Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
There was a persistent mechanical noise that affected multiple rooms and did not allow us to sleep. The staff recognized that "some guests are bothered by it", but refused to assist in any way. Did not returned calls to the room and blamed the customers for not calling back. Nothing was done to assist and the service of the front desk was horrible.

Enjoyed our stay

I booked this room on our way to Traverse City. I had never booked through Hotels.com but the process was easy and smooth. Check in was quick and efficient while still getting all the information necessary. Our room was clean and we had housekeeping service every day, which was the first time we've encountered this since Covid. The pool and hit tub area was also clean. Previous reviews complained about the pool being too cold but i thought it was about average. We really enjoyed the adjoining restaurant and bar. They offered a 4 hour long Happy Hour daily. Their menu was quite varied and prices were typical of the area. It is definitely frequented by the locals, especially on Wednesday- trivia night!

Room was clean and spacious. But it did lack any counter space in the very tiny kitchen area. Some type of kitchen table would be helpful. Otherwise had a nice stay.

Convenient to several dining options and just a short drive to downtown Traverse City. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The evening desk clerk gave us a delicious Mexican recommendation location. Resort sits right on the water with rooms having an accessible balcony with chairs. We greatly enjoyed our stay and hope to come back for more memories. Also recommend Tall Sail company for sailboat rides!

I came here for over 20 years with my husband who passed three years ago. I have a new friend who had not been to Traverse before. We loved the tranquility of waking up on the bay, the bar/restaurant on property, and the staff being thorough and professional. Thank you, I (hopefully we) will be back!

The property is dated but some remodeling has been done to the rooms and makes them nice. We stayed in the king suite with a jacuzzi. The jacuzzi was big, more than enough for two large adults. Small but functional balcony with an awesome view of the bay. We sometimes slept with the patio door open to listen to waves. Two separate sinks made it easy for us to get ready for the day. The only downsides we noticed were that the bed is very hard, the couch wasn’t comfortable and it could use some floor lamps controlled by the switches. But we felt like nothing was enough to complain about.

We had an amazing suite with a wonderful view. We walked the whole beach and this hotel I thought looked like one of the best if not the best! Rented jet skis right outside, highly recommended! Definitely will come back!! Only complaints would be the breakfast isn’t free, and the deck in our room was a little tight.
