Regarding the cancellation, never received a call or any communication other than a confirmation. ##### Nick ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Sep 2, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice place to stay This is a nice place to stay. Check in wasn't that difficult as in previous reviews. You just turn left at first stop sign and there is a building with a huge sign that says CHECK IN. Room was clean, beds were comfy. Yes, there is NOT alot of parking spaces, so if you get one, don't leave because it may not be there when you come back! They also have an outdoor pool which is tiny, but better than nothing I guess. We stayed here and went to Traverse City, a little bit of a hike and through winding roads. I thought it was closer so would have stayed at a closer hotel. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Alex B., Lake Orion , MI Sep 2, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Pure Michigan .. Simple nice and clean , bit outdated but with beautiful views and clean pool . I would definately recommend to friends and family.. ##### Alex B. ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jul 13, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness Room was marginal for accomodations. The decor was blase. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Corinne, Lupton, Mi. Jun 23, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### We would stay there again............... The room has some rustic furniture but the beds were comfortable and the room was clean. One of the best showers...great pressure and good water! It was nice to sit out on the porch and listen to the water fountain in the pond. If you wanted to eat.....places were nearby in the Shanty Creek complex. You do need to know that the check-in was up the hill nearer to the Lakeview Hotel. But that wasn't a problem since we got there around 3pm and someone was at the real estate place where we checked in. I understand it's at the store or such that is right near there, after 6pm. Signage could have been better as to where the Legend Cottages were...from the highway. We had no idea it was in the Shanty Creek complex. But once we found it.....things were great and it was nice to be out farther away from the highway and towns. Although the town of Bellaire is not to far from Shanty Creek. Nice quaint town. We would definitely stay at the Legend Cottages again. ##### Corinne ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ann, Davison. Mi May 26, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very nice place. Beautiful surroundings. Short stay but nice. Very quiet in the evening. The room was very modern and comfortable. ##### Ann ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller May 25, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Hotel on golf course. Clean, decent room. Shades were not adequate for morning Sun. Good deal if u include golf. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Bob Jan 2, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service #### Bad checkin experience Check in takes place half a mile up the hill at the Vacation Club Center, not at the hotel itself. If you want to check in after hours (6:00 PM), the vacation club will be closed and you need to find your key in their after hours box. None of this information was made available to us until we called the phone number on our confirmation email. When you pull into the parking lot for the welcome center, the exterior wall of the building will have two sets of french doors. Between those french doors is a welcome sign with pink trim. The welcome sign is hinged and opens like a medicine cabinet. Envelopes containing maps and room keys can be found there. It's all on the honor system, so you'd better hope nobody stole your room key. ##### Bob ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Aug 26, 2013 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### great for golfing - good restaurant relaxing and comfortable - room smelled very freshly cleaned when we first entered- the pool was relaxing- you could grill out if you wished, especially the fresh fish you might of caught in one of many nearby lakes. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### bruce, cloquet,mn Aug 26, 2013 Liked: Staff & service #### Good price for the area The area is beautiful and the town was fun. Rubber Ducky Days was fun ##### bruce ### 6/10 Okay #### Sue, Michigan Aug 19, 2013 #### Reasonable price and good location. Compared to the other hotels in the area this one was very reasonably priced. The rooms were large and comfortable without being luxurious in any way. The pool was nice. We didn't interact with the staff much since the check-in center is in another building about a quarter of a mile away. ##### Sue ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Jul 23, 2013 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not what I was expecting Pulling into the area I had high hopes for our room. Unfortunately those were destroyed when we walked in. Room was bare at best, the toilet leaked from the base and there weren't enough parking spots. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### JJM, Fort Myers, FL Jul 22, 2013 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice Place To Stay -- Recommend / Very Good Value We stayed two nights ... pleased with the room - very clean, pretty new, roomy, small refrig/microwave, beautiful golf community. We were visiting friends in the area and were just looking for a reasonably priced highly rated location - we were not disappointed. A couple wonderful golf courses in the development ... made me wish I had brought my clubs. Nice staff at check-in/out. We had a nice dinner on-site (2 block walk) at the Lake View restaurant ... wonderful view of the Lake Michigan, nice menu with reasonable pricing. Recommend this resort room ... great location close to Travis City and the other great small historical towns along the Michigan shoreline in the area. ##### JJM ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 11, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Little gem to stay at. Nice, clean room. Beautiful area. I would recommend this hotel. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Cindy, Michigan, USA Nov 7, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### Nice hotel/terrible check in/out process I was not given enough information regarding checking in and checking out. Specifically, I did not know the following: 1. The check in office was located across the road and down the street. 2. The check in office closed at 6 PM. 3. If you do not check in prior to the office closing, your key is hidden outside of the office. 4. The office did not open on the date I checked out until 10 am. I needed to leave at 9:30. I drove around and finally found someone who could tell me how to check in and where to find the keys to my room. I attempted to call the hotel and only got a voicemail to leave a message. I left a message and as of today have still not received a return call. ##### Cindy ### 10/10 Excellent #### dan, Michigan, USA Oct 22, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### great place got in late and they help me find the room asap the kids love it will be back ##### dan ### 8/10 Good #### Amelia, Texas Sep 15, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful resort property for value price This property was beautiful and close to Torch lake which was our Michigan destination. The only difficulty was locating the key for after hours check in. This is a gold resort and we would definitely return for another vacation up north. It was nice to go walking around as well. The grounds are beautifully maintained and it was very quiet as well. ##### Amelia ### 8/10 Good #### DJ, Fremont, MI Sep 11, 2012 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good value This hotel is nothing fancy but is a good value in a good location. ##### DJ ### 4/10 Poor #### Andrea, West Bloomfield, MI Aug 21, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### nice hotel room, but crummy staff This hotel is part of a vacation club, thus SEPERATE from the actual shanty creek golf resort. I had called in advance to schedule late check in, as I was planning on attending a wedding shower in bachelorette party in traverse city. The roads to navigate late at night through the shanty creek resort were horrendous, and the directions to where my keys were being held were not very clear either. Thank god for the security staff at the main shanty creek lodge who navigated me to the box at the check in center, and then to my lodge and room. The free breakfast promised to me and the other guests staying in my room was not acknowledged. They did not provide me with food vouchers. No one was at the check in center the next morning, nor did anyone respond EVER to my messages left. The room itself was fine, but expect nothing from the absent vacation club staff, and be prepared to rely on the mercy of the shanty creek resort staff to help you out. Next time I will be booking a room at the main shanty creek resort, they are a lot more helpful. ##### Andrea ### 10/10 Excellent #### David, Ann Arbor Aug 21, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place to stay. We had a great stay. Lovely surroundings, peaceful. ##### David ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cassie, PA Jul 15, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good for everyone Great area, not as crowded, wonderful amenities, makes for a very pleasant stay with great value. Very accessible to other cities in the region. ##### Cassie ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Aug 11, 2010 Liked: Cleanliness #### Alright We stayed July 24 as we have family in Bellaire. The Legend Cottage Inn was a clean place to sleep and watch television. The pool is outdoors. We usually stay at Shanty Creek which is alright too but costs about $\* more per night. Shanty Creek has an indoor pool and hottub but that, to us is not worth the additional $\* per night. One thing I didn't like is that there was no internet service. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jul 28, 2010 Liked: Cleanliness #### Just alright A couple of times per year, we go to Bellaire to visit family. There aren't many relatively inexpensive places to stay in Bellaire. Legend Cottage Inn was alright. It was clean and I saved $\* per night by staying there. There is no internet = not good. There is only an outdoor pool but in my opinion, a pool is not worth $\* per night. There was no in-rrom information about the area. When we were leaving, we saw a sign for one of the nearby golf courses who had a fair priced breakfast buffet. We went to it and it was very good. All in all, though, we would stay there again due to the price. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marc Aug 12, 2009 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Only minor inconveniences The hotel was well kept and maintained, clean and comfortable. This hotel is part of a large resort that includes golfing and skiing. There are also condos and residences nearby. One thing that makes this hotel different from most is that the check in location for the room is in a "welcome center" about 1/4 mile away from the room. The welcome center also doubles as the real estate office for the resort (they are selling land to build on), but no sales pitch for land was given to us during our stay. This hotel is about 30 minutes from Traverse City and 45 minutes from Petoskey. ##### Marc ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Cozy, Secluded, Year-Round Cabin Rental With A Hot Tub!](https://www.expedia.ca/Munising-Hotels-Cozy.h27265412.Hotel-Information) > > [St. Clair Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Huron-Hotels-The-St-Clair-Inn.h36685.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Sault Ste.
