Pretty good place to stay while you're in Bad Axe the county seat of Huron Michigan. The place is…read moremedium priced but the amenities are great. You get a board room for free of charge, indoor swimming pool and a hot tub and large exercise room with excellent weight resistance machine with lot of accessories! The cleaning crew in the morning expect you to be up by 6 A.M. and will knock your door and open even if you are sleeping butt naked. You have to let them know in advance whether you want your rooms cleaned daily or every other day. I was naive and said just the towel service and found out that they don't clean anything. The grossest part is that the rim of bathroom washbasin has black stuff growing all around it. I spent twenty minutes cleaning that up with hot water using the free plastic cup. I nearly passed out how much scums it had. Overall it was quiet and lovely. The free breakfast was delicious! But nothing like the European hotels breakfast.

We decided to stay (great choice as the power returned before dusk) as no one had power along the bay and we didn't want to return home. Condo was on first floor. Simple, clean, everything worked, and the view was fantastic. We talked with all the other guest who seemed to be great people and were also enjoying the accommodations. The beach campfires were great (some nights there were up to 3 different fires going) and we enjoyed talking with everyone. I plan to return soon. I hope Paul will give me a deal in the fall......

We had the good fortune of spending our first such trip, to visit Lake Huron, at the lovely Himelhoch B&B. The location in Caro was perfect for day trips to different areas along the shores of Lake Huron. We are also into geocaching and found several within walking distance. Breakfast at the Himelhoch is fresh, plentiful and prepared to order, coffee is hot, and the wrap around porch the perfect setting. The proprietor is also generous with the amenities, offering a hot tub, bonfire, and a fully stocked game room that's always open. Our room was clean, comfortable and cute, bathroom was spacious. I would definitely stay at Himelhoch again!

Attentive, very friendly & superb attention to detail. The property owner, Don is so nice & humble. He has established such a beautiful place to relax. The entire place has beautiful decor, top-tier cleanliness. (Which is very important to me). Super comfortable king size beds, retractable tv's, and large soaking tubs was exactly what I wanted & needed. I honestly wanted to make sure that I mentioned everything that made this a great experience. Since so much thought & consideration is taken into making a great stay. I believe places like this should continue to thrive. Thank you again Don & Miranda! Next time, I will definitely try the outdoor hot tub.

Pros: It's a darling little 50's style motel, cheap, immaculately clean, quiet, NO SMOKE SMELL IN ROOM, very nice manager, great little heater, I paid $40 cash for the night. I was very comfortable and felt perfectly safe. It is conveniently right on the main road. Everything was in perfect working order. And it had well water. I love well water! Cons: I didn't get a receipt (asked for one the next morning with no problem tho), would've been a $2 charge for credit card (I pd cash), no ice, no phone (didn't need one), bed sounds like a dying dinosaur when you sit on it. Not a bed I would recommend for "extracurricular activities". Would I stay here again? Yes! Recommend to others? Yes, if you like quaint old motels like I do! 102311

Very easy to book online and be sure to get a rewards sign up. We did a package that included pizza and pop, a chicken dinner at Zehnders, and a breakfast buffet for both mornings. The hotel is easy to spot next to Bronner's. The theme of gnomes and fairies is so adorable. Staff are awesome! They were so sweet to my daughter and us. Whether it was our waitress, lifeguards at the waterpark, or the front desk. We were able to check in early, so be sure to ask! Our room was one of the older rooms and was one of the ADA compliant rooms, which has larger doorways, no bathtub, a queen bed, and a seating area with a fireplace. The room decorations and everything in it are original. It's very desperately needs to get a facelift. The room was right off of the front desk in waterpark, so walking to the action only took a few steps. I noticed there is no recycling bin. There was a mini refrigerator, but the temperature control wasn't the greatest. Carpet was buckling. The seating area did have a pullout couch, but the couch itself was slippery with the fabric and pretty uncomfortable. Not sure how well house keeping was. There was a Nerf gun instructions paperwork behind one of our bedside nightstands. The water pressure was awesome. The bedding felt clean and the bed overall was comfortable. Housekeeping was able to give us a few more towels off their cleaning cart, which was nice. There is an arcade, but it's definitely not as big as the other hotel down the street. It's very crammed into one room. The pizza and cheese bread was absolutely delicious. Was not expecting that for a kid themed hotel. The breakfast buffet was plentiful, but the buffet items don't change. So the second day we were already kind of sick of the options. They do a nightly movie night in the lobby at 8 PM. If our daughter was older, we definitely would've snuggled up in the lobby to watch the movie. The waterpark was our favorite. Our daughter is just over two, and I was so surprised at how many things she was able to do. She even got to go on a waterslide with us, holding her to go down. Also, she was able to go down a waterslide all by herself, so she thought she was super cool! At the hotel down the street, there's barely anything for a two-year-old to do at their waterpark. She absolutely loved being able to wade in the water with the toddler pool going up to 2 feet. She also was brave enough to go under the big bucket that splashes. We stayed two nights and I think we went to the waterpark at least four or five times and she never got sick of it. There is a security checkpoint for the waterpark. Security will put UV light on your wristband to make sure it's not a fake also go through any bags that you're bringing into the waterpark. Do not bring towel towels, the waterpark provides towels for you. Additionally, they provide lifejackets. There are plenty of tables and chairs all along both water parks, the old side and the new side. The new side wasn't as toddler friendly. There was a small slide she could go down, otherwise there really wasn't much else for her to do. We had a great stay and I think with them updating all of the hotel rooms, I think Zehnder's is the place to be!
