An awesome stay

My husband, son and I stayed in the Gold Coast Inn over the 4th of July weekend. The hotel was well kept. The room was spacious. The Inn had communal "living rooms" on three levels that could be used by all vacationers. My son and I loved sitting on the 2nd floor deck. There was an awesome view of the Grand Traverse Bay. We enjoyed seeing multiple different fireworks across the Bay. The owners had set out a nice cheese and vegetable tray for everyone to enjoy. Overall the Inn was quiet, well kept and clean.
