We chose this motel because of the reviews here. This is a place with personality; that of course can mean most anything but we mean it in the best possible way. Old with lots of wood, a phone booth size bathroom but clean and comfortable, right on the water, close to everything. And the manager Paula is totally perfect in... More

We stayed at this motel the last week in July 2011 for 4 nights. The room was absolutely spotless. While packing the car for a road trip, I saw a room being cleaning. Everything was scrubbed (including the window tracts). I have to admit that I was impressed. The rate was fantastic. Paula was wonderful. She was very friendly, helpful... More

Has kind of a log cabin feel on the inside. The room wasn't huge, but big enough. The place is older, but very clean. The clerk was friendly and helpful and arranged for us a free shuttle ride to the casino. The place is located steps away from the lake. Basic cable, small microwave, no wifi, no phone, no hair...

Stayed here 2 days on our annual UP color tour. We had an end room so we had a great view of the bay. The room was clean and comfortable (the exception was our coffe cups which were not clean) No phone - no wifi - and the TV had just the basic cable. That said - Paula is more... More

A great motel, good location (right on the lake), super nice clerk (Paula), and the price could not be beat! The only drawback was no hair dryer in the room (although Paula gave me a loaner), and no free continental breakfast. But, all in all, we would definitely stay there again!

We booked the Bay View based on the reviews here. The promise of a clean room with a beautiful view was definitely fulfilled, and I want to add that the bed was very comfy and the hot water was never ending. We stayed here on the weekend AFTER Labor Day, so it was quieter than normal, I'm sure, but there... More

We just completed our 3rd Labor Day Mackinac Bridge Walk and always stay here. The place is small, maybe 24 rooms, but very clean with good prices. Paula is the manager and is super organized and professional. This motel and is not open in the winter. It is right on Lake Huron and has a sandy beach with beautiful sunrises,... More

Very nice and clean and the rates are reasonble. I'd recommend staying here while visiting MacKinac island. The view is also very nice from the front of the rooms. There are table and chairs and you can relax sitting outside of the room enjoying the view. The lady running the place is very courteous, friendly and helpful. We had a... More

This motel has its own sandy cove beach. Yesterday evening, some of the other guests and I sat around a campfire on the beach and watched the moon rise over Lake Huron, with the sky bright with stars. The campfire is close enough to the water's edge to hear the sound of water lapping gently on the shore. Earlier in... More
