Cheeky & Iconic

She’s a cheeky, last century motor court, but she still has charm, and her Huron-shore setting is hard to equal for the view. We enjoyed our stay…
Dansby, 1-night trip

Good motel to stay at

The bathroom sink was a little sketchy, and the smoke alarm was missing a cover. Otherwise, it was an awesome place

I’ve stayed in the past for the car show, it was the same as always. Nothing out of this world but it absolutely gets the job done. But for low riding vehicles the driveway is tricky, though that is really my only complaint.

The room was dusty and there were small animals and webs

Went somewhere else

Room wasn't vacuumed. Had a weird smell. Just wasn't comfortable. A lot of pet hair from previous guest. Asked for a vacuum or to have the room vacuumed. Guy at front came & vacuumed. He was very nice & the only positive part of this reservation.
Angela, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Outdated

This motel, although inexpensive for the area, is outdated. It doesn't appear that any updates have been done since built. Our room was in the back building with an air conditioner that didn't work and a bed that would not be comfortable for more than one night.

This is a comfy and convenient place to stay in St. Ignace. Right on the beach with a nice firepit and a grassy area for the dog. Easy walk to Jose’s for dinner.

Host very friendly gave us a great room even had a fire pit ready to go…plenty of restaurants around to choose from and looking at the stars with the fire burning it’s just breathtaking
Daniela, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Asked for maid service got nothing in 2 days. Bathroom floor dead bugs, dirty. Holes in wall no curtains just shades. Very dirty carpet dusty furniture. Bugs on walls as well. Old dirty bedding under mattress. Outside lake view was only saving grace. Room next to us had bugs in their bed. They had to leave and went to another hotel.

No fancy bells & whistles this was a nice clean place to stay. with comfortable beds at a reasonable price. Quiet and friendly helpful staff. Right on the lake with a seating area. Will defiantly stay here again if I am in the area

We loved the lakeside location! The motel is retro with a seaside feel. It’s nice to have some affordable options in the area.

10/10 Exceptional

The owner/manager was so helpful when we booked late in the day and arrived at 9:30pm. It was so wonderfully convenient after such a long ride. The room was so welcoming ☺ and I absolutely loved the decor! The ceiling is so cool.The beds were very comfortable. We were very happy with our stay and will definitely be back.

4/10 Fair

Pool of water at end of bed told attendant he did come mop it up but the room had terrible musty smell bathroom was small and the shower install was not completely finished. The flooring warped - think there is a problem with air conditioner and it leaks and water sits on floor until reported
Cheryl, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Absolutely clean room. Right on the beach, with a beautiful view of the sunrise. Fire pit. Very hospitable, helpful owner. Convenient location to multiple food choices, convenient stores, sight-seeing places. We highly recommend, and would stay there again.

Good value. Nice little private motel
Roger, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The motel is lakefront with a nice beach. Fire pit for guests. The manager was very nice and upgraded our room to ground floor which was better for mobility issues. Clean, comfortable bed and nice, thick bath towels. View of Lake Huron and Mackinac Island are beautiful.

We enjoyed our one night stay in St. Ignace. We had a room with an ♿ bathroom and there were many restaurants and activities nearby.

6/10 Good

Good spot for the price. Walking out to the beach, looking out on the water, in the morning, with a cup of coffee in hand is bliss.
LeAnn, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This unpretentious motel provided a very comfortable stay. Conveniently close to some good restaurants, ice cream shops, and ferries to Mackinac Island. A grill and corn hole are available, and there is a lovely little beach with lounge chairs and fire pit. Beds were comfortable, and room was spotless. Great stay!
