Dining in the lounge is phenomenal!! The food is world class and the atmosphere is delightful. Well worth a trip for dinner and cocktails alone. As to rooms, our room (32) shared a wall with the front office so we awoke to classic rock radio blaring through in the early am. The room had undergone a cute retro renovation that could its origi that the
There was no food at this location during our stay - would have been nice to know that ahead of time. Had to go 10 minutes into town for every meal, including breakfast. Also, very low pressure water made showers and toilet flushing interesting. Nice mid-century vibe.
It is incredible what can be done with a 1950s motel. This place was a retro-modern sanctuary. I actually can't say enough nice things! 100% will stay there again!
The place is wonderful, the staff is very friendly, and make you feel like at home. The dinner was fantastic. The surrounded area is beautiful and very well located to Harbor Springs, Tunnel of Trees, and other nice attractions. We really enjoyed our visit, and looking forwrat to our next visit. Congrats OTIS and the whole team..!!!
