Our little house cabin was beautiful. Clean, well equipped, great front patio to sit and have a champagne. The bathrooms were plentiful. The onsite facilities were quality. Fabulous TV room and kitchens. Right on the beach but protected by a dune. Very well maintained by lovely staff.

Great little place to stay and so close to the amazing beach!!!! We had a little unit with a bunny bed and double bed. Little microwave and a little “ island” tha theme dishes,kettle. Etc…. The brash was steps away. And behind the hotel/ park is a really really good restaurant so there was no need to walk or drive anywhere. Cute little place to stay right on the beach. Loved it.

Rudimentaire

Confort rudimentaire. Bungalow très petit et sans rangement, il est même compliqué de circuler avec 2 valises. Les sanitaires sont à l'exterieur ce qui peut être compliqué avec de jeunes enfants ou même dès qu'il pleut.

The chalet was great, however, i thought that having to walk to the toilet and showers was something i did not enjoy bit i know now not to book in the Winter season again and would probably go to a motel. 4 out of 5 is also my rating. Thanls

Very nice to be very close to the beach and hear the waves. Be aware that there will be lake flies and they do get in when you open the door to your cabin. The shared bathroom was kept clean.

We loved being able to hear the roar of the ocean, which was only a few steps away. Great having playgrounds for kids so close by too. Our place was clean, and we had everything we needed. Bit of an ant infestation going on that needs to be taken care of. Food options are limited and very expensive. Overall, a very beautiful place and would go there again.
