What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“We love this place ! The new owners have spent a lotta time and money fixing it up ! They treat us well and are very friendly! The rooms and new and clean ! It’s has everything you need for a short stay or long stay ! We go every year for the electric forest . It’s so peaceful and comfy and relaxing . We wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else . - Hector and Julissa from California”
“We were so very impressed with our stay. We rolled into Sault Ste Marie without any real plans in mid July, and there was a vacancy. The young man that checked us in was courteous, our room was very clean, the bathroom was updated, and the price of $79 was extremely reasonable! We will stay here again!”
“Well run place, love that they recently remodeled!! Nice location to stay to fish the St Mary’s River.”
“This is our second trip and stay @ Last resort. Family owned and operated. Service was top notch. Rooms were very clean and well stocked. Beds are comfortable. They also have a bait shop for people who want to fish. Very affordable rooms highly recommend .”
“Wild Bills tackle shop had everything I needed to set up my boat I just bought. Dave and Billy did a great job lining me up with every aspect of fishing walleyes from poles,reels,line, planning boards,tackle to bait. Great knowledge and experience. Taylor's warm smiling welcome as I entered the shop even with being very busy answering phones and helping customers with Last Resort customers. Highly recommend both places right on the river.”
“I'll start by saying I am hesitant to give this place the review they deserve because I don't want the secret to get out and they will be too busy for me to book a room from them in the future but here goes anyways. In my opinion the Last Resort is the best place to stay in the Soo. The owner and his family are some of the nicest people you could ever imagine. They are incredibly knowledgeable about anything Soo related that you could possibly ask them. The rooms are spotless and the baitshop has everything you need to go fishing if thats your thing too.”
