Stayed an extra night as the accommodation was so comfortable and we'll presented. It is in a quiet road and handy to walk to town. The shower was the best we experienced during our three week trip and the bed was the most comfortable. Everyone was helpful and knowledgeable - it was almost a shame to move on! There is... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It is a lovely spacious unit. Very near the centre of all activities, yet extremely quiet. A very comfortable set-up with just one little omission - it would have felt a little more homely with a small lamp in the main room as well as the ceiling light, which was rather bright at night....

The Arran Motel is a very good motel just one block from the lake and the park visitor center and a few scenic blocks along the lake into the downtown area. There are several good restaurants, a bakery and a grocery store in the downtown area. This is the last place to fill up with gas if you are headed... More

We had a very comfortable stay. Our room was large with excellent kitchen facilities. The bathroom was well supplied with more than the usual accessories. Even though we had changed our booking Mary was exceedingly helpful and accommodating. She has great general knowledge and passion about her area. We enjoyed the activities that were booked for us.

Located in quieter area one street back from lake front. Couple of minutes walk via nearby footpath will take you to lake front and then a short walk along lakeside will lead to town centre with many restaurants. Large studio unit was clean and comfortable. Kitchenette facilities were adequate but no sink so it was necessary to use bathroom sink... More

Stayed 3 nights and were very happy. Good to be able to make our own breakfasts instead of eating out all the time. Very helpful and friendly owners providing lots of advice and help with tour bookings. Having free WiFi is much better than having to pay as at larger hotels. Good laundry and BBQ facilities. Tours all picked us... More

Not sure why we booked this place, but if we were just driving by it, I would not have stopped. The room was ok, clean, but the refrigerator was tiny and wouldn't hold much. No sink in the kitchen area, just in the bathroom. The rate was not that inexpensive. The location was a hike to downtown and more than... More

Lovely motel, large room, two big beds, friendly greeting and clean. great central location but far enough away to be peaceful. Only negative was walls between rooms which were very thin so could hear everything neighbours were saying. Despite that would recommend.
