Very attractive on the outside, beautifully furnished lobby with couches, fireplace and big TV. The desk clerk was very pleasant. But when we entered the hallway to go to our room the smell was terrible. Musty with dirty old carpeting, and the walls were bare and unfinished. The stink made my eyes water. The room had old furniture, one lamp... More

Room was OK in every way, but nothing special. We are travellers who don't spend much time in the room, so decor doesn't matter to us.They are renovating so it's hard to tell what it will be when finished. The pool was large and we would have enjoyed it (all to ourselves) except we didn't bring suits.

Can't recommend this motel for any reason, unless just over $100/night is an economic "sweet" spot. I didn't make the reservation, nor did I survey prices of other motels/hotels in the area. I was "along for the ride" with some buds for a golf trip. The wallpaper has been stripped in all the common areas and the carpets are worn... More

I made reservations way back in february for our room for July. We needed a room for the night before our wedding and this was reasonably priced. When I called, I was told that they were remodeling in may and everything would be completely done and brand new before our arrival (since i was looking for a place for the... More

We stayed up there recently on a children's sports trip to the area. Location is great. Rooms were clean. Nothing spectacular. They were doing some remodeling while we were there which could bode well for the future. Pool was nice but the hot tub was not in service while we were there. Breakfast was great for our needs. Cereal, waffles,... More

We had to travel at the last minute for a funeral, so we weren't terribly picky about where we landed on the New Years Eve weekend - we were thankful to find a hotel. However, we're never going back to the Bay Winds. The room was surprisingly small. The "two queen size beds" were really two full size beds -... More

It was summer time and I was at my friend's birthday party. The pool was nice and everything and the rooms were average. We had a room on the second floor and there was really no one staying there that night. Only like 2 people down the hall from us and no one under or next to us. We were... More

My co worker and I traveled for a conference. We booked this hotel as it was very reasonable on such short notice. Upon check in, the lady at the front desk had nothing positive to say...we asked for a place to get some good food and she said "nothings good around here" and when asked if there was anything fun...

We were only here overnight, but the lady at the front desk was very friendly, we got a good rate, The pool is gorgeous, my son loved it. Our room was very clean. There is a smoking area out back in the parking lot, it did not smell like smoke inside. I would definately reccomend. Petoskey was a GREAT stop... More
