“Fine, but not a resort and not worth the money they charge”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed August 13, 2012

This is basically a hotel on the beach and that is all...There are some cool things, like the location, the beach and patios right outside the room looking over the water, but I would not in any way call this a resort. There is no bar, no restaurant, no pool so I wonder where the resort is?? They charged a lot per night for no perks at all. I didn;t hate anything about it, I just think it is sort of false advertising. I would stay there again for a night, but I would never spend a vacation there. I also agree with the other person on here about the family reunion! They took up the pretty much the whole "yard" outside of the rooms.

Room Tip: If you do stay here, you will want to get a room on the water or it is a total waste of money.

“Made for family reunions”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed August 10, 2012

If you and your extended family want to hang out together on the beach, play cards, and watch the toddlers play -- the Beach Haus is for you. As a couple, however, we were not as enchanted as others. The rooms are definitely dated altho clean; the A/C sounded like a B52. And, if the family reunion out on the lawn is NOT your family -- they are a little too close for comfort.

Room Tip: All the rooms face the water. I'd try to get an end room if you want quiet.

“Great beach location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 26, 2012

Great location on nice sandy beach. You can carry your continental breakfast outside and eat at picnic tables. The property is a little dated but service was friendly and helpful, rooms are clean and there is free wi-fi. Only minor complaint is that it would have been nice to have some fresh fruit for breakfast like bananas or apples. We are thinking of returning to rent the Penthaus with family.

Room Tip: Almost all rooms face the bay. You need to choose whether you want a balcony or ground level patio...

“Beach Haus”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 10, 2012

Located right on the beach! They provide chairs, tables and loungers in the yard area between the hotel and the beach and chairs for use on the beach as well. There are BBQs available and a small continental breakfast is offered. We enjoyed two nights here and the staff were extremely helpful

Room Tip: The ground floor rooms have walk out patios right to the courtyard and access to the beach!

“Absolutely great hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed June 28, 2012

Spent 2 nights in June. June 18th and 19th. Right on the beach. Our room had a patio with chairs and tables. Water was "cold" for us Michiganders in June, but what a beautiful view. Of course kids were in the water. Very relaxing property. Great location just outside of Traverse City. It is an older hotel. Air Condition is the wall unit type. It did the job though. Refrigerator worked just fine. I absolutely would stay again for a beach get away.
The room was good size with two double beds. Very comfortable beds. The bath was large and clean. The continental breakfast was basic, but we went out for breakfast anyway so it didn't matter to us. As a small hotel it is excellent. Of course doesn't have the glamour of a huge high rise but as a small older hotel it is great.

Room Tip: I suggest the patio over a balcony. Just my preference. There is a nice BBQ area.
