Cabot Trail Motel was conveniently located for our tour atound the Cabot Trail. It had a beautiful view with a deck to sit out on, as did all the rooms. The facility is older but it was clean with comfortable beds. That's important. Our timing was perfect to tour the trail as the color of the foilage was at it's peak, October 9/24. It has an onsite restaurant but we didn't eat there because we were touring and our visit was short. Check in and out was easy. The staff was excellent and humorous. We would definitely stay there again.

Nice little spot. Well kept.
Quiet and comfortable. The restaurant had good service and good food. We found the hotel rate was $20 cheaper than the rate we paid on Hotels.com. The clerk at the desk upgraded us slightly because of this and put us in one of the rooms at the very front.

The front desk and servers in the restaurant were very nice. Unfortunately the room was very tired and in need of updating. The room was very small, the mattress wasn’t comfortable, the pillows were super flat and cheap. It did have a very nice view of the lake across the street. Would look for nicer lodging next time.
