This place was so clean, the staff was amazing and even checked on us throughout our stay and they have the place stocked with everything you could possibly need! Everything is so cute, the only thing I would say is that having bonfire pits at each cabin would be cool but they do have one outdoor gas grill up by the motel part and they had a little round grill we used for a bonfire at our cabin. But seriously, that’s so small compared to all the wonderful things about it. Plenty of parking, cute vibe all around and so close to both Torch Lake and Grand Traverse Bay (less than 3 mins to each one). Will be back!

Super cute and charming room! Felt way more homey than a standard motel. I absolutely loved the complimentary coffee and snacks in the shared cafe space. I only wish I could have stayed longer. I checked in really late, and they were really accommodating and helpful. Highly recommend if you're looking for a well above average motel stay!

Lovely decorated motel. Room was well kept. Very close to Lake Michigan and Torch Lake. Staff was very warm and welcoming. Keep in mind there is no breakfast offered; there is coffee and snacks, although there is a cafe right across the street.
