What guests think
Travellers describe Otis Harbor Springs as a stylish, retro-renovated motor lodge with a lively bar and highly regarded food, set in a scenic, quiet area a short drive from Harbor Springs and regional attractions.
Guests consistently highlight friendly, attentive service and very clean, well-kept spaces. Availability can be limited, with the cafe or lounge closed at times and breakfast not always offered. Trade-offs include smaller or darker rooms, occasional noise from neighbors or AC, and rooms often omitting TVs and fridges. Expect a relaxed, social stay best suited to travelers who value style over in-room extras.

Great property. I love the overall look and feel. I stayed here before it was renovated and it's a whole lot better. There were a few things that could have been better but overall no major issues. The lounge and main building is awesome. The room we stayed in was kinda small but it was fine.

We enjoyed staying here as a one-night deal as part of our Michigan roadtrip! Absolutely beautiful property and very nice room. I honestly loved not having a TV. They had so many other things to do with either your people or socialize with others staying there. I wish we stayed longer to utilize their amenities more.

The hotel was very nice. We pretty much had it to our self since it’s off season. Pool won’t be ready until summer. Cafe not available after certain hour or on Monday. I wish there was a continental breakfast included in your stay for the price. The bed was very comfortable. Awesome view of the lake.

OTIS is incredible! From check-in to check-out, our stay was top notch. The location of OTIS is perfect! The rooms are beautiful, the beds/bedding, most comfortable. The redo of this whole space is top notch! My favorite was the bar area. I named it the gathering place because you truly do walk in and feel invited, warm and welcome. Also, excellent coffee! Thank you OTIS for the best experience we have ever had! We will return!

Absolute RIPOFF! This property lacked any semblance of service or hospitality- no tv, no fridge, no microwave, strange smell in room, paper-thin walls, some vague and unofficial "quiet time" that meant NO NOISE at all from the paying customers after either 8, 9 or 10pm. No staff AT ALL on site after 9pm, no assigned parking and the onsite bar patrons would TAKE YOUR PARKING while at dinner. Terrible stay, do not recommend

The OTIS is an awesome addition to the Harbor Springs area! Not only is it beautiful and well-decorated, but it’s comfortable, the staff are so kind and attentive, and the little details are thoughtful. The rooms are cute, the beds are comfy and we couldn’t have been happier with our stay! We were a little caught off-guard with our room not having a TV or mini fridge, but we made the best of it. And the bar is literally world-class! Just overall a 10/10 experience.

I like the closeness to Harbor Springs. The Bar area was cozy and the bartenders were friendly. I enjoy their conversations. The amenities were good. I’d like to have a tv in my room. I wish that breakfast options were available.

The hotel was very nice. We pretty much had it to our self since it’s off season. Pool won’t be ready until summer. Cafe not available after certain hour or on Monday. I wish there was a continental breakfast included in your stay for the price. The bed was very comfortable. Awesome view of the lake.

The OTIS is an awesome addition to the Harbor Springs area! Not only is it beautiful and well-decorated, but it’s comfortable, the staff are so kind and attentive, and the little details are thoughtful. The rooms are cute, the beds are comfy and we couldn’t have been happier with our stay! We were a little caught off-guard with our room not having a TV or mini fridge, but we made the best of it. And the bar is literally world-class! Just overall a 10/10 experience.

Can't say enough about the atmosphere in this mid century hotel. They have a deck and indoor area for drinks and small plates. The common area was very comfortable and full of games, books, tables, sofas, fireplace and tables. Breakfast food choices are a handful of options and fantastic coffee. Only drawback was couldn't get the tv to sync with smart phone, so no tv. The individual a/c unit was extremely loud and never got cooler than 75. Great location, rural yet a 14 minute drive to downtown Harbor Springs and close to the tunnel of trees.

Very nice common areas. Restaurant, bar, patio, all nice. Room was just OK. Nothing in the area in terms of shopping or even walking. This in a rural, but scenic area.

It was the little touches from the personalized note to wonderful selections of beverages and snacks in my room. The dinner menu, though brief, had variety. I had a new item, ricotta on sour dough toast.........it was delicious. The staff were very friendly and attentive, I will be sure to recommend.
