Frequently Asked Questions
The following is a list of some of the more common questions we get
related
to the resort. Of course, there will be many not on the list so
feel
free to contact us if there is something you can't find the answer to
on
the website. In no particular order......Updated for
Spring 2007.
Where is Mylie's located?
We're at the end of HWY 621, just past Morson, Ontario. Click
the
map link for reference to get an idea
of
the location in relation to Northern Minnesota.
What is the difference between a cabin and a motel unit?
The only difference is that the motels aren't "stand alone"
buildings.
Motel units 3A & 3B are side by side, just as 4A, 4B & 4C
share
the same roof. All the cabins and motels are totally independent
units.
The motels have front AND back entrances and generally more room
for
parking your vehicles in back as well. The motels are located in
the
central area of the resort and are close to the docks. Some
people
enjoy the motels, some people like the cabins, others don't care as
long
as they have a place to stay. We'll interchange the term cabin
and
motel . Any questions about "cabins" can be applied to the motel
units
as well. They all contain the same items.
What do the we get in the cabins with respect to bedding,
appliances,
etc?
When you rent a cabin, all bedding and towels are included.
Your
towels and garbage will be replaced daily as well. All cabins
have
full kitchen equipped with a refrigerator and stove as well as cookware
and
utensils.
Do the cabins have air conditioning?
Yes. As of May 2007, we have carpenters and an electrician
working to install A/C units in every cabin. We hope things will
go
smoothly and they will be ready for service when the hot weather
arrives. The ceiling fans will also always be available as
well.
Do the cabins have microwaves?
YES. We are planning on equipping every cabin with a microwave
for the 2007 season. There are still, no TVs and no
telephones
in the cabins.
How can someone get a message to me?
The office is more than happy to relay messages to any of our guests.
Just give your people our number (1-807-488-5616) and ask them to
leave
a message for you to call them back. There is a payphone
available
24 hours a day outside of the lodge. The payphone accepts majoy
credit
cards, as well as collect calls or other calling cards.
Can I buy a calling card at the resort?
Yes. We were able to get some prepaid calling cards last
summer
that will save you money on your calls home while you are in Canada.
They
are in $5 and $10 demoninations. Your US prepaid cards will be
drained
of minutes 3 or 4 times as fast when you make a call from Canada to the
US.
Buying a card at the office would save you lots of minutes on
your
cards at home.
Is there cell phone service in the area?
Yes. The newly constructed
cellular towers are supposed to be at full power and ready for service
in 2007. I would reccommend only using cell phones in cases of
emergency as roaming charges will be quite expensive.
What is the price in US money?
It depends on the exchange rate, but basically, you divide the
amount
in Canadian by the exchange rate plus 1. If it's 30%, divide by
1.30.
If it's 25%, divide by 1.25 and so on. The exchange rate
will
vary during the season. We always give a fair exchange on US cash
and
any credit card purchases are exchanged by your card company on the
date
the transaction is processed. Note: Credit card companies have
started charging a 2-3% foreign exchange surcharge on top of the less
than actual bank rate for exchanges. In most cases, paying
by check or cash using our exchange rate will save you money compared
to using a visa or mastercard.
