This place is a gem. It’s unlike any other lodging we’ve ever stayed in, with retro 50s-60s charm balanced by modern comforts & conveniences. Our room was spacious, immaculate, and cheery, and the Amish bed was super comfortable. Parking was right outside our door, and we loved sitting in the shared patio area a few steps away. Steve is a gracious and affable host, and the Groovy! Groovy! Gift Gallery has items we’d never found in other places but knew we needed :) The Pines Motorlodge is just a short walk from amazing restaurants, shops, and art galleries. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

We were in Michigan for a special event. Like all places, rates go up significantly for big events. I found this motel. It looked nice and was value priced. It was nice. It was really clean, the location was great for our needs. It was the beginning of the season so were very few people in Douglas. We really enjoyed the area. The beds were comfy. My only complaint was no maid service. I did not expect any but for 3 nights it would have been nice to have the trash taken out. The rooms were cute. Steve was very accommodating. A good place to stay.
