Lake Superior in your front yard.
Close to Pictured Rocks NP and on the water do very convenient. Outdated but a great place to crash being right on the water.

Pass on the 2-bed option
It was…ok at best. The room with 2 beds was clearly not meant to have 2 beds; cheap partition walls had been put up to divide the space into 2 separate bedrooms, leaving a bathroom that was extremely narrow (think bathtub plus about 15 extra inches wide) and could only be accessed by going through the 2nd room. The bathroom was not in great condition; the grout around the tub needed to be replaced a decade ago, the toilet was loose on the floor, and the trim work was unpainted. The effect was as if at the end of the “chop up the room” project the owners either ran out of money or said “Aaah, good enough.” The beds were ok and I think overall everything was probably clean but the presentation left a lot to be desired. Breakfast was “the morning desk person will make some coffee and put out some danishes”; we opted to eat some food we had brought for snacks instead so don’t know about the quality of what they offered. The very early birds next to us packed up and took items out to their car one at a time apparently, taking the opportunity to let the door slam shut EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. After probably 20 slams in the darkness of early morning, we gave up on further sleeping and got up. Not the motel’s fault of course, just a friendly reminder to fellow travelers to be considerate of other people when getting up before the sun does. The view was pretty but we would choose a different place to stay if ever in that neck of the woods again. Maybe the single bed rooms are better?

Absolutely amazing. We got the room with the private balcony and it was great. We liked we that we were able to be outside but be private as well. Beautiful views, and the friendliest staff.

Its a quaint little locally owned motel . Property was nice , staff was polite . Rooms were a bit cramped if your a larger person or handicapped you will not be able to use the bathroom or shower easily . Its quiet with great views of the bay , and some outdoor seating . and close to town for any of your needs . I would definitely come back again

The motel is right on the bay with a nice grassy area and seating, great views of bay. The room itself could definitely be updated but the bed was very comfortable and the shower was good

Disappointed
The location of the property on Lake Superior is very nice. The hotel itself needs work. It is very dated. They advertise breakfast but don’t actually serve it. I would not stay there again.

Wonderful up north hotel. Felt just like hotels that we stayed in as children. A bit dated but clean and staff is friendly and helpful. If you're looking for a slick, high end hotel this isn't for you. You want comfort, up north feel with a chance to sit by the water and relax this is the place!

2/10 Poor

The property was on Lake Superior which was nice. The room was awful. Dirty carpet, no outlets to charge cell phones, and there wasn’t even a place to put the little coffee maker that could reach an outlet. The bathroom had a very tight access point to the shower which would not have worked if I had been bigger. The tub was a foot from the wall. The bottom of the acrylic tub was cracked and it felt like I was standing on a tub with rotted wood underneath. Breakfast was minimal. Plastic wrapped pastries that were not fresh, and coffee plus yogurt. This was not a good value for the price we paid.

2/10 Poor

Room we stay in was smelled strongly of damp. The curtains were also made up of 4 very thin panels so people could see in. The bed only had a sheet and they clearly expected you to use the bed cover to keep warm, which clearly is not changed every time they make up the room. I'm OK with outdated hotel rooms but expect it to be fresh and clean.
