Definitely recommend

Charming, affordable, no frills motel. Exactly the type of accommodations we appreciate. Love the simple keypad entry. Our room was clean and spacious with very comfortable beds. Easy parking (right at our door), quiet area and very safe. Decided to extend our stay after we arrived and didn’t have to change rooms when we booked the 2nd night (MANY THANKS AGAIN to the manager for helping us with that by phone!). Easy access to Mackinaw Island ferry services and very close to shopping & dining options. We so enjoyed our stay and would absolutely book here again!

My room was comfortable and had everything you could want or need. The parking was convenient and it was quiet outside. I had to return later after I had checked out and the lady that took of me was very friendly, a very sweet person. I had a good stay!!

A great ending to a long day

What a great place to end up at after a long, long day of driving. Since they do remote check-in, I called in while enroute to get my room number and door entry code, and the lady I chatted with was wonderful and friendly. I arrived late, and her directions, even telling me what parking spots would be open, was spot on. Room was clean, well kept and looked recently renovated. I slept great. It was pouring rain when I arrived so the roof overhang was a godsend when moving my gear into my room, keeping everything dry. Price was great, I would stay there again for sure, the next time I am in the area.
