempted the outdatedness could be kind of acceptable. It is right on the water though lol.

AVOID!!! The room REEKED of smoke, the sheets and towels were covered in huge stains. The bathroom has dozens of ants. The tub was surrounded by black mold. Garbage under the bed. There were animals scratching very loudly in the walls. I stayed an hour, and owner refused a full refund because he claimed the bed was used. I pulled the sheets to inspect it after seeing how disgusting everything else was! He fully charged me over $150 for an hour in hell. This place should not even be legal by health standards.

This place was filthy and moldy, you could smell it when you first walk in. Refunds are not possible to renter beware. Had a kitchenette, with nothing to cook with or eat with. The beds felt like something was crawling all over my skin, hopefully there were not bed bugs. Blood stains on the box spring didn't give me a welcoming feeling. The caulked over the mold in the bathroom, Mike Holmes would lose his mind inspecting this place.

Staff were extremely kind and friendly. Easy check-in and check-out process. Rooms definitely need an upgrade and deep clean (i.e., dusting, mopping floors, scrubbing tub/shower). Beds were comfortable, but sheets and towels were covered with stains. Thankfully there were no bed bugs.

Absolutely disgusting place to stay. Especially for the outragous price of $155 a night. The most it should be is $30 a night. Office staff was friendly but the room was falling apart. Paint peeling off walls, dangerous light fixtures, damaged walls, filthy microwave, shower faucet falling off. Property itself seemed nice enough but we didn't want to hang around longer than necessary to walk around. Pay a few bucks more and go to a better place.

This property, on the Lake, has a large, tranquil oasis at the back of its property and is conveniently located between Belleville and Trenton. Good for wine tours, fishing. sight seeing whilst also being the perfect spot to "get away from it all". The room was very clean and functional...even had a modest kitchenette. Service was excellent. I look forward to returning many times.

The owner was generous in allowing my partner and I to check in 90 minutes early. The owner was always receptive to questions and I felt that the property, and my room were very clean. I recommend this motel if you are looking for a budget option in Prince Edward County.

The rooms look NOTHING like the photo supplied. They are run down with holes in the walls. Clean but the bare minimum. As where bathroom amenities like soap and shampoo. The Price too was misleading. The price on the website is only to hold the reservation. Once you check in the price goes up by 20$$$. It met my need for a one night stay but I would NOT recommend this place.

It was dirty the trash cans ,had a grocery bag it . When I moved the bag , there was stuff on the bottom ...it hadn't been wash out in for ever gross. very few out outlets in room had to pull out microwave stand to use outlet . No hot water , the worst thing was a water line that feed inside the unit over the bath room sink .. right over the wiring for the light for the vanity , so a water line inch's from wires that were mired off / and no hot water .
