    I have mixed feelings... I liked that they had an almost full size fridge and a big yard area to hangout and a view (across m-22) of the bay. I am skeptical of the cleanliness of this place! Under the bed was really dirty and we found a pacifier and a pop bottle that were not ours.. just makes me wonder what else isn't cleaned! Ew!

    Roaches

    HORRIBLE place! Once you walk in you're hit with a musty moldy smell! We woke up to find what appeared to be bed bugs. Turns out it was "just a roach" according to the lady who answered the office phone. She was rude and said they get them every year. Will not be back!

    Wow! I'm pretty sure this is the nicest "motor lodge" I've ever seen! While cute and tidy, it doesn't really look like anything special from the outside but the rooms are a delightful surprise! Our room was large and clean with nice new-looking soft carpet, no musty smell (even on a wet April day) and has about all the amenities you need. (We were in room 4) there's a little table and kitchenette, couch, flat screen TV and two nice queen-sized beds. Oh! And a nice little walk in closet! (Nice water pressure/shower; well ventilated room - not stuffy or drafty, etc. My favorite part is that the building is shaped to let each room have a front door and a back door as well as large windows on each side of the building too!!! Lots of natural light and pleasant views even though you're not on the water side of M22. The price was great ($105 after tax in April) especially compared to the $100 we spent last night at a fine but boring (and stuffy) Comfort inn in Traverse City! I'd love to stay here again and will definitely refer friends looking to stay in the area.

    Room

    Clean, big room with that Up North charm. Before I could call to request an early checkin, they called ME to let me know my room was ready and awaiting my arrival.

    Mold under sink

    My wife booked this and it is not good. We apparently had a luxury room because we had an extra roll of TP because our friends in the next room had none. This was a really nice place in 1964 and hasn't been cleaned or remodeled since. Mold under sink, water leaking out of refrigerator and you have to book two nights so you can't re-think what you paid for this $200 + a night

    DO NOT STAY HERE!! #1. Overall cleanliness was very unsatisfactory #2. Stained and Dirty carpeting #3. Stained cushions #4. No working heat for the room (ongoing issue, not a new issue) and solution was a portable heater. #5.Grounds were not maintained. #6.RODENTS... YES, MICE. Multiple mice living in the walls of the building crawling in and out of holes in the poorly maintained building. *When we brought this to their attention and explained our concerns with continuing our stay we ask if they could accommodate any refund for the 2nd night that we would not be using. Mind you, this incident occurred in the morning, and we were vacating we in the morning hours. When the "General Manager " David returned our call he abruptly did not offer any accommodations and continued to say "What do expect you are up north" and "we should be happy with the rates we were given due to Covid" Speaking of Covid... With business being closed and just recently reopening, they had every opportunity to clean and no necessary repairs and updates. And with the Health guidelines that are required for all business to follow I would think they would be in violation with the current conditions of this property. We, left without a refund of any kind and booked the Comfort Inn for the same price which was not only clean, had a great friendly staff, a shuttle service, and an open pool. Most importantly it was RODENT FREE!!

    Nice little motel right on M22. Clean, quiet, VERY comfortable beds, and down-free bedding for those that are allergic. We had our dog with us (65lb. Catahoula,) and the pet fee was only $10 for the night. Total for the night including tax was $105.99. Not bad for the area, especially for a pet friendly place. I'd stay here again.

    Great location, easy access to the west bay. 5 minutes to downtown Suttons Bay and 10 from traverse City. Right cost. Friendly staff

    It's a good place to stay for fairly cheap for the traverse area. Clean but nothing to fancy. Good place to lay your head for night!!

You couldn't find two better hosts than Jim and Linda. But what about breakfast, you ask? That's great too. Our first morning was Almond Ciabatta French Toast with Michigan maple syrup and locally produced breakfast sausage. The next morning was this soufflé sort of dish with hash browns, mushrooms, and eggs served in a small bowl, with bacon on the side. Locally baked multi-grain bread was served with fresh Michigan preserves. Every day, there's a fresh fruit cup with berry yogurt and their delicious Korner Kottage Krunch (see KK website for details). Basic idea though, this is the best granola I've ever had. Otherwise, our room (Paris) was comfy and clean. The screened in front porch is nice for winding down with a good book. The location is perfect for walking around downtown, and is across the street from the beach. A quick drive takes you to wineries slightly North, to Old Mission Peninsula, and to downtown Traverse City. Free wi-fi too. Yelper alert--while sitting inside Korner Kottage, my iPhone yelp app said I couldn't check in because I was 2.2 miles away. Not sure if this is due to AT&T coverage, or the app.

    We've been waiting for Riverside Inn to really find its stride under the new ownership (which "new"…read moreis really several years old now!), and last night felt like it may finally be getting there. Riverside was a favorite of ours when Kate owned it, and over the past few years we've kept coming back hoping to see the new owners develop a more consistent kitchen and, importantly, a menu with an identity of its own rather than one that sometimes felt like it was trying to emulate the best restaurants around the area. Last night delivered. The food was consistently good across the table--the chicken was cooked and seasoned to perfection, the pasta was excellent, and the accompaniments felt thoughtful and well executed. And please, whatever you do, never get rid of the whipped mashed potatoes. Those have consistently been something Riverside does very well. The focaccia with corn was fabulous and butter with honey is way better than previous iterations of butter with olives??? Nobody wants that. Service got off to a very delayed start, but once our server found a rhythm, things got back on track and the rest of the evening flowed much better. It feels like Riverside is beginning to settle into what it wants to be rather than chasing something they're not, and that's encouraging to see. We've been waiting for that. Last night was the most confident and consistent the restaurant has felt in a while, and we're hopeful they keep heading in this direction.

First let me start with the good, the place is absolutely gorgeous and has all kinds of amenities and games for the guests to enjoy. The cabins are quaint and comfortable. That being said, the management and owner are the most unprofessional people I've ever had to encounter as a PAYING guest. My friend had her wedding here this past weekend, and instead of raving about how beautiful the place is I left that place with an AWFUL taste in my mouth and absolute disappointment. If there was a way for the manager to make things difficult on my friend and her guests, she did it. The manager was extremely rude and uncooperative from the get go. My friend came to her with concerns about cobwebs in the cabins and the manger yelled at her and accused her of "looking for problems." She yelled at my friend (THE BRIDE) in front of other guests! There was a complete lack of communication between employees. Most of them were amicable and happy to help but they would tell us one thing and the manager would turn around and tell us another. She handled herself extremely unprofessionally. Also, we had unseasonably warm weather this past weekend and the cabins don't have air conditioning. The resort has fans that the guests can request to be brought to their cottages. The day of the wedding was 91 degrees and the manager threw a fit over having to get the fans out because they had been put away for the winter already. I am in the service industry and I cannot believe the way this woman spoke to myself and many others. I cannot believe she still has a job! When we contacted the owner to resolve the issues he came around and spoke to some guests but never apologized for the manager's behavior. He instead came into one of the cabins-where everyone had moved inside because they have an ordinance that the DJ had to stop at 10pm- and proceeded to YELL and PITCH A FIT (not exaggerating) that we were being disrespectful because of the music level. Not ONCE did he address us before that in a civil manner about the music. NOR did he approach the bride and groom to ask them to accommodate the ordinance. He just burst in (didn't knock) and starting yelling like a crazy neighbor. Had he addressed us in a professional manner we would have turned it down and accommodated his requests. Instead we were all sent to bed at 12:30 like children at a summer camp. All in all, the bride and groom paid LOTS of money to rent the place for the weekend and seeing the bride sob MULTIPLE times over the treatment we all received was devastating. That is NOT how your wedding weekend should go. I will NEVER recommend this place
