Motel is convenient , the rooms are clean but the AC doesn't work and the room smells damp as well as the carpets when you're walking on them. Great for 1 night stop after driving a long day.

This hotel is on a beautiful beach with lovely sunsets. The owner is friendly and works hard running the place. The food is good, but they're only open for supper. The room was fine for our one night stay. The rate was reasonable, we would return. Thanks!

As a property along the North of Superior route, this was really pretty good! The view made it much nicer than other places we have stayed and I would pick this location again. The nightly fee seemed kind of high, but maybe it was just because if the season. There was a restaurant on site that looked decent and well patronized.
View from our room!
