Nice view of Lake Superior. The room is very outdated. The floor is not level, extension cords all over and needs a complete remodel. The outside of the property needs some serious repair in more than one area. The ladder someone complained about months ago is still there. A carpenter needs to be hired to finish repairs. Overall we would not stay there again. If we had our car instead of a motorcycle, we would have slept in the car.

I did not check out the area when I was booking the place. When I arrived, I did not see an office to go into. I saw a sign that said to call the manager. I asked how I could get in. She had an envelope with my last name pinned to a bulletin board. I was surprised because I saw two other envelopes with names on them. I thought that would not be secure at all. If you are worried about security, I would not recommend this place. I asked if there was any place to eat around here. She spoke about a hotel restaurant, a Casino restaurant, and a pizzeria that was six miles away. There was also gas station food. The place only offered a room with a refrigerator and a small microwave. The bathroom was clean, but I was surprised to see a sign that said, " Please hold the handle until the toilet flushes completely! THANKS. I have never had this sign at any hotel or motel before. They had a plastic packet for the shampoo and conditioner together. It did not tear easily and required me to cut it with scissors or bite it open. I ended up biting it open. They also provided a miniature soap about 1.25", .75", and .25". It seemed very small, but it worked. The shower was a step-in shower that was about 30" square. They do not have a bathtub if you are interested in that. I was looking for the thermostat, and when I saw it, it only seemed to set up to heat. Because we are up north, I knew at night it would cool down outside. The screen window was open and a box fan.

Nice quiet hotel

I do not usually leave reviews but we stayed here last year and it was a nice place to stay so when we got the chance to go to Keweenaw area again I booked it for this year. It is a older hotel as you can see in the pictures but Carla is super nice and helpful. It is a family business and you can contact Carla if you need anything. The rooms are clean and nice inside and has everything you need. It is a nice quiet pretty setting with the water right across the road. I would definitely recommend staying there, we will when we are in the area again.

A very tourist-friendly motel – we booked the place online, and an envelope with our name was pinned to the information board, with the room key inside :) In the morning, a breathtaking sunrise. We saw it through the window, but… we stepped outside and were left speechless. The photo was taken right outside the door.

Property lacks general maintenance. I read there was a fire a couple years ago and it's clear the owners haven't done anything to get it back in shape.

Charming but dated!

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.
