Older building but renovating. Smaller family run Inn but very cozy. Room ovetlooked the docks and lake. Perfect! Bar and restaurant attached on the boardwalk. And nice walk after dinner at the waterfront park beside the Inn. So happy with this find.

Sheryl, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was a beautiful place to stay. The staff was very nice. Had a problem with losing hot water while I was in the shower. My boyfriend asked how long we would be out of hot water and the response was that it would not be long…… all said and done, an hour later I had to pack up my stuff then go downstairs and up another set of steps to finally finished my shower! Then had to pack everything back up and go back to my room..it took them over 4 hours to get hot water back. The staff was wonderful. It kinda seemed that the staff was not notified about the hot water heater being replaced.

Cute Little Inn

We had a really nice time here. We've stayed here before and came back, so that says something. A nice little place close to the lake, casino, and the amenities of NW Indiana and SW Michigan.
Reed, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

Careless

It's a small place and the service staff was attentive, so I'll give them that. But otherwise, the place was defined by carelessness. The remote control in my room was missing. The inside of the cabinet was dusty. But most of all the curtains and blinds in my room just didn't work. When the air conditioner was on ,they blew them up and out so the first floor window was functionally not private. And they did not keep the sun out whatsoever. The room was bright by 6am and I was unable to get a full night's sleep.

Checking in was awful as they tried to sell us a more expensive room with all kinds of excuses. Fine if you want to upgrade us for free, but don’t start with all the nonsense. The rooms are in need of an update. Would not stay here again.
