Great Stay
I honestly wish I could've stayed more than 1 night! Very comfortable room and bed. Bathroom mat seem small to some, but didn't bother me. I've been on the road for several days & that was the best tv/cable I'd had the whole trip!! Definitely will stay again if I have a need to

Tub not jetted
The stay was very good. Clean and comfortable. The tub was not jetted as advertised which was one of the reasons we pick to stay here.

I wasnt able to stay. Was supposed to be a fishing trip. The captain canceled the trip becauae of the weather. They would not refund the cost because it was two hours past the time to receive a refund. They refused to consider any refund. I feel it is a horrible business decision.

The room we stayed in was nice enough, no issues. Feel like it was an issue to have extra pillows or towels. I'm not sure if there has been a high level of theft or what, but it was odd to me. The place in general was pretty run down, and the playground would probably be better removed. There were more people actually living there than I expected. We were not there for long or much, there were no negative interactions, just was surprised.

We had family camping less than 4 miles away. Loved the convenience and location of the motel. And, the rate was very fair. Having coffee available in the office long after the breakfast times were over was really appreciated.

Our experience was very negative. When we arrived later at night, we checked in through a glass window outside. When we got to our room, there were people roaming around by it. Our room smelled musky and was not fully clean. After checking the room, we noticed the windows did not lock, so we did not feel safe. We left the motel that night. When contacting the manager in the morning to cancel the rest of our reservation, he was very rude on the phone. He said there was a policy that he would not cancel weekend dates, but then refused to send the policy through email or tell us where to find the policy. He then said this policy is his own policy and that he tells people on the phone when they book with him. Fortunately, Expedia helped us to get refunded for one of the three nights we paid for.

Hello Morgan, You had to vheck in yhru the night registration window because you checked kn at mid night (you were made aware of this late check in procedure before hand). Could you please elobarate on how the room was not fully cleaned, because we inspected the room before check in made sure bed was made properly, all the funiture had been dusted, the bathroom had been cleaned throughly, and the carpet had been properly vaccumed. We would like to know what exactly it was that was not "fully cleaned". As for the cancellation policy, as you mentioned you booked the room thru Expedia, they would be the ones to send you a confirmation email along with the cancellation policy (It was would have to stated while you made the reservation). All the windows lock perfectly, if you had reachef out to us we would have showed you how to lock it. As for the people, we are a hotel and we do typically have guests staying with us(just like you did).

Low expectations, but it turned out very nice and clean little hotel. They even had some kind of a breakfast bananas, bagels, serial. Other hotels would advertise this as breakfast. This hotel didn't, so it was a nice surprise.

The people running it are excellent. Very nice and quick responders. When we checked in the door lock didn't work properly so needed disassembly for access to reprogram it. They were Johnny on the spot with this. It's a bit of an old place but the inside of our room was nice and very clean. Very quiet. An affordable alternative to South Haven's over priced hotel scene.

Went for a wedding
We went for a wedding and didn't want to pay 300.00 per night at the other hotels. This hotel fit our need. It is a 2 star so don't expect 3 when you book this. There is always someone on staff and they're quick to respond to your needs. I was surprised on how good the lobby coffee was. This has easy access to main roads too.

Last minute solo trip. Good experience. Roo. Was available early. Friendly service. Room was very clean. Some outdated decor but I expected. Its an 'up north' type place. Clean was my concern before booking and I found it to be clean. Thanks for a great experience!
