The property was clean and right on the lake. It has a great pool and hot tub too. We will definitely return and stay a couple more nights and go for one of the beach front rooms.
This is a beautiful hotel, and the view right on the water is unbeatable! The staff went above and beyond to help us during our stay and we are truly grateful. Great hotel for families; our daughter absolutely loved the beach and the indoor pool and hot tub! Definitely recommend
Stayed here on our way around Michigan. Just overnight, and we would have liked to stay longer. It was a lovely place, and had a beach front.
Staff helped us with our room snafu, and were super kind
Great hospitalities. The stuff, the breakfast, and the clean and Comfortable. was 10 out of 10. I will definitely come back and highly recommend booking Sugar Beach Resort.
We loved our stay! Room was clean and had everything we needed. Great location and really appreciated the onsite boat and jet ski rental.
Our only complaint would be the rollaway bed we reserved. The mattress was sunken in the middle. Definitely needs to be replaced!
Everyone was friendly and the hotel was always fully stocked. Always plenty of room to relax at the beach, pool or hot tub. Never ran out of towels or supplies. Boxed breakfast delivered to the room each day. Coffee available 24/7. I highly recommend the suites for families of 5 or 6 people. Very spacious. Very clean and well maintained resort.
The resort is right on the beach, and our room overlooked it into Grand Travers Bay. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. Our room and the entire resort was kept up nicely and clean. We wish they would do a little more with the breakfasts, but it is nice to have something. And bring your hiking boots if you need ice. Overall, a very enjoyable visit.
Loved the delivered breakfast boxes. The beach was awesome. Nice to have other activities like Jet skis, para sailing and paddle boards close by as an option. Very family friendly.
Everything was very nice.The staff was very nice.The rooms were very clean.Breakfast was amazing.go there.you will enjoy.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Cleanliness
The rooms are outdated and not the cleanest, they need to have better staff that clean the room’s a lot better there were ants, crawling all over the floors, fruit flies in the room. The beach is absolutely beautiful, but the rooms definitely need to be cleaned better.
Easy check in (we were very delayed). Cute property!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Breakfast was nice with it being delivered evey morning. Wish there was more of a variety for thr options or at least have an actual continental breakfast option. We did request extra pillows on our e-check in and reminded them of it when we got there. We never recieved those extra pillows. We did love that the last hour of the pool being open was adult only! The staff was nice and helpful.
