Easy access, outdated but clean. The toilet is for a small children and the shower was cold water in the morning. I don't believe the hot water tank can supplement the facility.

You can do better.
Really cramped bathroom. Motel probably built in 50s or 60s. Dated, timeworn. Not beachfront, could barely see the lake through trees. Very small breakfast area with meager offerings. Only eggs offered were hard boiled, no meat, no fruit. Killed a roach that was crawling on the ceiling of our room.

The hotel was clean and a great location. I had a view of Lake Huron from my balcony and access from the hotel. The rooms are a little outdated and could use some TLC, but once again very clean and relatively comfortable. For the price point I thought it was a great stay and would stay again if in the area.

This was the cleanest hotel I have stayed at. They take pride in their property, even though it might be a little dated. Beautiful views. Saw an elk.

Some quirks but definitely worth the stay!
A lovely older motel with wooden balcony views of Lake Huron and beach access a very short walk from the motel. Things were clean but slightly sparse (coverlets were too short, but at the end of my stay, I found another blanket in the drawer, which I'd wished I'd known about earlier! :-). The mini shampoo provided wasnt enough for my hair and left it waxy feeling. No conditioner. Soap bar felt waxy on my skin too...(Just notes for how to improve, but certainly did NOT mar my stay there at all!) I loved sitting on the wooden balcony chairs provided to watch the freighters move through the lake. The sliding glass door didn't lock and the makeshift jambing system didn't either, so check this before you leave the room. For a single woman, I felt a bit unsafe at night as a result. The staff, especially Katie, were really lovely, friendly and kind! I would recommend anyone on a budget renting here. Breakfast is continental and I think there was an indoor pool on site too. Overall, I was very happy with my stay and would come back again!

The property was very nice and right on the beach. There was a deck off our room could sit and enjoy the scenery and the night cool air. There was also a bike trail near the beach and benches to sit on and ejoy the lake. Employees were all very nice and made sure everyday if there was anything we needed.Very helpful with any questions we had I sure would stay there again.
