Reasonably priced and friendly staff; however, this hotel seems to be a friend to cannabis users; so if that’s an issue with you, you may want to look elsewhere.

My husband and I found the Blue Spruce Motel to be perfect for our long weekend stay in Port Austin. Easy walking distance to everything in town, and to the beach. Our room was clean, there was not a single thing to complain about. Pool was clean…we did not jump in but we did sit a while with our feet in, relaxing.
