Great stay at a fantastic location for day trips.

It was a great place to stay on our 4-day trip to the Parrsboro area. The service and food were excellent and the owners made us feel very welcome. They have put a lot of effort into renovations and it shows. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

My nine year old daughter and I spent a three day weekend at The Sunshine Inn. Laura, the owner, was accommodating regarding our late check in allowing us the opportunity to attend a family function with the peace of mind that we would be able to access our room after hours that night. Laura made us feel at home throughout our three night stay. She adds little touches and we felt comfortable and relaxed for the entirety of our trip. The only thing I can say I was disappointed with was I accidentally booked the room for two adults, but there was a rate for children under 12. I spoke with Laura on the phone prior to our arrival and explained my mistake. She assured me she would make the adjustment to the booking prior to charging my credit card. However when we arrived (we were earlier than expected and the office was still open) I reminded Laura of our conversation re: adjustment. At this point Laura told me that the room was priced for two people, regardless of age and proceeded to charge me for two adults. My daughter is 9, she’s big for her age but I felt that the reason I was overcharged was due to an assumption or judgment that my daughter was older because of her physical size. My daughter is self conscious of her size and was impacted by this incident. I highly recommend The Sunshine Inn and can’t speak highly enough of the breakfast included which is not unlike what you would expect from a five star restaurant. Affordable and comfortable rooms and cabins.
