We stayed last summer for a last minute stay from a long drive. An important feature for us was pet friendly for our pups. Customer service was great in that they check in with you via text and phone call. We had a long drive with multiple stops with a young child and dogs. We got a room with two beds. Given for a last minute stay the room was adequate but small for our family of 3 and dogs. There was a small bathroom with a standing shower available. There is an entertainment table with a smart tv and Roku available. The WiFi and service was spotty which is my husband’s only downside,but we were there for one night only. I loved taking the dogs for a walk about the property, there’s a small trail that leads to the lake. Beautiful in the morning. Overall not a bad stay if you’re in need for a bed.

Absolutely lovely stay! They got us in just in time for a wonderful night in St Ignace! Was cute, quiet, and right near the beach with a beach access. The new lady that helped us was wonderful and very helpful. The owner was very kind and made sure we had a lovely stay. All in all, will definitely will be staying there the next time we are in town!

This old school up north mom & pop stuff here. Don't expect holiday Inn stuff here. I've stayed several times. The rooms are prefect for one or two people, a big snug for more. If your a neat/clean freak. Maybe not for you. But the price is right for the budget minded traveler. They also have a small beach on Lake Huron which is nice.

This little place was nice. It was like 130$ for the night. It was very small. They had a wall mounted AC unit that cooled the room really well. There is a shuttle that picked us up and took us to the casino and then around 2am brought us back, so that was nice. They allow dogs which I didn't know, so next time I will def utilize that. The room was clean. The bed and linens were clean. The bathroom was clean. Overall I thought the room was great. We could never get the Wi-Fi to work. The front desk lady gave us the code but it never connected. All in all I would definitely stay here again.
