It was extremely clean and right across from Lake Erie. The property is beautiful although the bathroom in our room was tiny. The staff was friendly and helpful.

We very much enjoyed our stay. We were eloping at the lighthouse and the staff got our room ready for us early and even put a sign in the lobby for us. The bed was very comfortable. We want to stay again.

Nice place but trying to check in was a nightmare. We booked 3 rooms and only one was self-check in but was then given to another guest. After our experience I will not book another stay.

Staff was amazing. Negatives are amenities: bathroom sink ridiculously small and no other mirror to apply makeup etc., and can’t use toilet seat for space as there’s no lid, no coffeemaker, no guide for TV, 2 drinks at the outdoor bar came to $50 with tip, very nice upscale property. I would expect better

Brand new clean and well located property near the Marblehead Lighthouse. Expensive for basically a roadside modern motel. Beds are platform beds low to the ground and seating likewise very low to the ground and uncomfortable. Bar/dining closed during my stay. No coffee maker or microwave in room.
