Not only is Carla one of the sweetest people you will meet, she was also helpful with all my questions regarding dining options to rock hunting. The room was comfy, clean and had so much charm. Thanks for a great stay Carla!

It was a relaxing place to stay. The staff were friendly. It could use some clean up outside, weeding. The bed was great as were the sheets, pillows, blankets.

I had a very nice, clean room and it was ready when I arrived. The property is a bit dated but I like the improvements the owners are making. The view of the lake is amazing, and the owners were really nice!!

I liked the convenience of location,,I had two kids to pickup and move on.
If you have dogs this is a great place to hang out,,
If you are a non dog owner you will not like it,
Reasonable price for short lay over

Great view of the bay, clean and friendly, easy check in, but motel is old and backed up to a hill, floors are unlevel and nothing is plumb in the building. Overall comfortable and a rustic charm but in need of major overhaul.

It's a small motor lodge and feels like a small motor lodge, but it's comfortable, has a great view, and is a worthwhile stop for weary travelers.

What a wonderful view from our room of the sunrise. Dog friendly that was nice. There is no restaurant at site even advertisement said there was however Carla had a great list of resturants near by. On recommenday would be to have one dog friendly room with a railing near the 3 steps
We appreciated the grab bars near the front door.

Every day one of the owners checked with us and offered their direct cell phone numbers in case of any concerns.
I have serious bad issues and we slept very comfortably in the queen bed. No frills but a fantastic value. We definitely will go again. Beautiful view on Lake Superior.

Carla was very pleasant and the overnight was great for just 1 person. Too tight if my wife had been with me. It needs more TLC and general upkeep. I congratulate the owners for keeping it going, though in a tough economy.
The next-door restaurant was closed, and none were right nearby.
The view facing east across the bay was gorgeous and the price was good.

Carla was nice and worked with us through some issues, though the facility had a lot to be desired. There is no longer a restaurant and it’s a lot more outdated (at least what’s leftover from the fire) than expected. Not a bad place, though it was not what we were expecting.

The place was old. Pockets doors on the bathroom. Bathroom sink is tilted and toilet is loose on the floor. Mattresses sag in the middle. Tv placed above small table tilted downward…watch your head getting up! Ouch, more than once we bumped our heads and back room has a definite dip!

We arrived late but there was no one to greet us. Key was attached to a board outside. The television worked horribly with only a few stations available. The room was clean but nothing special. The bed was comfortable.

The rooms were cleaned. The shower was missing the shower head. The wifi did not work for us, but password was provided. There is no front desk, our key & info was provided in an envelope on a bulletin board. The restaurant burned down a year ago, you have to go into town for food.
