Best value and we will be returning. An old lodge that has been revived. It is very clean,in fact I thought it had just been renovated only to read in the diary that it had been open for a couple of years. It sets in the middle of the Keewenaw so were close to Copper Harbor and the Porcupines. Easy check in on Airbnb . Best of all was the proximity to the best breakfast place-next door and a best dinner restaurant across the street! Can’t wait to go back!
Room was exactly as described. Few nice amenities like coffee, toiletries, and biggest of all for us, the Tesla EV destination charger. Good location for adventures on the peninsula. Friendly restaurant across the street to grab some food. Was pretty much all that we could have asked for!
Very cute and affordable boutique hotel. The owners are lovely and very accommodating.
This motel meets an airbnb was a clean, near everything, and easy to find stay. Two walkable restaurants. Simple, new, and very clean. Had everything we needed for our week long stay. It is a cozy one room with a bathroom. It felt small, but we were out exploring, so it worked for resting and sleeping. We have traveled across the US and remodeled motels are my fav!
We were in room #11. Clean and smelled good. Amenities were thoughtful (couple of band aids, bug wipes, razor, face wipes, etc). Liked having a full pot coffee maker instead of those tiny 2 cup ones you find in hotels. Big bathroom with great water pressure (that was a nice surprise). Roku worked fine and the internet signal was strong. Think the motel was pretty full yet we never heard any noise room to room. Best of all is walking distance to Slims restaurant- do not miss eating there.
Great stay! Clean, cozy, and perfectly located! The location is perfect if you’re heading to Mount Bohemia! The property is a small motel, but the room was absolutely adorable—super clean, cozy, and thoughtfully set up with lots of little extras that made the stay really comfortable. There’s also a great café and restaurant within easy walking distance, which was incredibly convenient. I had the chance to meet the host, Sherrie, and she was truly wonderful—so kind, friendly, and helpful. You can really tell how much she cares about the property and her guests, and it’s clear she takes a lot of pride in running it as a local family business. That personal touch made the stay even more special. Overall, we absolutely loved our time here and felt comfortable the entire stay. It’s a perfect spot for exploring the Keweenaw, and we would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a clean, cozy, and welcoming place to stay!
We had room 11 around back. Very clean, quiet and nicely private.
Super cute! Super clean! Just arrived and already in love with the hotel. Can already tell that we are going to enjoy our stay.
