Getting better in most ways...
I have been staying at this location for the past 10 years. The overall condition of the grounds and units is getting better. There needs to be more of an effort on outside up keep and renovations. Breakfasts have gotten less impressive. Rates have gone up steadily, probably $100 more than a few years ago. There is no other location I would stay in Harbor Springs.

Absolutely lovely stay at the Colonial Inn. We loved the grounds and the proximity to the lake front. Great amenities such as an indoor hot tub and outdoor pool. The room was spacious and we loved the large deck. The complimentary breakfast was next level. Pro tip…grab a coffee and enjoy the front porch of the main building before breakfast or enjoy your breakfast on the back patio of the main building. Even on a rainy morning it was divine!

Musty smelling room #27 with a dehumidifier in bedroom. Small TV with grainy picture. Broken up concrete under the threshold entry. Curtains didn't completely block windows facing the courtyard and 2nd story units. Public areas are nice though.

It’s a beautiful old property with so much charm. Everything was wonderful. Breakfast was great and all staff were very nice. My only concern to list was the beds were not very comfortable. It’s hard to please everyone’s sleeping comfort, but my mother, daughter, and I woke up very stiff.

Vintage setting
Vintage building that’s sparkling clean & comfortable. The property is in a quiet & beautiful area walkable to downtown. Our basic room for a 1-night stay was well equipped with great beds & pillows. We enjoyed sitting by the pool & using the hot tub.
