We arrived at night and left before sunrise but didn't see any "view". Everything was old and tired. Outlets didn't work so phone didn't charge. Bar of used soap, lumpy saggy bed.

Who ever owns/runs this piece of trash that probably was once a pleasant place to stay has no business doing so. I doubt any work has been done to it since the ‘70s. Why you post it on your site beggars belief.

There's limited accommodations between Thunder Bay and Dryden. It's all you need while you're crossing the country. Or moose hunting. Friendly staff. I'd recommend it!

The bed was comfortable, but only had a bottom sheet (looked like brand new) and a comforter! I doubt that it gets washed after every guest! Good shower. The kitchenette is community but kitchenettes were advertised. It was filthy, cold water only for dishes (found this out after eating). Stove and hot plate looked like a fire waiting to happen. Won’t be back.

Campground cabin motel. Nature outside and inside. Food options on the road as you arrive or leave. You can safely go outside, which isn’t something Thunder Bay can boast about. Oddly nice toilet paper in contrast to everything else.

Bed linens were not changed, visible dirt and hair was seen on the fitted sheet, strong smell of curry on linen that was given for pull out couch with bright yellow stains on the sheets. No air control either. 1/10 rating.
