10/10 Excellent
"Clean, recently renovated (or looks like anyways) beautiful and modern suite and property. The room had everything we needed. The location is great! The property having it's own dock right on the river is fabulous! Although we didn't use it, the firepit, bbq area and games room were a bonus! Great amenities! We would absolutely stay here again. 😊"

South Shore Motel

10/10 Excellent
"The South Shore is one of the nicest motels I have ever stayed in. Splendidly renovated. It is very quiet up on the hillside. Only a 3-4 block walk to dining and shopping. Big bonus, the Beaver Creek Trail begins literally feet away. It’s a wonderful 2 km walk through the forest. The only thing missing for me, at the motel, was an ice machine. Big thanks to the staff for our early checkin. It was very much appreciated!"
