"Room was great! Comfortable, quiet, spacious, cute little patio with chairs. The only thing is that the Hotel/lodge is not attached to the casino. We had to ask someone that was outside where to go It is a short drive up a hill. There is shuttle service, but it was confusing upon arrival about where to go for checkout."

"We stayed in the Chalet Edelweiss and were very pleasantly surprised with the size of the room and the ammenities offered. Upon checkin we received our unlimited passes for the Ski-lift and Skybridge, along with free bike rentals, yoga classes and fun Chalet activities. When we came back to our room after dinner we found smore's kits for each of us along with our own sticks to toast them at the fire right outside our door. We had a great weekend enjoying the area and staying on Boyne property."

Courtyard by Marriott Petoskey at Victories Square

Courtyard by Marriott Petoskey at Victories Square

8/10 Good
"The hotel is located about 2 miles from central Petosky, out in the countryside, away from the main activities of the city. The hotel is modern, comfortable, well maintained, and has a distinct hipster vibe. We were hoping to see Little Traverse Bay from the hotel, but the view was surprisingly blocked by tall evergreen trees. The rooms were comfortable and spacious and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom was clean and spacious and the shower was very good. The WiFi was easy to connect to and the signal was decent. The staff was somewhat attentive and friendly but a little too laid back to provide a sense of professionalism. This is probably preferred by Millennial Hipsters :) The cost was outrageous: $500 per night for a room with 2 queen beds. Although our stay was pleasant, I probably would not stay here again due to the distance from Petosky and the cost."
