The property was spacious for our family. It was deathly hot as they do not have any air conditioning and it was 30 plus humidex. Despite that we enjoyed our stay. It was very 1980 ish retro style. Overall a nice stay but definitely could use new furnishings and a good reno. Bring towels as they do not provide them.

Janet was very helpful when arranging check in and out. Room was somewhat dated, but very clean, comfortable and convenient.

The motel was nice, clean and quiet for a short trip of one night stay. Janet, one of the staff, was super friendly and gave us lots of information about the area. I recommend this motel as it’s very close to Tobermory around 30minutes and you can explore Lion’s Head as well.

It was clean and quiet. The staff was very friendly. The motel is a good choice for a short stay of 1 to 3 nights. It could do better with some upgrades of the facilities.

Great location, very clean, easy check-in and lots of info & tips from the lovely manager. Really the only negative point was the beds weren’t very comfortable and were very squeaky - any tossing and turning was very noisy and kept us all up

Just the Basics

Just an overnight visit to Lions Head area & really only required a place to sleep. Northwinds was very welcoming, had all we required & reasonably priced. Perfect spot for our needs on this trip. 😁😁

I had a really terrible experience with this motel. I was able to “check in”, even though there is no staff on site. This is where the problems really began. Since there is no staff on site, if you have an issue, you are going to have an even bigger issue getting it resolved. The toilet in my room had its chain disconnected, and to fix that, you had to know how toilets work and stick your hand in a tank of dank black mold tainted water. Staff were unresponsive to multiple texts and calls. Avoid this motel at all costs.

Lovely little motel- traditional house converted into a charming inn. Check-in was easy, although unconventional. Room was small but not cramped- perfect for a 1-2 night stay. Very clean, even if a little dated. Loved the rural setting- plenty of fun with the cows in the field behind the property! Only ‘complaint’ was the water- very strong iron smell of the water made showering or teeth brushing unpleasant.

Motel vieillissant , mais très propre

Motel figé dans le temps par ses meubles et literies. Pas d’air climatisé, un ventilateur est fourni dans la chambre. Chambre très propre et lit confortable. Très bon prix pour la région en ce temps de vacances

I stayed up all night because of the terribly mold smell of the room. No air conditioning and a small fan. I keep the fan on all night tried to get the mold smell away. However despite of the fan and essential oil, the mold smell is still intense. The room is small, no sunlight so it's explained the terribly moldy smell... So painful and didn't even sleep for one hour

I like the back of the motel, it has a table there, and the view there is pretty good. We booked two rooms, but the smell in the rooms was so bad, and the neighbour was pretty loud in the morning too.
