This was our 3rd time staying here. We loved it from the very beginning. It is one of the very few hotels with views of Lake Michigan from your hotel room. The rooms have always been spotless and disinfected beforehand. The showers have fantastic water pressure. Their towels are huge. Honestly, I'm nit-picky and I never have anything to nit-pick.

After check in my room no towels. Dirty bathroom unclean pieces of dirty washcloth left in bathroom. Next day I told them we need room services to change bedsheet and bring towels for us. Once return to my room…no bedsheet change. They left new towels and new sheet for us to change ourself. Terrible…Terrible… No Strongly No recommended!!

Nice trip with a lake view. The hotel is older with new carpet, wall paper and furniture. It was a pleasant and comfortable experience. Front desk staff proved helpful and friendly.

I came to check out the park and beach. I saw the hotel and was so impressed i had to stay. The lake view was so relaxing. Staff at the hotel was very polite and helpful. Im sure i will stay again in the near future.

The view from our window was amazing! It was a 10 on the scale of 1-5. The room was kind of small, it looked like the towels and such did not get resupplied before we checked in, but the view of Lake Michigan more than made up for what the room lacked.

Pleasantly surprised, especially after reading some of the reviews. Beds were comfortable, and I’m hard to please. Rooms were air conditioned, had a little fridge which cooled but didn’t get things cold, and a microwave. Tub/shower, one cup coffee maker that uses pods staff were friendly and helpful. There’s a little store with souvenirs, cups, sweaters etc.. it would be nice if they also sold suntan lotion, beach stuff. There’s a restaurant, Nolan’s, that serves lunch and dinner with buffet breakfast on the weekend. Food was mediocre, and coffee was not included in the rather expensive buffet. There’s an Olympic size pool (or a big pool) under repair that I was told would be functional by the end of September, ‘24. Beach is really close and wonderful. Even though it’s a private beach, we noticed there were a lot of people there who weren’t staying in the hotel. It would be nice if they found a way to enforce that so guests would have more access. We enjoyed ourselves and will be back.

The best thing about this hotel is the location being right next to the lake. However, the rooms are very dated and the tubs was dirty. Spiders were everywhere.

The clean beach and serene sunrises is the perk and only reason I'd stay again. The food at the restaurant was overpriced and cold. There wasn't a fan in the bathroom and wallpaper was peeling. A lot of updates are needed throughout. The one elevator was nerve-wracking and smelled funky, like motor oil and sweat. The overall cost was inexpensive and staff were friendly but the lows outweighed the good for us.

The hotel is right next to the beach, so it was easily accessible for me and my grandchildren. The beach was beautiful, very clean, wonderful spot for a vacation.

Lake front and beach were beautiful. The pool was closed renovations continued. Unfortunately the room we got through Hotels. Com gave us a view of the back of the building and construction. The lodge graciously changed or room the next day to overlook the lake.

Amazing location right on the beach. We were a little disappointed that the pool was being remodeled but are excited to come back in the future. Property was very clean and the room was nice.
