Bala-Hy ... Art speaking
Quaint, quirky and absolutely beautiful. Dated, but clean. The most gorgeous 10+ acres right on the water. There is a reason the same families have been renting their waterfront cottages for 25yrs.

We stayed here two nights over ð¨ð¦ Thanksgiving weekend this year, while in town for the Blue Rodeo show. It's what you'd expect from a 1960's motel. It is clean and the staff are great, including Herb, the proprietor, and Alison, the front desk person. Both lovely. The rooms are very basic, but did I mention clean? We will stay here again, because it is easy walking distance from The Kee to Bala, an amazing quintessential Canadian dance hall which is now a concert venue. The motel has a garden centre as part of the property, plus three cottages on Long Lake, but we stayed in the two bedroom apartment above the office. The double bed (in one bedroom, the second bedroom has two twins) is firm, and very comfortable. There is a small kitchen in this room, complete with stove/oven and microwave, plus fridge. There is a window-mounted ac, which we did not use given we were there In October. A comfy couch and love seat, plus small tv with satellite reception in the living room. All in all, a decent place provided you're not expecting a 5 star resort. As I say, we will return.
nice motel

Stayed here last weekend bc we were going to a concert at the Kee- a few minutes walk. Rooms were small, but clean and adequate w a mini fridge, lots of towels and extra blankets. Owners were very nice. Small patio at end of motel with chairs and a table and umbrella.
Weâll be staying here again next year bc we go to the Kee every year to see Sam Roberts. There are also small cottages on the water for rent, but apparently they are already booked for next year.

Return visit after several years. Right on the main road. Friendly reception, parking at motel room, mini fridge, excellent TV reception, window AC as well as two other windows to open, comfortable beds, shower pressure & temp were great.
Manicured gardens at the front.
Close to shopping & restaurants.
Great little quiet motel

We have stayed here several times, this is my grandsons favorite place, lots of kids, fishing swimming , boating,
This time my husband and I were alone and stopped on our motorcycle for a night, I called Allison a couple days ahead explaining that weather permitting we would like a room she held it for us, just on our word, I confirmed the morning of arrival that we would be there around 5 P.M. they are so accommodating.
This is a small motel, very dated, not at all fancy, but its clean, quiet and has great atmosphere. Rates are reasonable. Walking distance to the town and on Tuesday nights a free water show on the lake, nightly camp fires by the lake for all guests. We love this place and will return. Thank you for a great nights rest.
