This is a 1950s era motel/hotel. It is clean and friendly, and the hosts are great. You can't get a better location near the beach in Sylvan Lake. The section I stayed in is of cedar log panabode construction, which I found pleasant. I was told it is scheduled to be replaced by a condo develpment next year. They are hoping the cedar logs will be for sale.

The Lodge is in an excellent location, right across the street from the beach. The owners are very friendly and helpful. It's an older motel and it's definitely a bit run down, but you can't beat the location.

The location is fantastic for sure. It needs a lot of updating & new & modern furniture, bedding, etc would help. The couple running the motel are fantastic & accomodating.

We stayed here for a long weekend. The hotel was fully booked for one night, so, I'm sure, it was louder than normal. Despite being so busy, the noise was kept to a minimum. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating. There is enough parking on site for at least one vehicle per room. The hotel is located in the perfect location. It is walking distance to all the spots you, as a tourist, would want to see. The food options near by are great. The kitchenette gave us a great option to eat in if we chose to do so. Thank you Racoon staff for the great experience. We will chitter at you next time we are staying in your area.
