“Safe and Sound”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2011

If you keep driving past the town you'll come across the Arcadian Motel. Much more affordable than a room in the busy town and close enough to town that it's still convenient. It's right off the highway but far enough back so the traffic at night doesn't disturb your sleep!
The owners Grandson checked us in when we arrived late and without a reservation at 11:00PM. He was efficient, answered my questions and was kind as can be. The room was a blast from the past and had a cozy old timey feeling, just right for the U.P atmosphere that we were seeking. Nice quiet and peaceful location, slept like a baby!
The room was clean and there was plenty of hot water, a tv with cable and a small fridge. The next morning the owners sat out coffee, juice and cinnamon rolls and muffins! A nice treat! There were sightseeing brochures in the office and the owner came out and talked to us and gave us a few tips.

We enjoyed our time here so much that we ended up staying a second night! Would stay again in a heartbeat!

“A little too quiet”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 September 2010

Upon arrival, one of the extended stay intoxicated construction workers called my wife a "white trash biker". Luckily I was not there and she did not tell me about it until later. On vacation with friends. Sitting on front lawn enjoying the nice weather in the "early" evening, talking, laughing and just having a relaxed, good time. Owner came out and told us to quiet down. We eventually were told to go to our rooms because the owners were afraid we would bother someone. Only ones bothered were us. Owners were very nice but this is a place for someone who wants to sleep and nothing else.

“Clean and inexpensive.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2010

They now have free wireless internet and its fast. I stayed here recently and I enjoyed my stay. They were closed for the 2009 winter months. I think they reopened in March. (July 2010)

“Excellent, Low Priced Motel.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 November 2009

Next time I go up north I will stay at the Arcadian Motel ,its quiet,clean and cheap. The owners are very kind. The only thing I didn't like is they didn,t have wireless internet. I could not use my wireless laptop. I told the owner and he said he is in the process of getting it. This motel is my first choice and my second choice the White house Motel in Mohawk. There is very little to choose from in the Calumet area,most have closed up due to the economy. In Sept,2009 the Arcadian owner said he was closing for the winter and would reopen in the spring.

“Perfect little motel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 September 2009

We have stayed here on numerous trips to the U.P. and we LOVE it! The rooms have always been clean on every trip! I know this motel is for sale, and I hope when new owners take over they wont change a thing about this place!
