Silver Maple Motel

The room was very clean and bright.

The room we have doesn't represent the outer look. The room we were in was refurbished, looked, slept, and smelled nice. We had a nice stay, thank you.

Small quiet and clean room with friendly staff.

I booked a room to share with friends for one night. My friend arrived ahead of me and checked in. She decided to book an additional room to provide us more space. She was given a cheaper rate. I was already prebooked and charged a higher rate. The manager should have adjusted my price when offering a discounted rate to my friend who was booking an additional room that would likely not have been used that evening.

My two sons and I stayed here as we were dogsledding just north of Haliburton. This was a pleasant, clean and simple motel which was perfect for our needs. The beds and pillows were comfortable and all of the linens including towels were new and bright. We will stay here again.

We were participating in an overnight car rally running out of Minden so the location was good being on the highway home. Checked in and immediately requested a noon checkout, was granted with no extra charge due to the expected heavy snowstorm. Got organized and only had an hour's rest before heading to the event, then in the morning got back about 8am. Passed on the hotel breakfast and went straight to sleep before heading home at noon. We are thankful for that. Really needed sleep before the 4h drive home. BIG snowstorm that day. Room, bedding etc was clean & warm. Loved the supplied fridge and microwave. Came in handy.

Being a Motel, the usual issue of other guests having loud conversations right outside your window. Snowmobiles coming and going. No one idled or rev'd their engines at least. Found the heater noisy. Recommend good earplugs. Found the washroom got chilly if the door was kept closed. Parking was a maze of pickups & skidoo trailers but there was a BIG snowstorm so markings were impossible to see. Lastly, I feel >$200 is pricey for 1 night in a 2-queen bed motel room. The cleanliness and appliances make up for it but I've stayed in bigger, nicer hotel rooms for cheaper in downtown Montreal.

The rent was a bit more than what I expected, but I was ok with it.

The parking was a bit tight for rm 17
