Very nice and quiet place. We thought it was gonna be closer to water view, but it wasn’t. We did miss not having any elevators to get our belongings to our room since we were on the second floor, but there was a nice gentleman in the office who helped us. ❤️

Our stay here was great! The room was very clean, if a little dated, and the beds were very comfortable. Charming, quiet (adults only), and super convenient walking distance to restaurants and the water. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The hotel will be undergoing renovation this winter as it has new ownership and we look forward to staying there next summer!

Staff was friendly, checkin easy; There was coffee and misc breakfast fruit and treats by 8a ea morning, or grab & go. We were there for a wedding weekend. Situated on a quiet street, easy to find, and in a wonderful area with restaurants in walking distance. Just few miles from Sister Bay where the wedding venue was. Room was clean and bed was comfy. Pool didn't open until next day after we left. Thank you!

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
We didn't know when we booked on Expedia, Village Green Lodge is under new ownership. The grounds were messy, no towel bag to refresh towels, the pool was closed and not ready, and the rooms are outdated. The walk to the water view is short. If you want a nice view, this is not the place for you. If you want a quiet place to stay and don't care about the room, this will check the box.
