Cindy (8/5): - Great kitchen set up. Great staff/owners.
Chris (10/5): - Cabin was everything i expected, nice place to rest and relax,
Jessica (10/5): - Very welcoming. Good water pressure and comfortable beds.
Kristine (10/5): Cute little cabin along the highway - We wanted a little more space to spread out. Loved the cabin. Just a caution, there doesn’t appear to be any restaurants closer than Marathon.
CHERYL (10/5): - The cottage has just been updated and is very nice!! It’s about 10 minutes from town and does not have a water view but is a nice place to stay,
Karen (10/5): - This was our 2nd time staying here in 2 years. Both times were good experiences. Staff was friendly and attentive. Rooms were clean and well appointed. Good value. Nice little decks to sit in the sun in the evening. You are beside the highway, so it is convenient for road trip and traffic at night isn't heavy/noisy. Would definitely go again and recommend for anyone looking for somewhere in this area.
Nancy (10/5): - Cute cottages. Very people. Clean. Great sauna.
Jamye (10/5): - Very nice, clean.staff was very friendly, even turned the heat up for us before getting there.
Patricia (10/5): - We stayed for one night. Friendly owners and very clean space. We would stay here again.
Robert (8/5): - Cottage was very clean and comfortable. Nothing around area. Dining etc. Thought lake would be visible. Good for stop over when traveling. Was surprised a little with the $20. Each for children. 9 and 12. To their defense it was expedia issue.
Donald (10/5): - Loved everything. Great host, very friendly and hospitable. Sauna was quite a nice way to relax after a day's drive. Overall, a wonderful experience.
Emma (10/5): - It was a lovely cabin. There was a real wood fired sauna we could use. Heaven.
Jeff (10/5): Cute place - This was a cute little place to stop along our vacation...convenient, quiet and clise enough to Terrace Bay to grab a nite and see the Augasabon Falls and Gorge. We definately would recommend these vottages to others.
Naomi (10/5): - Immaculately clean, spacious with full kitchen facilities. The bed was extremely comfortable with crisp wonderfully delightful sheets making for a delicious sleep. I noticed a sauna and had we had more time I would have liked to indulge. Highly recommend!
Susan (10/5): - Lovely easily accessible spot. Quaint and unique
Martin (10/5): - Staff extremely kind, room in good shape. Would stay again.
Brad (10/5): - Really enjoyed our cozy cottage. Very clean and comfortable.
Marlene (8/5): - It was clean and the beds were comfy. Welcoming host.
David (10/5): Clean, comfortable, and well-stocked cabin. - Jackfish Lake Cabins has earned a new regular! We had a wonderful 3-night stay in August. Cabins included a fully-stocked kitchen which we utilized to make two dinners and daily breakfasts, including using the shared outdoor grill (make sure you purchase groceries in advance as nearby stores are limited in selection and hours). Brenda went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Location was convenient for nearby hiking and attractions, and the property was well-lit. Bathroom water pressure and consistent hot water was excellent. We will be back!
Kelly (10/5): - Such a unique stay. The cottage was a perfect size for my husband and I. Easy parking for any size vehicle or trailer. We only stayed one night since we were passing through but we would stay again if ever in the area. Kitchenette was perfect. Sitting area inside and out on the deck. Faces the sunset. The owner was so great to talk to. Great stop!
Shane (10/5): - Great cozy stay
Rachel (8/5): Nice unexpected finft - This is surprisingly up to date lodging! Not expected based on look of exterior. Should be noted there is no air conditioning
Eric (10/5): - Excellent, very nice people and very clean
Daniel (10/5): - Great place to stay, very clean and accommodating, ten out of ten.
VLADIMIR (10/5): Jackfish Lake Cottages stay - We have enjoyed our stay at the Jackfish Lake Cottages. Our host was very friendly and gave us some chocolates and left pretty flower in a vase in the cottage. Entire cottage was spotless and beds were very comfortable. Kitchen was just right for our short stay and had everything we needed. Bathroom was lovely, plenty of towels and small soaps.
Kim (10/5): - Pleasant staff and cozy cottages little vibe
Paul (8/5): - Very friendly person checking in, cabin was clean and comfortable, a little older
Scott (10/5): - Great place for a night
Ben (10/5): - Very clean and comfortable, well maintained and cared for
Peggy (10/5): Cozy and clean - I was hesitant to book a small hotel on the highway - but the reviews convinced me to try. It was great and I would do it again! Nicely renovated (happily, no carpet). Super clean with good towels and sheets. Kitchenette had coffee (sugar, pd cream), dish soap, towels, dishes. We were completely happy. It is quiet and beautiful and yes, there is the highway but it was not noisy at night.
Breann (10/5): - Friendly staff, wonderful location, room was clean, and comfy beds. Kitchen area looked great although we didn’t use it as we didn’t have food to cook.
Paul (10/5): Comfortable and Cozy - Brenda was super nice with info about local hikes, provisions, even vintage postcards. The stay was comfortably cozy with the natural beauty of the area everywhere.
lesley (10/5): - If you’re looking for a stopover in the marathon area this is the best value in the area. Very clean and remodelled rooms. East parking, comfortable beds and great shower.
Steffi (8/5): - We were on our way to Toronto and got to spend only a night at the place as we left very early the next day. The people were very friendly. The place was clean and tidy. But there were a lot of mosquitoes outside and some even got inside the room.
Rick (10/5): - Lovely place and lovely owners!
Shauna (10/5): - Very clean and comfortable, friendly
James (10/5): - Small cabins, but overpowered by the cleanliness and outstanding staff friendliness
Verified traveler (10/5): Great place and location. - We had a terrific stay. This had full size fridge and stove/oven and all the utensils we needed. It is in a great location. Would definitely recommend staying here.
Paul (10/5): - I left a pair of shoes behind. The owner was very kind and shipped them back to me with Canada Post. Very helpful.
Marilyn (8/5): - It's right off the Trans Canadian hwy, so convenient but lots of road noise. The fall leaves around the lake were gorgeous! And the beach area was very nice!
WILLIAM (8/5): - A good stay!
Ray (10/5): - Good location, great cabins and the greatest hosts
Emily (10/5): - Great little cottage’s. clean, friendly staff. 10/10 would recommend & will be Back next time I’m in the area. Love the kitchenette, full size fridge & stove.
Lorne M (8/5): - quiet, clean, friendly; bring your own food as none available locally.
Peggy (10/5): - Very clean, great guest service, beds were amazing!
Michael (10/5): - I highly recommend this property. The lady at check-in was very nice. They are little cottages set up as duplexes. Spacious, clean, and cute. The only negative for me was how small the shower was. If you're a bigger guy like me prepare to do some acrobats to clean the undercarriage lol. If you're looking to stop outside of Terrace Bay, this is the place!
Mischell (10/5): Loved this place. - These cottages are extremely clean and comfortable. The front desk check in was pleasant. No phone in room, but most people have cellphones, there is a working phone booth in the parking lot if necessary. I was worried about road noise but it wasn't a problem. We will definitely stay again.
Kristina (10/5): - This was the perfect place to stop along our trip around Lake Superior. Easy to find, clean, spacious, and so reasonably priced. The staff is friendly and the cabin had everything we needed.
Colleen (10/5): - The cabin was very clean and looked like it had been renovated. It was a very quite property and the owner was nice.
Philip (8/5): - Too close to Highway. Can hear the truck passby during sleeping 😴
Tanya (10/5): - Lovely host and even had freshly picked flowers.
Anthony (10/5): - Clean and well maintained property with excellent customer service. We had a great and comfortable stay.
Brian (8/5): - Convenient, clean and well-equipped cottages located along highway 17 between Kenora and Sudbury. Had a lovely walk to the Jackfish Lake beach, recommended by the owners. Very comfortable beds, good internet access, and cable TV.
Rosanna (10/5): - Love this property - would definitely stay again and recommend it to others We had a late check in and they even waited up for us with a warm welcome and chocolates. Cottage was wonderful.
TIANXING (8/5): - No meals offered and no hairdryer in the room. Other than that it was fine
Cristian (10/5): - Nice staff, clean cabin
Joseph (10/5): - Simple remodelled cottage. Everything you need.
Alexandra (10/5): - The room was nicely decorated and clean. We would definitely stay here again.
Jenny (10/5): - Owner was very friendly and helpful. Our cottage was very clean and looked to be recently remodeled. Located right on the highway but didn’t have any trouble sleeping. Would stay here again.
Doug (10/5): - It is easy to recommend Jackfish. It's a straight forward motel with duplex cottages (2 units per cottage) with a sitting elevated deck in front of each. The room included a full size refrigerator, an apartment sized electric range, electric drip coffee maker (filters and coffee provided), and microwave, along with 4 place settings of plates/cups/etc. Bathroom was updated, with a 30" shower - smallish, but usable No A/C, but with lows in the 40s, it did not matter. Beds were comfy. The owner_managers are onsite and are eager to please.
Doreen (10/5): Very clean and comfortable stay! - We loved our stay! The cottage was extremely clean and had everything we needed during our visit. It is directly on the highway, so you'll constantly hear the noise of traffic, but we didn't feel it was an issue at all. All the hotels along the Lake Superior Loop are right off the highway anyway. We used the very clean outdoor gas grill to cook our dinner, which we ate while we sat on the deck and watched the traffic go by! Staff was very accommodating and nice (the chocolates were a nice touch - thank you!). There's a full size refrigerator and everything you'd need in the kitchen. The owners have put quite a bit of work into updating the cottages and it sure shows! We highly recommend Jackfish Lake Cottages.
Gregory (10/5): - Clean and comfortable, i will go back.
Jon (10/5): - This was a hidden gem. The cottages are older and small, but very clean and well kept. The bed was very comfortable, and the staff was amazing!! We loved this place and would highly recommend it.
Sheila (10/5): - Super comfortable beds. The staff was so welcoming and anticipated everything we'd want or need. Squeaky clean rooms. Nice to have the grill for making our dinner.
