The room was incredibly comfortable, clean and the jacuzzi was great! I ordered from the restaurant and i have to tell you the salmon was the best I've had in a restaurant!!
Went way up and beyond expectations Lisa was very helpful so is Veronica how it was a good person he was very knowledgeable and helpful all in all man best hotel I think around this area
Loved your hotel, thank you for the upgrade, just wish the weather was a little warmer to really enjoy the patio and awesome view of the lake. Will be returning again. Room was very nice and clean.,
We have book a spa room for the last 4 years. My birthday is in January and always cold. The staff is great. Restaurant on site for dinner and great breakfast bar. It’s a wonderful place visit in the summer but also well worth the off season stay.
Front desk staff is very friendly and welcoming. Rooms are clean and nice. They are an updated bit classic look which makes it very unique and cozy. The jacuzzi tub is great. The balcony is roomy with a beautiful view. The on property restaurant is fantastic. We will definitely come back. So glad we found this place.

The staff was very nice and we enjoyed dinner at the restaurant. The room was large and clean. However, the floors above our room were squeaky and noisy, the breakfast was so-so and could use an upgrade to non-styrofoam cups and bowls, etc.
Very pleasant stay. Everything was quaint but clean. If the hotel would invest in new pillows, towels and bedding it would have made for a nicer stay, but what we had was sufficient and met the needs of our one night stay as we traveled to upstate Michigan.
Such a great stay! Everyone is so nice and helpful; offering suggestions of restaurants, wineries, things to do in the area. We are bringing a group of friends back at the end of the month; loved our stay!
We arrived late from Chicago Ohare and the staff was welcoming and informative on the services. But noise from street loud.
Cute hotel right off the lake!
