Our hosts were very friendly and welcoming when we arrived. That night they had a cookout for the the guests of the motel. Later they had a camp fire for anyone to sit by. Across the road was a path to walk to Lake Superior. It is an older motel but very well maintained. Our room was very clean. Enjoyed our stay.

Very friendly helpful owners. Place is well maintained. It worked perfect for my wife & I for overnights while touring the porcupines. It’s small but sufficient for the 2 of us.

The motel is lovely and charming. I love the retro vibe and themed rooms. The owners are so nice and even provided s’mores at the fire pit on the pretty lawn. Loved their beach as well and got to see a bit of the northern lights!

Such a cute place! Wish I’d stayed more nights. I was in the “wolf room”! Bedspread, clock, pictures all of wolves. Great bonfire at night. Loved the beach access for sunset. Owners felt like family.

The rooms were so cute and homey. The bathroom was clean and the tubs looked brand new. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming. I regret only staying for one night in the area. I could have easily spent the whole week there. Overall a wonderful place to stay.
