On the pro side, the grounds and location are excellent as are the staff. They were very helpful and eager to please. On the con side, the physical property is much in need of a complete revamp. The room was dark with only two lamps. We had a unit with a kitchenette. There is no light over the stove and I had to wear a headlight to cook. The only way I could get the pan hot enough to fry bacon was to turn the burner to max. In the bathroom, the faucet in the sink would barely spit out a little water and definitely not enough to get the water hot. The shower was only marginally better and the control knob fell off at one point. Finally, the heater did not work and they had to give us a portable space heater to warm the room.

Very friendly owners. Cozy decor. The room was a bit stuffy when we first got there but it aired out just fine. Nice grassy common area. Owner lit a bonfire at night. Access to a lovely small beach across the road. Pretty pathway through the woods to get there. Just a short walk. Owners put solar powered tea lights in jars hung off branches to light the way at night. Enjoyed our stay.

The staff was super friendly! And the amenities were a little outdated, but for the price and the view of Lake Superior that alone made it a pleasant stay.

We will be back.
We arrived later than we thought. The young women working at the counter were so friendly and welcoming. The room was charming and comfortable. What was really wonderful is that although it is next to the highway, we didn't hear the road from inside our room. The view out our window was incredible. We will be staying again.

Fix the water problems
I have never checked into a motel/hotel where you were handed a gallon of bottled water because of the quality of the well water. I reserved most of the water to fill my water bottles for the next day leaving none for the coffee pot. Big mistake. The water made even the coffee barely tolerable. I could not even feel clean taking a shower. The soap never really washed off leaving a sticky feeling. Could not eat to get to my next hotel to use their shower. Nice location and helpful owner, but the water issues take away from the place.

Fun lodge feel to our room. The main lodge room/lobby was great; filled with games, puzzles, books, and a pool table. Also had snacks, beverages and ice cream treats for sale which satisfied our cravings. We enjoyed sitting on the back patio of our room, that faced Lake Superior.
