Sweet hotel.
Sweet hotel in between Ontonagon and the Porcupine Mountains. Comfy log cabin vibe. Very clean. Across the street - the hotel has a great beach access with incredible views of Lake Superior and a beautiful beach. Gracious hosts greeted us.

The owners were so friendly and accommodating! You must access the lake from their path across the road! They have a beautiful arch with lights leading all the way down. The stars & moon were stunning over the lake the night we stayed. It’s not a fancy hotel, but clean & quaint. (Bed was pretty comfy too!)

Friendly
Very friendly owners, great location. The only thing I would change is to put hooks in the bathroom to hang wet towels, toiletry kit, clothing.

Sunrise after the Rain
Sunrise Motel and Inn lived up to its name! We got rained out of the Porkies’ trails and had to come out a day early. The owner welcomed us warmly and we were in our cozy room, showered/bathed and happy shortly after checking in. The bed is very comfortable, the shower is basic but very clean and has good water pressure. Overall it made for a very nice end to an already wonderful trip

SPOTLESSLY CLEAN, very comfortable beds, fantastic staff, charming decor, easy commute to Porcupine Mountains, wonderful beach across the street, will definitely stay here again if in the area!!! Doesn’t serve breakfast but not a major concern for me. Would be nice to have a shelf or hooks in the bathroom. Absolutely loved this hotel!

8/10 Very Good

Really friendly staff and great location. Path to beach access well maintained and marked. Room was comfortable clean and great value. There were many outdoor seating areas for relaxation and reading. There were only two things we didn’t care for which were unfortunate but not a big deal. There was an outside light from neighbors room that shone right into ours all night long. Couldn’t block it out so that made it hard to stay asleep. Maybe night blocking shade would help. The other unfortunate thing was on our second day they were reroofing the whole place so it was very loud and not peaceful well into evening. Overall a really great find it’s just too bad they did the roofing project on Labor Day.

This motel is amazing!! The owners are so friendly and accommodating. Our room was perfect for what we needed. The path down to the Lake is across the road and absolutely stunning!! Can also sit out in the beautiful yard and bbq or have a fire. It's a little peace of paradise

If you're looking for paradise lost, you've found it again. The private beach access and meticulously kept grounds was fantastic. Its a step back in time, the way things used to be. Loved it,and the genuine people who are your hosts.
