The property managers were very welcoming. It is a clean, comfortable and reasonably priced facility close to Ontonagon and the Porcupine Mountains. My dog was also welcome, which was a plus! I will definitely stay here again.

Owners are very friendly and helpful. Our room was "wolf" themed and very nicely decorated with a cozy cabin feel. Beautiful location. We were there when the snow was deep and they kept the parking lot well cleared.

Winter Surprise

Off Season but full occupancy due its charming Owners/Operators, its location [ South Shore Lake Superior ] and its price. An historical facility extremely well Kept-Up and Spotlessly Clean. Will stay there again for next next year's Free-Heel Conclave .

Sweet hotel.

Sweet hotel in between Ontonagon and the Porcupine Mountains. Comfy log cabin vibe. Very clean. Across the street - the hotel has a great beach access with incredible views of Lake Superior and a beautiful beach. Gracious hosts greeted us.
