- Review: I'm so excited we chose to stay here. Not only was the price point solid, but the quality of our stay was wonderful and left us well rested. The bed was super comfortable, showers were hot with great water pressure, it was quiet early in the night even with it on a main road, clean and well cared for, and the location was perfect for getting around. We even ran late and the front desk had a plan in case we missed them to check in. Will absolutely stay again., by Lindzy, September 20, 2024, rated 10/10 Excellent

It is setback off of the water some, but the property is literally right on the Lake Huron beach. Easy walk from the room to the beach. The Up North 23 restaurant is right next-door. Beautiful outside dining with a lake view. Got one meal to go from there and they catered to me every step of the way since my dog was not actually allowed inside. The hotel was typical, with a..., by Paul, August 26, 2024, rated 10/10 Excellent
