Fun stay
We stayed for an evening. Some reviews were speaking of being outdated and windows being dirty. Others were from people who had a great experience. Our room was a smidge outdated but was fantastic. Very clean and i liked how it looked. I didn't see any stains so for its lack of upgrades it made up for it with cleanliness. The windows could have used a spiff up but man, its ALOT of windows. We enjoyed it. We would return when its warmer for outside experiences as well as skiing this winter. And every single staff member was great. Very friendly. Thanks for a good time.

The room was so outdated and in poor condition that I was very surprised by. Nice location but just needs to escape from the 1970’s.

The room was quality was poor with a damaged front door and a broken lock on the patio door. The room looked and smelled outdated. The shower drained so slow. We had to shower extremely fast to not stand in the 3-4 inches of water. We let the front desk know, but nothing came of it. The whole stay, there were dirty glasses sitting on the hallway floor outside of what I would assume was a utility closet. The Lakeview Restaurant seems like it’d be a fine dining experience, but it is not at all. The table we were sat at had fries and mustard stains on the floor. The food that was being brought out to tables looked cold. The cocktails were great, but the menu was not very appealing. My wife and I decided to just finish our drinks and drive 40 minutes to Grand Traverse Resort and dine at Aerie, which was an actual high end restaurant. (Worth the drive) The best thing about this place is the golf courses. Best of all, they’re public, so I’d recommend staying somewhere nicer for what you would spend to stay here and book some tee times.

I almost didn't stay at this hotel because some reviews said it was dirty. The hotel was spotless! We ate in the restaurant, it was good, the bartender John was great. Our balcony had a gorgeous view. We would definitely stay here again.

Enjoyed our stay with two kids, ages 2 and 11. Room was nice, balcony was a bit shaky and might need a little maintenance. Restaurants on site were nice, a little pricey but peaceful place. We lost power in the middle of night due to storms but generator kept hall lights and bathroom light on. We weren't inconvenienced much. Breakfast buffet wasn't the best- opt for the Starbucks on site. We loved the outdoor pool!
