Everything was great. We really enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The only issue we had is the beds were way too soft. You may want to consider replacing or adding firmer mattresses.

My family and I loved the comfortable beds, extra pillows, pool, hot tub and the make your own waffles for breakfast! A suggestion: bigger pool towels, and more vending machine options. Overall, we loved our stay and will definitely be coming back!

Amazing Place To Stay

This was my 3rd time staying at this hotel and as always it was an amazing stay. Staff is always friendly and polite. The hotel is always extremely clean. It’s very quiet even when it’s full house unlike most other hotels. I would definitely recommend staying here. I will forever keep coming back to stay here.

Always stay here on time a year in August. This year we came early due to family emergency. The saff are always very nice. Clean rooms and pool is clean. The continental breakfast could be a little better to accommodate kids. But over all its definitely my choice in Houghton lake and will stay there again every summer.

The staff was very helpful and kind. The site does offer a good swimming pool and jacuzzi. The website I believe said a breakfast buffet but really it’s a continental breakfast with a waffle maker. Have to cook it extra as the allotted time does not cook it enough. It was quiet but it was also off season. The only real issue was the constant smell of cigarette use and marijuana use in the hallways, even thought it clearly states those are strictly prohibited within the building. Signs cannot force the rules…
