The Spirit Rock Outpost & Lodge

Location was perfect for what I needed and easy to find. I didn’t get to have any but. I really liked that they had ice cream in the lobby. The decor was dated by about 40 years but, tasteful. I didn’t mind. I didn’t even mind making friends with a spider I couldn’t reach in the bathroom. It is cottage country after all. I loved the little back patio, even though I didn’t get to use it and the room seemed to have all the amenities I might need except an iron or a hair dryer which wasn’t an issue on this trip. Best of all , the room was huge! I didn’t need the space but, if I had my family with me, it would certainly be appreciated. Parking was right outside which was very convenient.

Some of the outlets and switches didn’t work and there was no overhead lighting so, I had to find my way to a lamp before closing the door and losing the light from outside. It was all lit up and cozy when I first got there though, which was very inviting after a long drive. A second night stand on the other side of each bed would have made using my cpap machine while charging my cell phone a little easier.

A very comfortable and clean motel, close to Wiarton and its attractions. We went because of its proximity to the Bruce Trail. We thoroughly enjoyed being pampered during check-in and our hosts were warm and friendly and eager to be of help. We had a large spotlessly clean room with an ensuite bathroom. Out our back door (yes - a back door) was an open space which included a sitting area with a fire pit and a play structure for children. Although breakfast was not included the host was preparing dinner for other guests and we were invited. The dinner was excellent - maybe the best Thali we ever had!

The front and back of the motel could use some love with respect to landscaping.

Easily accessible from Hwy 6. A good minimalistic motel to stay at one or a couple nights. I had a bike race to attend early Sunday morning so sleeping over Saturday night was better than traveling 3+hrs in the middle of the night. Cozy motel room with parking outside your door.

Cleanliness of the place was good. Only thing was that toilet was right next to the bathtub, so right leg was against the tub. Not a deal breaker since the bathroom was clean.

The owner of the property were very helpful and amazing. Very good homemade Indian vegetarian food at reasonable prices, however the quality of food exceeded the prices. Rooms were clean and well maintained along with all the necessary supplies.

I can’t think of any.

The place is very nice , very nice people run it ... A few upgrade going on at the place but great place for families and good location....free breakfast in the am.....very quiet at night....

I just had a problem with the tub when I got in a part came off ... I fix it with a wash cloth to cover up the fan in the tub...also the fridge has no dial and my food froze in the fridge....

It is a beautiful place owned and managed by a lovely family. This is undoubtedly the best hospitality we have experienced in so many years. The complimentary breakfast was a lovely surprise. We loved every bit of our stay and we are definitely going to visit and stay there many more times.

Loved every thing about it!

Staff and owners are super friendly and accommodating. Property is well maintained and rooms are very clean.

Rooms are very clean but dated. The owners informed us that it’s difficult at the moment to get contractors. Everything is functional and in good working order.

We stayed here after a long day of hiking, the host was very welcoming & the room was very comfortable - absolutely loved the electric fireplace! Would definitely stay again if ever back in this area.

Strong Wifi, clean, central controls for heating and AC. Also, back door leads to a lovely backyard with picnic table, BBQ and play area.

More amenities like cups and soap dish in washroom. Easier to use shower controls.

Overall we had a good stay, there was a basic kitchen for us to use, a BBQ outside on the terrace, free coffee and tea, and at night there was a bonfire. We took a short walk into town and we found restaurants and everything we needed nearby. Free parking and close to the main highway.

No breakfast due to Covid despite it being in the hotel description that detail should have been removed but we were understanding of that. We had to pay a higher rate in order to stay as a group of 3-4 people when we had already paid extra for a larger room with a futon which should accommodate up to 5. Most hotels just charge the room rate regardless of the number of guests especially since there was no breakfast included there shouldn’t be an additional fee as we were not exceeding the room capacity.
