8/10 Very good

Clean room. Rustic ambience.

Really enjoyed this place. Great location. What makes it fun is the outdoor area. You can fish off the docks. Take a kayak or canoe out on the lake. Have a campfire. Relax in the hammock. All included..very very cool place. Down the road is Carla's Cozy Inn. Excellent fresh fish. Typical UP friendly atmosphere

I wish I would have had more time to hang out at the property because it's gorgeous but it was perfect for a quick night's sleep. The bed was very comfortable. The room smelled a little musty but was clean.

2/10 Poor

Unacceptable

Place should be condemned,stunk,rooms are outdated with extension cords running things,smelled like pot cause owners grandson smoked with everyone that checked in then after he came back from the bar rode a motorcycle through the parking lot late at night waking us up,left a day early cause of conditions

Terrell, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location. Pet friendly. On the lake. Kayak's/Canoes to use. Places to hangout outside. Room was good. Beds okay. Bathroom needs a bit of updates but like the funky blue tile. Tip to other travelers, theres no blow dryer and the outlet in bathroom is on the light and its a pull string. Water takes a bit to get hot bit once it does its boiling. Shower is small but doable. Bring your own shampoo and conditioner. They have packets, not good. Manager laid back. You won't be hassled. Might not be overly friendly but check in was easy.
Danielle, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

We had a bad start to our visit. We were unaware that the motel had 2 floors and that our room would be on the second floor. The door to the stairway which was the only access to that floor not easy to find and the stairway was difficult for us to carry our things up (we are both in our early 80s). We also had our dog and taking him out from the second floor especially after dark was another issue. When we got to the room we found about 20+ dying flies on the front windowsills inside. There was no one in the office and so we cleaned them up ourselves. The property is old and not well kept up which probably was responsible for the fly problem. Someone seemed to have treated the area so that the flies were dying but had not followed up to take care of the area. Other than that the room was clean and the bed was clean and comfortable. The weather was warm and so we turned on the air conditioner but it was so noisy we decided not to use it. There may have been breakfast items but my husband couldn’t find anything ready for us and so we decided to go elsewhere for breakfast. The very reasonable price was similar to other motels in the wider area that we stayed in that welcomed pets but the others have been much better cared for. We wouldn’t go to this property again unless it improves a lot.

Craig, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This was a cute little off the road place but the rustic cuteness that we like for the UP of Michigan. Other than a small leak, where there was a spot of wet carpet, the bed was comfortable. The TV was good and a clean shower was all we needed. Price was fair as well.

Awesome...never bothered lots of boats to take out for free...nice grill...fire pit...and games 😀
Tina, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

This property is conveniently located. The check in process was nice and it was a quiet place to settle. The outside area had a nice ambiance with a fire pit, docks, kayaks to use and a place to sit near the water. The beds were comfortable and the room was cozy. There was a mildew/mold smell in the room that was helped by turning the air conditioner on.
