The motel has great decor and amenities. It’s also far enough away from the Grand Bend strip that’s it’s not too busy or loud. It is overpriced for a motel.

Awesome spot, very clean and very nice and has great amenities like pool, hot tub, beach volleyball, etc. Only complaint I would make is that they close pool, hot tub, fire pit at the back and backyard too early.

A new way of thinking about a motel, refreshingly modern, with great amenities, and super clean. The manager and young staff were very welcoming.
Merci!
