9/10 Wonderful! (413 reviews)
Staff was very nice and accommodating. Decent size parking lot. I was there for a wedding reception and stayed one night. The heater in the room wasn’t working so they brought up a nice portable heater that worked very well and kept the room toasty warm. I enjoyed staying at the Scotia Lodge.
