Be careful! This motel isn’t in Manitoulin Island at all! The motel is 150km far away from the entrance of the Island. When I searched the hotel in Manitoulin Island, Expedia website recommended this Motel. It is a trap! Don’t trust the results about Manitoulin Island from Expedia.

Room was very hot! Window was open and air conditioner was iced over. We were given a different room and the remote didn't turn on the TV. The bedside lamp didn't work. There was a very strong smell everywhere of marijuana. We won't be back and wouldn't recommend it to anyone!

The room has a very strong musty moldy smell. Had to get order timber spray to help. The tv was plugged into the bathroom. So you could not shut the bathroom door to use the bathroom. Tape keeping the lamp shade together. Booked a pet friendly room and then was told at check in that I owed the pet fees as they were not included with the room cost, which was not clear at booking

Our booking at the Old Mill got cancelled and we ended up having to go to Spanish River Inn. Rather inconvenient though the staff were kind in making sure the reservation took place. It is a loud location right next to the Highway and the AC is even louder. Neceessary though to cool the hot room and drown out the road traffic.

Would never recommend and would love a refund. Disgusting is a mild term to use for this place. Booked a room for 2 adults since that is what was asked and we needed a room with 2 beds, then our 2 kids walk in and he charged us an extra $35! Same room, same beds, same lack of cleanliness with an upcharge because our kids were with us? We were asked for number of adults. Nasty shack across the road is where he recommended we eat-beyond gross. Thankful for a Tim Hortons nearby. That is the only perk to this area. Stay away!

It’s a trade off. You can’t beat the location, especially if you’re on the river side.Near the centre of town and looking onto the river with fabulous rushing waterfalls at your doorstep. There are even benches outside the room for morning breakfast beside the water. The room itself is basic but clean and well appointed. Good value for the price. Only complaint is how noisy the AC unit is and the rooms should have blackout curtains as the outside light is on all night. Otherwise with earplugs and face mask, we slept well in the comfortable beds.

Adequate

Room was clean. Fridge, microwave worked fine. A/C would have worked fine if we'd noticed we needed to turn it on. Room was tiny. No closet. Only place to put suitcase was on a suitcase stand, blocking the desk that had the fridge. Managed to balance other suitcase on the desk chair. Curtains didn't block light and there was a bright light in the parking lot that kept the room well lit all night. Fortunately we brought face masks, so managed to sleep. Our room faces parking lot, and we could back our car right up to the door. Was convenient for our 1 night. But there was no view of the river from our room like I had expected. I had thought I'd get both, but I guess they manage twice as many rooms but making them small, and facing only parking lot or water. So did the job, but was complicated to use.

A clean, no-frills hotel with great staff and an excellent view of the river. Pet-friendly, with nature walks next to the hotel, and close to very good Pizza. If you stay in Blind River, this is the place to go.
