This is a very cool place in a great location. Just avoid rooms in the high 130s/low 140s. Those rooms are directly below the breakfast room so all you hear from 6 - 9 is stomping, talking and squeaking chairs.

The weathering and aging of the balcony deck was a turn off. Also, the exterior waterfront area was not inviting. Very old structures, some overgrowth and bare areas.

A quaint little abode. The Bavarian haus was a great place to stay to enjoy fireworks and festivities for the 4th of July. They definitely need to do some remodeling, updates and replace the carpets but otherwise the room was nice and clean. Unfortunately there was no cleaning staff and we had to ration our towels. The balcony looking out onto the water was grate but the banister was a little rickety. The front office staff was friendly and helpful. We were able to purchase ferry tickets to Mackinac island from them directly and have a shuttle service pick us up for the ferry which was very convenient!
