Recommended Stay
My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights as a getaway to go visit the 1000 islands. The room was very clean, the owner of the motel was very friendly and helped us with all the questions we had, as it was our first time there. Owner lit a fire every night for the guests, and a very nice location. We will definitely be back.

Such a pleasure to stay there.
Very charming and set on beautiful grounds. The accomodations are very cozy and clean. This is my second time having the pleasure of staying there. I love the no frills simplicity. Just a short drive to the absolutely exquisite village of Clayton. Love it! Will definitely stay there again.

8/10 Very good

Very cute, quaint motel with cabins. The motel was was incredibly well maintained and immaculate. But it is a bit dated and a comfier bed would have been appreciated. Views were fantastic and the owners are amazing! Would have loved to sit outside the room and have a cup of coffee, but the neighbors used it as a smoking space. Yuck.

4/10 Fair

It is what it is
The decore was drab. A definite mold/ must smell but lightened with window and door open. My wife noticed old perfume smell that came and went but not saying it was para-normal. The owmer was very nice and gracious. We had spent the last 5 nites in luxury hotels, so rustic old apartment is what it is!

The staff is exceptional in addressing every need. The accommodations are not fancy, but the beds were comfortable and the setting along the St. Lawrence River is lovely. It is a clean, comfortable unit and has everything you need for a restful place to stay.

6/10 Good

Very nice option
We definitely enjoyed our stay at this Motel. Given availability when we booked, we were were in the 1st room near the road. The room needed airing out, which we did. Next time I would pick a room number 6+ or one of the cabins to reduce the road noise. The service was great. We loved the coffee and tea common area.
