Location, location!!! The rooms are a cottage and very cosy. They are not big so storing suitcases out of the way is tricky. Easy stroll to the main shopping strip. The accessible walks/hikes from Settlers is insanely exciting. Thank you Karl for your kind hospitality!!!

Favourite accommodation!

Stayed total 9 nights over 2 stays and felt completely like a home from home. Very comfortable and cosy, easy walk into town or riverside walking & bike paths. Owners extremely helpful and personally manage the motel to a very high standard. Our favourite accommodation of our entire 6 week trip. Very highly recommended!
