Nicely updated and clean

With a bit of a rough start as our air conditioner wasn't working, this was a great stay. The modern updates really make this place nice. Maintenance staff was awesome getting the air going, the room was clean, bright and inviting, and beakfast delicious. A bit off the beaten path, this was a perfect place to stay for a quick yooper adventure.

Room was nice, TV was not working. Breakfast taste good, however they gave us a menu at check in with multiple options but only 1 choice at breakfast. Could have been because it was off season.

This was a random find as we were looking for a pit stop in between camping spots in the UP. We ended up booking an extra night due to the bugs and my family being tired of camping. This place was so nice, our view was stunning, breakfast was free and fantastic, the beds were very comfy, and my kids fought over top bunk in our family suit. The managers and staff were so friendly and gave us plenty of places to explore and enjoy locally plus free ski lift rides! We didn’t expect to stay and enjoy it as much as we did but now we are planning another stay later this year in the “off season” and I hope to get back again in winter to check out all their runs between the two hills.

An economical stay at a property in the UP! The resort is older, so expect some peeling paint and refurbishing. Location is great with access to hiking, waterfalls and the Porkies.

The name of the hotel was not the same on our confirmation, sign by the highway, or on the building. Must have changed names without changing signage three times. They had a fisg and fetch event on july 5th from 5 to 8 to ride the chairlift. We arrived at 540pm and they were done. Room was not cleaned daily and shower never got warm. One high point was the breakfast waitress was awesome and sauna got plenty hot.

I paid full price in spring. There were no employees to be found. The one kind employee, Joey, eventually made it to the front desk after I called the remote reservations number. Joey was apologetic. The parking lot is a disaster. Other than Joey and the fact that the room I stayed in was very nice, the bar was not attended the breakfast hours were not convenient, and as I described previously, it was a ghost town. Never again.
