Incredible Stay.
Beautiful hotel. Incredible service. The cafe situation is odd… I feel like it might be more profitable if it had better hours. The spa being closed on Mother’s Day (closed Sun/Mon) was also a bummer and when I emailed the spa, as their website suggested, no one ever followed up or emailed me back. Soooo. Keep that in mind if you’d like those services- otherwise the hotel is stunning, employees are lovely. So much to do there. Wonderful get away.

Overnight last minute trip, very nice!
I decided to book an overnight trip last minute in Saint Joseph, I really enjoy walking around the town and going down to the lakeshore, so I figured I would try actually staying overnight there for once. I decided to try the Inn, and I was very pleased with the friendly check in and the great condition of the room. The room was very spacious and well maintained. It was nice getting to chill in the hot tub for a little bit, though the pool is just a tad smaller than I initially thought, but that's really not a big deal at all. It's a pretty easy 15 minute walk to the downtown area and the beach, which is a plus. All in all I was pleased with the stay and would definitely recommend the place for sure.
