We had a great stay at the Cabot Trail Motel. Kids loved the outdoor pool, deck, restaurant and that the car was right outside the door. Staff was very pleasant. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Less than 5 minutes to the town with lots of shopping options and close to the Cabot Trail of course.

This property is in a convenient location to the Cabot Trail. Owner and staff are very attentive. The area lost power for a few hours and the owner gave us her reservation at a restaurant down the street that had a generator. So we enjoyed a wonderful meal and she stayed at the motel to attend to guests. We had a delicious breakfast at the restaurant at the motel before heading out to the Cabot Trail. If we are in the area in the future we wil definitely stay here again!

Staff was super nice.The room we stayed in was very out dated and moldy. The bathroom had a bad smell, clogged bathtub and leaking faucet.
Yiqian, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This was our second stay at the Cabot Trail Motel. We find the rooms very clean and well kept. The view of the lake from the room adds a nice touch. The staff were excellent when we had to leave early due to a family emergency back home. While our stay was short this year, we will be coming back.
