Easiest check-in and check-out experiences ever! There were four of us traveling together and we appreciated the spaciousness of the suite. If you are looking to catch a sea plane to Isle Royale National Park I highly recommend staying a D's Base Camp the night before.

Last minute reservation so a much larger “room” than expected. Three beds/two bath apartment. Perfect for a large family or a group of friends. Bring food! Some good restaurants around but a ways away. Very reasonably priced, very clean where it mattered. The unit we selected happened to be above a garage which we didn’t mind but the stairway smelled a tiny bit of normal garage smells. Inside we didn’t notice at all.

The bathrooms were clean and well stocked with towels. The bedding was good. The pans in the kitchen were unusable as the teflon coating was badly disintegrating. I had planned on making breakfast before we left.

The kitchen was fully equipped with stove, pots, pans, utensils, plates, cups, bowls... Everything you would need to prepare and eat a full home cooked meal. Fridge worked and was clean as were the rest of the appliances. Beds were clean with clean linens. Same with the bathrooms which were fully stocked with washcloths and towels. I would stsy here again if needed.

Great for All Purposes

D’s Base Camp caters more to adventurers, whilst we simply needed a reasonably priced place to stay overnight for college move-in weekend. With that said, you really can’t go wrong with multiple rooms, bathrooms, and kitchen. Will be looking to stay here again the next time we’re in town.
