From the outside we were a little skeptical (old fashion motif). One step in the door and it felt like home. Warn, clean, and the lounge was PERFECT. We played cribbage and met some new friends. We will definitely be back! What a great little place!
It was our first time in the UP and the lodge was perfect. My wife and I loved, and spent most of every evening in the lounge area playing the pinball and dart games. If we ever make it up that way again, we will definitely be staying at the lodge. Even the couple that we came to visit didn’t know it was here and are getting there family members to stay there when they visit.
I liked the self-check in. The room was clean and adequate. Not much around the property but this place is for those who are heading outdoors on adventures.
Don’t let the bright photo of the lobby fool you. It is dark, dreary, and the common areas and hallways stink like a combination of smoking and no cleaning.
No coffee pot in the room, just a single Kureig in the lobby.
There is no front desk, it’s all self check in. No one monitoring who comes and goes. There is no security lock on the inside of the door
Not a family place, the best part was dawn, when I could leave.

An idea of who their customer base consists of is illustrated in a sign posted asking guest to help keep the linens clean by showering after a trail ride.

I really wanted to like this place however my room smelled horrible. The musty smell permeated through everything. The room itself was clean with a very dated avocado green bathroom. The self check in went great but there’s no visible staff. The TV only works if you have Hulu or Netflix. Convenient parking. My husband was packed & ready to leave in the morning in record time. Maybe it’s better in the winter when more people are there? The smell unfortunately ruined it for us definitely needs a good airing out.
When we arrived we found a locked door with a self check-in QR code, upon scanning it we didn't have the required information. I called the number on the door and the host that answered was rude and condescending. Stated that they had emailed the instructions four times. I checked my inbox and spam no emails were found. He then finally validated my reservation and gave me the access code and room number.
The room was just ok, the beds seemed clean but the inside of the toilet was not and there was a chipped nail and some debris on the floor. Also before going to bed we found that the rooms window had been left unlocked.
Weird feeling to be all alone in the large building, no staff onsite. Our room was very cold, we called and did get help. Someone brought a heater, apparently heat is on, but takes long to get to our room. No staff. But the facility is clean, comfortable. If you come with a group, it could be great.
