We had a great stay at Lakeside Motel and Apartments, staying in a one bedroom apartment. The apartment was very clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed, which made our stay even more convenient. Parking was extremely convenient, located right by the door of the apartment. There was also a laundry facility available, which was very useful. The location is excellent, close to many restaurants and stores. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

This motel was amazing. We stayed for 3 nights, had more than enough space. The kitchenette was very convenient for slow breakfasts, the view of the mountains was stunning, the lake was right out the front door, and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Amazing experience!

Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and very comfortable - like a home away from home. The laundry facilities were excellent. Parking was easy. The kitchen area was easy to use and had everything we needed. The walk to town was a breeze. The location is beautiful and it’s a perfect place to stay if you plan to drive to Milford Sound.

The property is beautifully landscaped and the view of the lake and boats very nice. We were even treated to a morning rainbow. The unit itself is very liveable, dining table, couches, nice compartmented bathroom, and beds to sleep 5 comfortably. Check in and out were easy, goodwalking distance to town for shopping and eating. The only suggestion is to put a plywood under the double matress, as it sags towards the middle. Recommened!
