A lot of reviewers are complaining about the sliding door not locking. 1) there's a stick which is better than a lock and 2) they must live in a place where you have to lock the house up just to go to the mailbox. If you want a fancy resort where you're pampered, this isn't for you. If you want... More

Simple, no frills motel at the very north end of the tip of the peninsula. The property is beautiful and the area is quiet, calming, and refreshing. Recommended for those who don't care for the best of modern ammenities, preferring instead simplicity and quietness.

This is at the very north end of the pensula which was a wonderful location. We got there fairly late and with internet access to check reviews, but knew all the hotels reviews weren't bad so we checked in. When we walked in noticed no lock on the slider...then found a board to put in it. Other door lock was... More

As a child, our family vacations always included staying at hotels like these: small, easy access to the outdoors in a scenic locale, pet friendly (and people friendly too), perfectly clean, relaxing. We had a room in the non-lakeside section, though it had a view of the lake too. The 2 wings of this section make a V facing the... More

This is an old style single story motel on the water in Copper Harbor. The motel is not well maintained, and the rooms definitely need a makeover. Approaching my room, I noticed the lack of maintenance on the exterior (peeling paint, weeds, etc.). Inside, the room has old carpet, curtains, and old style furniture. The bed linens were ok, and...

The King Copper may be an older hotel with not many amenities but it more than makes up for it in the view of Lake Superior, the peace and quiet, the sheer beauty of nature out the large sliding doors. I would stay here again.

This motel is right on the water. There is a sandy beach a place to swim and a dock right outside your door. No other motel in copper harbor offers this. Bella vista is next door but they aren't as close to the water as the king copper. We were well pleased with our room it was clean and spacious.... More

This is not the best place in Copper Harbor in terms of quality, but the views are nice. It's very outdated and the plumbing leaves something to be desired, but you probably won't be spending much time in the room if you're in the area anyway. Pets are allowed which is good for the pet owners, but the place doesn't... More

We loved the view but that was it. No locking of sliding doors, but just a stick to wedge into the slider, very old! We had to turn the hot water on from below the sink from the actual valve. The faucet handle did not work. This was horrid and the owner never offered us a different room, even though... More
