Great place, quiet even with 10 hockey teams on the same weekend. Nice staff, friendly. Very clean rooms. Also great place for Snowmobiling, parkings plenty and snowmobile trail starts directly in front.

The only downside to this hotel is the other guests. One let their dog poop on the floor in the hallway. The staff cleaned it up right away and apologized. The pool, spa, gym and restaurant are all great. Not too fancy just fun and clean.
