Fabulous fun quaint motel, but bring 10$ in Canadian coins (loonies and toonies, not kidding) for meters from 10am-5pm. $8 for 4 hours if you can’t find side street free parking. Loved our room and Dockside restaurant.

Some of the property needs repair. The roof had tarps on it and it rained one night and it leaked into our room and at the back door . Very expensive for what you get.
