Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The accommodations were fine and there was ample parking. The only negative was the $11.00 breakfast Buffett. The sausage and pancakes were stone cold.
We have traveled from az to mi and Parkshore was our absolutely favorite hotel. Had great view, food, service, and very nice room. We certainly would come back.
We had a room overlooking the bay. It was beautiful! Clean and relaxing.
We appreciated not having to leave the hotel to grab dinner and the buffet breakfast in the morning had great eggs!
There was a persistent mechanical noise that affected multiple rooms and did not allow us to sleep. The staff recognized that "some guests are bothered by it", but refused to assist in any way. Did not returned calls to the room and blamed the customers for not calling back. Nothing was done to assist and the service of the front desk was horrible.
I booked this room on our way to Traverse City. I had never booked through Hotels.com but the process was easy and smooth.
Check in was quick and efficient while still getting all the information necessary.
Our room was clean and we had housekeeping service every day, which was the first time we've encountered this since Covid.
The pool and hit tub area was also clean. Previous reviews complained about the pool being too cold but i thought it was about average.
We really enjoyed the adjoining restaurant and bar. They offered a 4 hour long Happy Hour daily. Their menu was quite varied and prices were typical of the area. It is definitely frequented by the locals, especially on Wednesday- trivia night!
Room was clean and spacious. But it did lack any counter space in the very tiny kitchen area. Some type of kitchen table would be helpful. Otherwise had a nice stay.
Only stayed one night (somewhat local) and the staff was super friendly, the lounge/restaurant had great food and service while being very busy. Great spot.
Convenient to several dining options and just a short drive to downtown Traverse City. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The evening desk clerk gave us a delicious Mexican recommendation location. Resort sits right on the water with rooms having an accessible balcony with chairs. We greatly enjoyed our stay and hope to come back for more memories. Also recommend Tall Sail company for sailboat rides!
I came here for over 20 years with my husband who passed three years ago. I have a new friend who had not been to Traverse before. We loved the tranquility of waking up on the bay, the bar/restaurant on property, and the staff being thorough and professional. Thank you, I (hopefully we) will be back!
