8/10 Very Good! (782 reviews)

Overall a really cool spot. The hotel is immaculately clean. Beds were comfortable. The grounds are beautiful. There is a lot to do outside of just golfing. My only complaint is that our hallway smelled of cigarette smoke. Every room has a balcony or patio. You could tell people were on the balconies smoking. Our room didn't smell or anything like that so a very minor issue.

8.8/10 Excellent! (3 reviews)

Compact with everything we needed (but no shampoo or shower gel). Only a 10 minute walk from the ferry terminal which is a big plus (no parking worries). Our only negative was the loud noise of the fridge compressor overnight.

Discover the most popular places to visit in Northern Lower Peninsula

In my much younger and foolish days, I would downhill ski at Caberfae (Cadillac, MI) and Snow Snake

Boyne Mountain

Hit the slopes in Boyne Falls with a visit to Boyne Mountain. Wander the lakeside or discover the mountain views in this family-friendly area.

Silver Lake State Park

If a restful vacation is part of your travel plans, Silver Lake State Park might be the perfect place to seek out during your trip to Mears. While you're in the area, wander around the parks.

So many options! Choose your own toppings. Can you tell maple bacon is my favorite? I believe this is a franchise from Pittsburgh. There are two locations in Michigan - Portage and Traverse City.

Front Street

During your visit to Traverse City, you can browse for the perfect souvenirs at Front Street. Stroll along this family-friendly area's beaches, or simply enjoy its restaurants.
