Detailed Reviews
My family had a recent reunion vacation at the Lakeside Resort where some of us stayed in the motel, some in the campground, and in the cabanas. During these unprecedented times of COVID, Lakeside resort staff's top priority was to ensure our safety and well-being with extra cleaning and safety protocols put into place. I was not concerned at any time for my family or myself. As in the previous stays, the staff are helpful and professional and they go above and beyond. A great place for a family vacation. "Never Disappointed".

I have been camping at the Lakeside resort every summer since I was a young child. It is my favourite holiday and the one I most look forward to every year. This year I stayed in a motel with my young son and it was also a great experience as we had more amenities and comfort while travelling with a baby. The staff are always friendly, it is very clean and the beach is sandy and welcoming. What more could you ask for?

If the fact that I haven't missed a year since I was born isn't a review, I don't know what is. I came here as a kid with my family, and I continue to come back as an adult because this place manages to feel like a home away from home. Families are not only welcome, but taken care of. Gorgeous lake, and beach, comfort-style amenities like showers, flush toilets, and a store, but enough of that "nature feel" surrounded by trees, warm breeze and time spent barefoot on grass and sand to feel like you're getting that re-charge that mother nature intended. Close proximity to neighbours and quiet time at 11 gives that community feel and the rest you probably need! I look forward to coming back each year!

We booked for 2 nights sites are really close but ok we get there and i have a small chev spark there are white lines to mark the sites width so my car being small fit in with the truck that we are hauling our trailer with. Staff informs me that i cannot park on the site i asked why as i am in the white lines doesnt matter its policy normally ok but we are traveling and i have a cargo bag on the top of my car so its easy access to get in it they informed me that i have to park on the street. The staff is very unfriendly and condescending when i inquired if there was additional parking somewhere the response i got was that is the rule and everyone follows it.
I guess customer service means nothing the fact that the car fit and we paid for the site is ridiculous was thinking about a week here but nope 2nights and we are moving onto somewhere a little more friendly and based on customer service!!

Good luck getting your deposit back !
Don’t stay there for the winter , these people will snoop and spy on you until they have enough evidence to kick you out so they can have your deposit , they kept 2 weeks of rent and my deposit ! They knocked on my door early in the morning while I was still in bed recovering from a flu , claiming that I haven’t been to work lately ( like it’s any of their business ) I pay the rent , claiming that I was a fire hazard meanwhile it’s nearly impossible to cook in those tiny kitchens without the fire alarm going off , they blamed me for a bunch of stuff , created the story how I am a fire hazard and without any notice and in the middle of winter they kicked me out on the street without giving me my deposit ., this is against the law and completely ridiculous!
Don’t stay there ! The place may look beautiful but people that run it are snoopers ( small place , not much else to do , the only form entertainment is spying on single women and kicking them out !
What I don’t get is they are a bunch of women too yet they had no problem with My grandfather kicking me out , taking my money I could have used for future rent and stealing 2 more weeks of rent from me without any whatsoever warning kicked me out on the street in the middle of winter .
They went inside my room without me being there and took what they thought were criminal photos and I still to this day have no clue what it was , Shawna said something about drugs but even if it was drugs ! At this present moment half the people that live there use meth and crack ! But it’s ok for them to stay as long as they pay the rent ?!!?? Really , no sense what so ever !
Don’t stay there , it’s so noisy , you can hear your neighbours farting !
It’s also very eerie , reminds me of a horror movie plot .
Beautiful place ruined by greed !
Good people would have fixed the fire hazard problem instead of blaming it on me and let me stay or at least give me the money so I can afford to go someplace else but no , they just figured to rob me completely and throw me out !
Fancy?

Very disappointed that the site was not cleaned for us, took a few buckets of soapy water to clean tables. The site says “No pets” and the sign on the way in says “No pets”, guess the owners don’t know about that rule. There were at least 5 dogs beside us and the barked most the day and early evening, one was a hound!

Great improvements with the adding of pws sites. Electric has been upgraded. Sites for camping are more level. Always great staff on hand. The place is wonderful to stay at, quiet and the lake is great for activities. Laundry and washroom facilities are fantastic and well kept. Wifi works well when we needed to access it for business as well.

We're so happy you've appreciated the new upgrades! That was quite the process . . . We had a few bugs to iron out in 2023 but we are feeling confident that the further adjustments made over the winter bodes well for the 2024 season!!

Our family got together for a reunion and holiday at Lakeside Resort. Our unit was fully equipped , perfect size and very clean. Family enjoyed time on the lake in their kayaks, golfing nearby and biking through the quiet neighbourhood. Lake Tuc-el-unit makes for an idyllic setting and the Lakeside Resort made our family getaway a perfect vacation. We are already making plans for next year !

Had the most wonderful time at Lakeside with a family reunion in early October.
Sally and her staff couldn't have been more accommodating. We all were more than comfortable in our lake view rooms and the setting couldn't have been more ideal.
THANKS AGAIN, as alway, Lakeside you're the best.

The resort is nice, but loud late into the night. They say it’s a relaxing and quiet time but they allow late music into the night. They also have an 11 o’clock quiet time but after telling people to quiet down, they don’t follow up and the parties just start up again. If partying is your scene, it’s a great time, but if you have little ones, skip it.

I'm so sorry you experienced noise at night! There's no excuse other than my patroller may have fallen asleep and the noise started up again! We post our number clearly and everywhere so that if your sleep is disturbed you can call us and we'll answer promptly. That's a guarantee!!

No...The township of Oliver has a rule about campfires; only ONE is permitted per campground. This is why you have "communal" campfires.
Propane fires are not permitted either.
We did see a pet dog in the campground area. Not sure about motel units
Unfortunately no pets allowed.
