We rented a cabin last minute as we came across on a ferry. When we arrived, the cabin was ready, clean and really beautiful. The view was gorgeous from it as well! The washroom amenities were wonderful, I took note of the shampoo brand because we liked it so much. We are breakfast at the on site location and the food was delicious, generously portioned and the service was great! We could not be more pleased with our stay and hope to return.

basic stay

Lovely location & view, attentive staff, and complimentary kayaks were definite pluses. However, we didn’t feel this was value for money. Granted, it was a holiday weekend, but 500+ CAD for a hotel room (we stayed in an ocean view room) that, like other reviewers mentioned, is more like a motel than a resort, felt really steep.

Could use a spruce up…..

It is showing its age. We stayed in one of the tents near the end of the boardwalk. It’s a long walk with luggage and you need to carry it yourself. No assistance with the luggage. Not all the blinds worked properly, it was a tent so we could accept that. The used contacts on the bathroom floor and the mascara on the pillow case were harder to overlook. Thankfully it was a beautiful sunny day when we arrive so we could enjoy the views from our deck. Not worth the price tag for the tents but the location was spectacular.
