Welcome to McLeese Lake Resort

McLeese Lake Resort stands out as a serene retreat nestled on the shores of McLeese Lake, British Columbia. This well-maintained resort offers a blend of motel units, cozy cabins, and ample space for RVs and tent camping, catering perfectly to families, pet owners, and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Boasting a strong 4.5-star rating, the resort’s charm lies not only in its breathtaking lake views and surrounding hills but also in its warm, attentive hospitality. Guests consistently praise the kindness and generosity of the owners, which adds a personal touch that elevates the overall experience.

The resort's pet-friendly policy is a notable highlight, thoughtfully extending to little accommodations such as dog dishes and towels. Visitors find immense comfort in the immaculate rooms and grounds, making McLeese Lake Resort a preferred stopover for road travelers seeking a peaceful respite. Though the proximity to the highway introduces some background noise, it does little to diminish the natural beauty and calming atmosphere that the resort provides.

While the simplicity of amenities aligns with its rustic charm—offering free Wi-Fi but lacking air conditioning, pools, or fitness centers—the true draw is the connection to nature and community. The resort’s kitchens in some rooms encourage relaxed family meals, tying well with the spirit of family reunions often hosted here. Some guests note minor inconveniences such as the timed coin-operated hot showers, a small compromise for an otherwise comfortable stay.

In essence, McLeese Lake Resort invites travelers to slow down and immerse themselves in the tranquil lakeside setting, with a welcoming environment that feels like an extension of home. It succeeds in delivering a genuine, heartfelt experience where the simplicity of life by the lake shines through, leaving visitors with lasting memories of both place and people.

We reserved ahead and had our dog. They had 2 dog dishes and a towel for her! Super dog friendly! Lovely owners! Immaculate rooms and grounds! We will make this our regular, favorite stop as we travel through. The lake views are spectacular, as are the surrounding hills. So beautiful, you hardly even notice the road noise.

Awesome place for a family reunion! The resort has motel units, cabins, RV and tent sites on a beautiful lake! Something for everyone. Everything is well cared for with many updates since our last visit. The beds in the motel were awesome! And coffee was supplied for our entire stay! Nice touch. The proximity to the highway invaded the peace and quiet a bit otherwise I would give this place 5 stars.

Gorgeous space! The cabins were not big enough for our family of 6, but the resort itself was in a gorgeous spot and we had an amazing family reunion because of that!

This is a prime location by Mcleese Lake. Beautiful setting of a model with a few cabins, RVs & a few campsites for tents or vehicles. I gave a 4 stars because of the hot shower issue. It runs on a timer with one loonie at a time. The shower stopped when I had shampoo on my hair. There wasn't indication for paying hot shower & no how many minute for a loonie when I checked in. Probably, I wasn't booked it online. So, not much info was given. I carried all my shower stuff to the ladies' washroom, then found out on a notice by the wash sink about inserting a loonie, but no timing was given. I walked all the way to my car & walked back with one loonie (that's all I have in my purse, only small coins). It's a very good site for motel rooms & cabins. There is not much shade for RVs & cars. The docks are good for fishing, kayaking & swimming. It has a small kid's playground but no pool. It is right at Williams Lake after all.
