Lakeside Retreat
You don't have to choose between being close to everything and getting away from it all.
Inn on Long Lake is an independent, locally owned hotel tucked along the shores of Long Lake in Nanaimo.

Our spacious rooms and suites overlook the lake, with private balconies or patios designed for slowing down and taking it all in.

Every Room Sits Lake side
Whether you're here for one night or settling in for a longer stay, the lake is always part of the experience.Choose from spacious King and Two Queen rooms, kitchenettes and suites, with options for couples, families, business travellers, pets, and extended stays.
