Hidden Gem

Great stay! Hidden little gem. It’s a 5-10 drive from the busier parts of town. There’s a porch and fire pits in the back to relax after a days of adventures. The bed was comfortable and the shower was great. The property owner was great too. Will definitely stay here again.

Compact room but clean and nicely renovated. Back terrace to a small yard was perfect for traveling with my dog. Hiking trails with Lake Superior views super close.

I was pleasantly surprised of the overall condition of the Hotel, for the price. I think we paid just over $100.00 per night. It was more than I expected. The bathroom window was so clean more than once I thought it was open. The bed was very comfortable and the wood deck outside was a good touch.

Nice little place

We stayed for one night. The room was very clean, but the bed was older and not quite as comfortable as we would’ve liked. Check in was super easy and it was worth the money.
