Nice location. Very comfortable bed. Room a little small, but considering the age of the building, adequate. Located in the center of town with shops and restaurants steps away.

Beautiful historic Inn. Staff are very nice. Area is amazing - easy walk to many shops, Lake Huron, park areas and restaurants. On site restaurant... this is our 4th visit. The quality of food has seriously declined. Prime rib was unedible - tough and grisley. Waitress did not ask how our meals were even after seeing we did not eat the meat. Breakfast was okay - bread was hard/ unedible. Not sure why this area has gone so bad, but otherwise, if you are are a heavy sleeper then the downstairs rooms are okay - as you hear EVERYTHING from the hallways and upstairs rooms. I suggest staying upstairs for a better sleep. I know, it's an old Inn.. but there is no soundproofing. Our group of 4 sat with the owner at the bar one evening and he did not greet us, ask how our stay was.. nothing. Disappointing. Not sure if we will return for a 5th visit, although we do love the village and convenience.

Our stay at The Little Inn was the perfect place to reconnect. Our rooms wonderful & the bed & bedding excited our expectations. We enjoyed a fabulous dinner & breakfast was also perfect. Staff very friendly. Only negative would be that when we checked in we were not told about the “happy hour”. We found this out from a retailer in town. We did have a glass of wine on patio but it was unfortunately after 5 so we did not get the deal. We would both recommend this place to relax & reconnect with friends. We plan on returning in April 2026
