New place in Monkey Bay. Lovely place! Nice rooms, starlink internet, large pool and 2 minute walk to the waterfront. Restaurant serves excellent food! Place is great now, and will continue to get better! Margot and Alfred are continually working on the place it will only get better. The only downside is location; its a bit away from the downtown core, though tbh there's not really much to see or do in town besides the lake. Also a bit off the main road (your choice- by the road or by the water!), though i bet if you called ahead, theyd come and pick you up-- i believe a more formal pickup service is in the plans. Highly recommend.
