We’ve stayed here 3 years now and have enjoyed our stay. Nice beach, clean hotel. Like all of the hotels in Traverse City, the prices keep rising. It’s getting harder to stay more than a few days. Great hotel, would definitely recommend.

Loved this hotel. We had a balcony overlooking the bay with 2 chairs and a table. The breakfast area was very nice. We even watched the World Cup soccer game in that room with other guests. Had plenty of chairs on the private beach and they provided towels.

The rooms were clean. But it is very loud!! You can hear everything in the hallways and above you!! The breakfast is terrible!! Will not ever stay there again. The best part is the beach outside.

Not so much family welcoming hotel. Our kids kept getting scolded for being kids. Hotel is more of the older guests. Not a fan of the breakfast. There was just bagels/cream cheese, waffle station, cereal, yogurt.. no hot food 😕

Beautiful facility, nice rooms, and a fantastic beachfront location. Breakfast is very basic. In-room coffee supplies are limited. No daily housekeeping. But if you want a great view over the lake, a comfortable room, and a convenient location - this place is for you.
