The Lakeside Motel is at 349 Wellington Main Street, beside Lake Ontario, and combines motel rooms with two rental houses. Rooms include standard and lake-view doubles, a family room, a deluxe double with two queen beds, a premium king room, a bungalow that sleeps six and a luxury house. The property has a private beach, beach cabanas, rowing, a poolside bar, a terrace, a firepit, a coffee shop, bike rentals, electric car charging and free parking and Wi-Fi. A hot tub and sauna are available, and a reviewer notes they may cost extra. The seasonal outdoor pool closes for the cooler months. We have not confirmed a formal star class, so the rating field is left at zero.
Location and getting around
The motel is in the village, about a five-minute walk from the Wellington Heritage Museum and about fifteen minutes on foot from Rotary Beach. Sandbanks Estate Winery is about a five-minute drive, and Sandbanks Provincial Park is nearby. Belleville's station is about 32 minutes by car. Free parking is on site, and bike rentals make the Millennium Trail easy to reach.
The rooms and the feel
Rooms are around 400 square feet, with queen beds, and a lake-view double is offered. The deluxe double with two queen beds sleeps four, the family room sleeps three and the bungalow and houses suit groups of six. The beach, cabanas and rowing are the draw in summer. Details such as the bedroom count of the luxury house vary between sources, so confirm before you book.
Who it suits and what to know: choose it for a relaxed, good-value lakeside stay, especially in summer with a group or family. Outside summer the pool is closed and the beach is out of season, so the appeal is quiet, a firepit and the village. The coffee shop and restaurant keep daily hours, but season dates can vary, so call ahead about food in the off-season. Pets are accepted at one per room for a fee of 65 Canadian dollars per stay.
