Set approximately 1.5 km from downtown Lunenburg, the location is ideal for visitors wishing to combine beach access with close proximity to town amenities and local attractions. Nearby points of interest include the Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic, The Ovens Park, and the Lunenburg Waterfront, all within easy reach for exploration. While some reviewers mention the motel’s quiet and relaxing environment along with well-maintained grounds, others note that rooms can be modest in size and some bathrooms compact.
Guest feedback highlights the clean and comfortable nature of the accommodations, with several praising the attentive and friendly onsite management. The presence of ocean views, a quiet setting, and convenient parking adds to the appeal for travelers seeking a low-key base near Lunenburg’s maritime charm. However, amenities are basic and the property is not fully accessible, which may be important considerations for some visitors.

Clean rooms. Peaceful and comfortable stay. Location was less than 10 mins from downtown. Owner was very helpful and pleasant. Lovely to see a deer outside our room while we had breakfast. Would stay again.
A tidy motel style property slightly further up the road from Lunenburg. Nice and quiet location with its own beauty and view. The only noise you may or may not notice might be from your direct neighbors on either side. Property well maintained and run. Ramped up there w/o prior reservation and got a deal for a single/2-bed motel room at 215 CAD (~140 EUR), which could be considered a kinda pricy. Still within the range around the region, though.
Great spot to stay. We rented one of the smaller rooms and it was quite small but all we needed was a place to freshen up and rest our heads. It was cleaner than many of the hotel rooms that I’ve stayed at. Quiet and relaxing location. I could hear a barred owl calling one morning. I would stay here again for sure!
Very serene and quiet accommodations that are beautifully furnished. Rooms are clean and come with all necessary amenities, including a small refrigerator. There is lovely view of the water, parking at the front of the cabin. The bed was comfortable ensuring a great night’s rest. Located a few minutes from Lunenburg, this is a perfect spot to unwind.
Beautiful location,top service. This team gives 120%. It was about awesome and welcoming. We just stayed short time but this is gonna to change. That's a safed adress in my vacation book. Absolutely overwhelmed. Thank you so much Markus and his dreamteam
Love this place! It was my second time staying here. The rooms are incredibly clean, bed comfortable. Staff is friendly and you can see the owners on site working away maintaining and putting their heart and soul into the place. Lovely view of the ocean, great fire pit in the evening and very close to Lunenberg. Also a nice jumping off point to visit Mahone Bay and Peggy’s Cove. Only complaint would be that the bathroom is very small. I would love to stay again
We stayed in a motel suite with a kitchenette for three nights in August 2025. It was very clean and newly renovated. Great view out the big front window of the bay in the distance. Every morning we sat in the chairs in front of our suite and drank our coffee and enjoyed the sunshine and beautiful view. It was very quiet and peaceful. Right across the road was access to a lovely rocky beach. There are many restaurants in Lunenburg, less than a 10 minute drive. The owner, Marcus was very friendly and responsive to our needs. I highly recommend this motel.
A little of the beaten track, but a beautiful quiet place to relax, only 5 minutes from Lunenburg. Some great restaurants and pubs. Dinning is one of the best things here after enjoying the beautiful town, the scenery the culture and of course the welcoming people. This place was one of the best hotels I stayed at.
Set across the road from the beach, this simple motel complex with cottages is 1.5 km from downtown Lunenburg.
