Incredible Log and stone Lodge. As nice as any that we have stayed in. The staff are great people. The heated pool and hot tub are inside and very nice. The lobby is incredible. more

We booked 1 night to be close to Boyne Highlands for the Zoo-De-Mack bicycle tour. The staff was warm, friendly, helpful, and informative. The hotel offers a great "up north" lodging field, and the lobby / gathering area is spectacular. The rooms were quite a bit larger than your standard hotel room, and there was a nice balcony overlooking the... more

The Crooked River Lodge personnel and rooms are the best. This was our first visit to the Crooked River Lodge and it was the best. We have five couples who have been getting together for snowmobiling for the last ten years, in both lower and upper Michigan, and all agreed that CRL has the best accommodations/staff. We all agreed that... more

My wife and I stayed at the Crooked River Lodge Dec. 28-31 during a snowmobiling trip in northern lower MI. The owners did all they could to make for an enjoyable stay including providing all sorts of information about the local snowmobile trails, dining info, etc., even giving me a dry place to work on my snowmobile when I was... more

The Crooked River Lodge is a great location. The hotel itself is very clean and quiet. There are several bike trails in the area which is what our trip was focused on. They let you store your bikes in the lobby. The hotel is a short distance to Petoskey, Bay Harbor, Traverse City, Charlevoix, etc. We had a wonderful dinner... more

We drove up to Alanson, Mi for a color tour of the area. Tuesday night the 7th of October we stayed at the Clarion Collection Crooked River Lodge. What a treat. The place is large and cozy at the same time. The folks who operate the lodge are friendly and helpful. All the rooms are riverfront with balconies. Four of... more

Surprised to find out it's no longer a Clarion. The entire place was well appointed and maintained. Bed was comfortable. We were a little disappoited in a few thing...#1 greeted by three dogs behind the front desk and a screaming child. #2 the breakfast was very disappointing as it only had high carb items and weak coffee. more

My wife and I have traveled extensively for years, but have never felt compelled to write a review about a hotel before now. I'll keep it short in hopes that I hit the major points of this remarkable hotel. Northern Michigan is noted for it's friendly hospitality but the management there made us feel amost like family from the moment... more

We just spent 2 nights at the lodge - booked through one of the golf courses - and I wasn't sure what to expect based on the TA reviews. 1st - we were treated very well - friendly front desk staff - smooth check in / check out - our room was very clean - well 'appointed' - comfortable beds/pillows,... more
