“Mixed Feelings”

The location is beautiful overlooking the hills and lake as long as you are on the south side of the hotel. People were freindly, rooms were adequate, but overal maintenance of the facility is really lacking. Metal roof flashing swinging in the breeze, wood rotting, and a few ants crawling across the bedroom floor definately detract from the surrounding beauty. Drunk teenagers out front of the lobby one evening offering my wife and I marijuana kinda put the icing on the cake (just spoiled kids the parents let get away with too much). But, we made the best of it since it was a short 2 day stay in that location with last minute planning. Hotel staff (Michael at the restuarant) was very freindly, and helpful. The hotel seemed to show only 5 or 6 rooms available, but for as big as this place is, and as few people that were there, I find it hard to believe this was not just a marketing ploy It did seem to fill up when we checked out Friday. I should add that this did have the largest and most well equipped fittness center of any hotel I have been to with respect to nautilus and free weights.

Area recommendations
We rented a waverunner by the dockside restaurant (where clam lake and torch lake connect) and toured Torch lake on the west side where the water is calm. It was amazing, the white sand and cystal blue water look like the carribean. Also be sure to visit Traverse City and take in all the shops and great restaurants. The town of Alden was a quaint community on the water as well.

“Wonderful, would definitely return.”

Shanty Creek Summit Lodge was a great vacation place. Easy travel to other great locations like Travers City and the upper peninsula. The restaurant was one of the best in the area and the rooms were comfortable, clean and well equipped. We spent a relaxing week here and would definitely return for another vacation. The golf courses were beautiful and geocaches were ample. There are even hotel private geocaches not published on the website.

Area recommendations
Visit Torch Lake and enjoy the Caribbean like clear waters. Traverse City for a great downtown and casino. The Town of Bellaire for cute shops and bike/hiking paths.
Dining
Avoid the Dockside. Poor quality food/service. Everywhere else we ate was delightful with the best being the restaurant at the Shanty Creek Summit Lodge.

“Luxurious landscape, but not-so-luxurious service, amenities, facilities”

After challenging arrival at guest registration and quite a journey to find my room in one of the many buildings at the complex, there wasn't a soul in sight to assist with luggage. The guest room was clean, had a comfortable bed, and a balcony with table and chairs (nice place to have AM coffee). The need for a 'whole-resort' update could have been overlooked if resort personnel had been welcoming....maybe Shanty Creek is too big to make a better 'first impression' on short-stay guests.

“A Great Getaway from your Busy Life...”

Shanty Creek was such a lovely place that I sent them a thank you card. The staff was over accomodating and kind. The golf course (The Legend) was so beautiful. I'm so excited to go back this summer during the season. We had breakfast in front of enormous windows and our waitress was so enjoyable to talk to. Our room had a great balcony overlooking Schuss Mountain. Lastly, our bed was very comfortable! This is a great place to stay.

Nightlife
You have to take the shuttle and check out Shorts Brewery. It's only a few miles away. Great food, great beer and a wonderful atmosphere!
Other
For a VERY hard run--run The Legend course! About 4.5 miles with LOTS of hills!

“Very impressed!”

This was the first time we had stayed there since the rennovation and we went there to see what had been done. We weren't disappointed - everything was beautiful. While some very minor details remain, this is once again a first class place to stay.

“Nice Place”

Nice place, had fun swimming & golfing. I would like to see how it looks in the winter as it opens as a ski resort. The selection of restaurants is minimal at the resort & in the town of Bellaire. One must make the 40 mile trip ( one way ) to Traverse City for more places to eat & at a lesser cost.

“Beautiful view and awesome staff!”

When we arrived at the hotel we were informed that the room was not reserved for a pet we brought along. The hotel staff was extremely helpful and found us a room inside the hotel (even though it was not pet friendly as we were previously told by phone) for both of us and our small pet. The staff went out of their way to make our stay comfortable and stress-free!

Traveler's tip
You have to visit the Sleepy Bear Dunes and Moomer's Ice Cream!
