Ausstattung

Einfache Annehmlichkeiten am See wie ein kleiner Strand, eine Feuerstelle, Rasenspiele und Liegestühle werden vielfach gelobt. Die Parkplätze befinden sich direkt an den Zimmern, und das Motel ist haustierfreundlich, aber ansonsten sind die Annehmlichkeiten begrenzt und der Eiswürfelautomat war unzuverlässig.

This unpretentious motel provided a very comfortable stay. Conveniently close to some good restaurants, ice cream shops, and ferries to Mackinac Island. A grill and corn hole are available, and there is a lovely little beach with lounge chairs and fire pit. Beds were comfortable, and room was spotless. Great stay!

Great little motel. Not many amenities but hey it's a family run motel, not a chain hotel. View is amazing. Firepit next to water is a great add. Ice machine broke so go spend the $2 and get yourself a bag of ice. Please keep this motel going as yet another chain is being built next to it. About a mile away from Mackinac Island dock. Joses Cantina for dinner and Java Joes for breakfast. Will always go back to this motel when up that way.

When we take the motorcycle we like to have a parking spot right in front of the room with private entrance and no hallway. This is why we booked here. The room was ok… could have been cleaned better but it’s probably more in need of new flooring than cleaning. It was outdated but still quaint. But it is literally right on the water. Like the water was 30 feet from our window. Gorgeous, serene, and quiet. The girl at the front desk was adorable and super helpful and the landscaper was also super helpful and accommodating. He moved the picnic table right to our door so we could play cards at night while enjoying the water. There is also a fire pit and beach chairs right down in the beach. We did have a super weird guy staying next to us who was definitely a bit sketchy, but although he was annoying he was mostly harmless. We will absolutely stay here again, way prettier than mackinaw city. And the Mexican restaurant that the girl recommended when we checked in was only a two block walk and was delicious.

So, this is a very old property. That said, it is very well-maintained. I am of the mindset why not stay in a room that has knotty pine walls and mid Century modern furniture than the usual cookie cutter hotel. Parking is directly in front of your room door. It is 20 feet to walk to the lake front. It is a very nice walk up and down the lakeshore. There are geese and other water birds fishing in the morning, people with their dogs running along the shallows. Just the sort of vibe I want an old Lake town. Of note, it is much easier to get on the ferries in St. Ignace than Mackinaw City.

We had to wait for someone to check us in. When we got to the room it was still dirty. Came back later, Tv didn’t work . Room was discussing . Afraid to take my shoes off. Shower looked like something in a campground. Bed was comfortable, looks like they are trying to up date, but they should definitely wait till they are done. We were in room 10. Pretty scary, floors weren’t swept, spiders and cob webs in the bathroom! Young gentleman that checked us in was nice! Wouldn’t have stayed a second night if it was free!

Will never recommend or stay again. Seagull poop all over outside motel area.

My girl and I took a family trip to explore the area. This was the cheapest we could find at the time, and it sort of lived up to its price-point. No problems at check-in, the staff are very friendly and accomodating. As soon as I walked into the room, I was blasted with humidity. They had not run the A/C to dehumidify the room. There was clearly mildew in the carpet, so I asked for a change of room, which the staff happily accomodated so that they could later rebook the room, as I found out. The second room was cleaner, but the bathroom had at least 3 spiders that didn't bother me. At least the microwave and mini-fridge worked. The bed sheets were clean and very comfprtable, but the bath towels were dirty before we even touched them. The view is really pretty and the place has its own fire ring you can use, but you have to buy your own wood. My last complaint is the angle of the drive-way, which is pretty common for many of the hotels/motels along the street. If you have a low-profile car, you have to come in at an angle to prevent scraping or else try the Quality Inn down the street.

The location of the motel is LOVELY! Right on the beach with a fire pit and set of horse shoes to play a family game. The motel itself is older and outdated, though they have made good attempts to make some upgrades to improve comfort. We felt that that the mattresses were comfortable and the room was very clean when we arrived, though it had a distinct odor of cigarettes covered by cleaning products/air freshener. That smell was persistent through our entire 4 day trip though. The owner of the motel was very kind and helpful and she was great to work with (as the WiFi had broken the day before our arrival due to technical difficulties) and she tried multiple times to help find a work around for us to gain access. The bathroom is VERY SMALL and dated and could use an upgrade. The smoke detector was off the ceiling and in a drawer (probably the previous tenant who was smoking inside didn’t want to set it off) and the furniture was old and damaged. All in all, we enjoyed our stay as a base camp for many day trips, but if we had to spend any more time in the room we would have grown very tired of the constant noise and cooking smells from the long term guests who were construction workers/their families staying in the motel and building another motel right next door. For the cost of the room, I feel it was a good value for our money and we would probably stay there again!

Beautiful little beach and fire pit, perfect base location to jump up to Whitefish, Pictured Rocks, Tahquamenon, or run up the road a little to grab a ferry to Mackinac Island. Fantastic stay and I'll be back!

Definitely wouldn’t recommend this motel to anyone! No lightning at night and the guy that checked us in said that he was closing the office and then stated we’d have to walk to the Baymont if we needed anything, which essentially meant “Good luck, try not to die” pics display everything you need to know about their “premium” room.

Everything about my stay was great. I've never had anyone call me to ask about my arrival time and I definitely appreciated that Kara stayed up late to check me in.

However, I did not appreciate the apparent bonfire party basically right outside my room that went on for a couple hours after I got there.

We had a beautiful Lake view, our room was so clean and practically laid out for a pack and play, and we were close to everything we wanted to see. We fell in love with the area and can’t wait to stay here again. Everyone is so nice here and the staff is great. 10/10!
