We loved the close proximity to Pictured Rocks and it’s a very short drive to the beach, which was nice.

Cute hotel, not sure why theres so many negative comments the only thing that didnt work was the TV which was completely fine. Its also a 3ish minute walk from the beach which is perfect considering the price

This is a small family run property. The property is worn but the UP is brutal on properties. This is a great location between two larger towns with things to do. The room was small but had everything we needed for a quick trip. We spent the days exploring so it was a great space to crash at night. The fridge and microwave were a nice addition to the room. No frills but nicely put together and comfortable.

If you need a minimalistic, clean, simple, no frills, place to stay that is an excellent value and located close to everything, this is a great place. We loved the store next door, they literally have everything one could need, and prepare really good fresh pasty's that are hot and ready and deli sandwiches. It is a mini grocery store, they have non ethanol premium on the pump. I was very happy with our stay there. The owners and employees are very kind people as well.

I never write reviews because I understand that people have different levels of likes- I am not a fancy girl- Im mostly interested in cost effective options so I can manage low expectations- the mattress at the hotel was honestly worst then camping on a rock pile - I can look past the dumpster furniture, the tv smaller then my computer screen - but a mattress that has no barrier between me and the springs is where I draw the line -

National park conveniently close. Motel could use deadbolt on exterior door for safety. Windows needed lock replaced. Room ok but refrigerator was broken smelled awful if opened. Would not recommend a stay during warmer months.
