This was my second trip to the Crest. The first experiece was good so I booked it again. Same circumstances while traveling on motorcycles from NC. I always use Tripadvisor when planning trips! I had read recent reviews of rudeness and just no personal skills whatsoever. It was four couples and we all had called to make seperate reservations, over... More

nice view of the lake, access to road is easy...walk around downtown ashland--it's cute--lots of coffeeshops and a nice indy bookstore. family-run place...clean enough and we liked the way they arranged the two queen beds. but the AC noise is ridiculous/whistling. woke us both up several times...

We were heading to a show at Big Top Chautauqau and needed a place to stay for one night. It is impossible to find a place in Bayfield or Washburn where you can stay for one night, on a weekend, in summer. The Crest turned out to be a great option. It is a small, family run place. It has... More

While I would agree with many reviews that the motel was 'no frills and clean', I would have to alert potential travelers that the AC in our room was unbearably loud. We could not have a conversation with each other and ultimately had to pack up and leave that very night. This was after trying to sleep after a long... More

This motel is set out like little cabins, with a settee and chair, TV, fridge and microwave, plus the usual. Everything is clean and tidy and the view of Lake Superior is fantastic from each 'cabin'. The Internet was dodgy for the first night but that was resolved and we had no problems after that. The owner is very friendly... More

Beautiful view of Lake Superior. Clean rooms. Very friendly and accomodating service. We originally were going to check out on Thursday, but decided to extend our stay a day, then two, then three. The owners were very accomodating during a very busy time for them. They found a way to have us stay three nights longer. We had to move... More

I was tired and didn't want to drive all the way back to Madison so checked into the Crest. I have stayed there before and knew they had HBO and WIFI. Nice and clean basic room. The best part is the view of the bay. I had a nice sunset. I think it's a good value and the bathroom was... More

The room was very clean. Crisp clean linens and the bathroom had been recently updated and was very clean. The price of the room was really good compared to other places in the area. We went to sight see - not spend a fortune on a hotel room. So, this was a very pleasant surprise. We read the other reviews... More

We would have stayed a second night, but only available room, a suite, was too close to the highway! They have a great front yard for kids to play. Picnic tables meant we didn't have to eat in our room--very nice. Rooms are large. TV is old fashioned, cable is really comprehensive, bed were comfortable. Our room had a small... More
