The staff were all friendly. My omelet was very good but with one chef, 2 burners and a line, it was a long wait. The room was fairly clean but updates are needed. For example, our towel bar was broken.

Friendly and attentive staff, comfortable beds, good enough for the basics. Yes, its a little outdated if that bothers you but we weren't there to just stay around the hotel and room. Beautiful view outside of Sturgeon Bay and close to the shopping areas.

Property is definitely in need of dire update; especially for the $300/night l. General feel is stale and worn. We were moved to a new room after discovering tub was completely rusty and appeared stained. To the credit of management, we were given a free night and suite upgrade. Although clearly expensive to undertake, we believe there was much potential given the location and big crowds in the area.

there were small insects in the room. Cobwebs and other indicators including dust indicating that the cleaning process was not good . The refrigerator was frosted over and inoperable. I complained to the front desk and they did send a maintenance person who replaced the refrigerator, but we were inconvenienced and had to wait while he came to take the refrigerator. We were also inconvenienced because we had to wait until he picked it up the next day. Just a bad experience.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Horrible smells upon arrival and wouldn’t refund us even when we said we didn’t mind paying the first day, but wanted a refund for next two. The drive into the hotel was a concrete driveway that was all torn up and I thought would damage my car if I drove it multiple times. The sign to the property was slashed and upon entering the hotel it wasn’t maintained nicely. Visible mold in lobby bathroom. Awful smells in lobby. Drip down the outside the front of the hotel. We said we would pay for that day but wanted our money back for the other days. We didn’t feel safe staying there. Both the hotel owners and Expedia gave us the run around and wouldn’t refund.

Liked the ease to get to our boat to fish in the morning Did not like all the pot holes around the property. They should fix that. Also we were charge a large resort fee and the pool was not working. If you are going to charge a resort fee, everything MUST work in order to receive that.

The room and interior are very dated and in need of repair. Ours had holes in the walls a very old bathtub that did not appear clean. The upside was the bed was very comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. The location is lovely and it is a shame the interior is in rough shape.
