The property was clean and easily found. I was a bit disappointed to find that though it is named Best Western Lakeside, there was no lake. Lake Michigan is approximately 3 miles away. It wasn’t clear in the description of the property that this was the case. It was clean and served a good breakfast.

We stayed with other family members for New Year’s Eve. It was fantastic!! They had snacks and party gear out in the evening, the pool was clean and the kids had fun in the arcade. We were thrilled to have a late check out on New Years Day. The staff was great, our room was huge and clean. We didn’t make it down to breakfast, but the area looked great. We’ll definitely be back!!
