The Sunshine Inn

What guests think

At The Sunshine Inn, guests consistently praise the warm, hands-on owners, delicious made-to-order breakfasts, very clean updated rooms, and quiet, well-kept grounds with a small lake and boats, while noting the location sits slightly outside town.

Rooms provide practical touches like fridges, microwaves, kettles, and reliable Wi-Fi. Service is accommodating with easy check-in and check-out, though a few reviews note isolated issues such as firm beds, thin walls, pests, a billing disagreement, or a leak that wasn't promptly addressed. Best for travellers seeking a country-style motel with simple comforts.

The Sunshine Inn is a gem of an old-school motel. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Hosts are friendly and ready to make your stay relaxing. An added bonus is the facility: outside firepit and lawn games, short walk to a beautiful pond with a canoe and space to swim. Wish we'd stayed longer...

The property was very well groomed, freshly cut grass, neat driveway and office. The bathroom area reflected care taken with towels, sink/ tub fixtures. It was great to have a small frig, microwave, coffee/tea making appliances. Table, chairs, bed and dresser are very tasteful too. Everything that you might need has been provided. The breakfast area by the office is cottage chic. There were several delicious breakfast choices. Use of free kayaks, paddles, life jackets are available at the office for use on their lake. Great stay!

The refrigerator was much larger than expected - held all our ice packs that stayed frozen for our trip home -also large enough to hold all the food we travelled with !! Everything you would want while travelling was there - electric kettle !!, microwave,mugs, glasses, etc, good amount of tv channels Super clean and updated rooms -bathroom was cleanest and nicest I've ever seen while travelling !! Super friendly owners. Dining room spotless and great choices for breakfasts and well prepared food. Grounds were well kept and very appealing to the eye. Everything well done by the owners and our stay was delightful.

Leider haben wir in unserer Unterkunft unzählige Ameisen aufgefunden, vor allem auf dem Esstisch & auf dem Nachttischschrank neben dem Bett. Das ganze Zimmer und Badezimmer waren sehr feucht und muffig. Handtücher & Bettwäsche waren klamm. Positiv war der Parkplatz, welcher direkt vor der Eingangstür der Unterkunft war. Ebenso war das Frühstück sehr lecker und ausreichend.

Sunshine was definitely a great name for this Air BB as it definitely lived up to its name. We were very fortunate to be able to find somewhere to stay as it was late notice. We were greeted with open arms. Our room was immaculate with all the comforts of home. We were served at fabulous homemade breakfast and trust me you will want to try their flapjacks. The best I’ve ever taste. We were also permitted to do some blueberry picking in their field behind their units, which we greatly appreciated. We will definitely be returning and would encourage anyone looking for fine food and great service to reserve as soon as possible. Thank you so much for the warm welcome. We will be back with our family and friends

My nine year old daughter and I spent a three day weekend at The Sunshine Inn. Laura, the owner, was accommodating regarding our late check in allowing us the opportunity to attend a family function with the peace of mind that we would be able to access our room after hours that night. Laura made us feel at home throughout our three night stay. She adds little touches and we felt comfortable and relaxed for the entirety of our trip. The only thing I can say I was disappointed with was I accidentally booked the room for two adults, but there was a rate for children under 12. I spoke with Laura on the phone prior to our arrival and explained my mistake. She assured me she would make the adjustment to the booking prior to charging my credit card. However when we arrived (we were earlier than expected and the office was still open) I reminded Laura of our conversation re: adjustment. At this point Laura told me that the room was priced for two people, regardless of age and proceeded to charge me for two adults. My daughter is 9, she’s big for her age but I felt that the reason I was overcharged was due to an assumption or judgment that my daughter was older because of her physical size. My daughter is self conscious of her size and was impacted by this incident. I highly recommend The Sunshine Inn and can’t speak highly enough of the breakfast included which is not unlike what you would expect from a five star restaurant. Affordable and comfortable rooms and cabins.
