Staff was very nice and courteous. Everyone was so friendly and helpful.
The room was clean and spacious, and the beds were comfortable. The staff was curtious and professional. We stayed there after skiing the Highlands. The outdoor hot tub was perfect and the robes in the room were appreciated. The view of the bay is great, the restaurant was good, although a little on the pricey side. Overall, we had a great stay.
Outdoor dining was wonderful. Fire pit was relaxing. Pool was perfect. Room was above shipping area with some noise, but fine, though long walk. Next time I will request a quiet room facing water.

Liked: Room comfort
Beautiful hotel, staff was very nice, gorgeous views. Bugs were inescapable (due to being on water not due to cleanliness of hotel) making balcony unusable and spending time outside unenjoyable. Hotel very clean but pesky bugs throughout.
Going in the Winter was nice, the property is beautifully set up with Lake Michigan sitting behind. The concierge, the Front Desk to even the other staff working there were very respectful, nice and always made sure to go one step above! My family especially loved the Tea and Cookies moment they offer, followed by the breakfast was amazing with their wide variety to choose from inside their Breakfast spot they have inside the Inn!
We will for sure be back!
