We stayed here only for one night & wished we could have stayed longer. It was such a quaint town and beyond peaceful and quiet. The property's furniture and decorations were out of date and we felt like we were stepping back in time. But for the money and a peaceful getaway, it was perfect. Theres a small downtown to... More

We just headed out of the city running away from everything for the night and ended up at the point of the thumb in Port Austin . Lake Vista Resort looked nice so we checked in..Got the room at the end by the water ground floor..rather reminded us of Ireland with the homey feel of a cottage..not the normal sterile... More

My husband and I stayed at the Lake Vista Resort as a mini-honeymoon & it served as the perfect getaway. We stayed in one of the second floor suites & it was very spacious & clean. I've read other peoples' reviews that mention the 'Rules' offending them and I think they need to just pull out their sense of humor... More

Everywhere you look, there are fake flowers, plastic flamingos, signs with cliches such as "it's five o' clock somewhere," and ash trays--so many ash trays! Pretty tacky. The rooms were clean and smoke-free, but the towels were small, thin, and rough. The bathmat was a cheap, multicolored, woven patio mat. My laptop could not keep a wireless internet signal for...

We booked the end room: # 16 which has a fabulous view of the lake from a charming sun room that is done up in soft greens with a stylish tile floor. My husband and I spent much of our time on the huge deck watching the water and birds and the sky. It was the perfect place for us,... More

My wife and I were pleasantly surprised with the resort. Our purpose to the area was to enjoy The Farm Restraunt. After arriving to the resort the resort became the focal point. The resort is everything that we expected from a small town that has not been consumed by the chain hotels, restraunts, and strip malls. The owners take pride... More

Very expensive for what we got. Average clean, but carpet throughout the room right into the bathroom with small 'scatter' rugs everywhere to trip on. Thought the carpet in bathroom was gross. Rule book, complete with passive/aggressive threats, was humorous but will follow my credit card to see if I didn't clean up to their standards. Lawn furniture was moldy,... More

Location: Lake Vista Resort, Port Austin, Michigan We have been coming back to Port Austin, Michigan for the last 10 years. We began our stay at the Lake Vista Resort 5 years ago and can't imagine staying anywhere else! First of all there are the owners of the resort Mary and Ron. Both are hard workers and I have never...

We stayed in one of the luxury waterfront suites. You have to climb a pretty steep flight of stairs to get there, but the view of the bay is wonderful. The room was spacious and clean, but nothing all that exciting. It did have a full size fridge and microwave which was nice because dining options are pretty limited in... More

We reserved the 2nd floor waterfront resort suite and had a wonderful time. The view of the lake from our lakeside windows was just spectacular. The room was very spacious and the full bath/shower was a huge bonus. With a family of 5, we had plenty of space and then some. A full-size refrigerator and microwave were a huge perk... More
