Great location right on the channel, many rooms have sliders with a walkout patio and chairs overlooking the channel, also within walking distance to the beach and downtown.

Our stay was a good one. The room was no frills but very clean. The staff were open and friendly. We had a slider and was able to enjoy watching the boats come and go as we drank out coffee in the morning. Seems that they cater to fisherman, who can dock in there marina. As a result, the property was quiet. When we travel we look for places like this so we can travel about. If you like a clean, quiet place, give this place a good look.

Calm, affordable, clean, lovely view.

Very cute little place, perfect for family setting, a short walk away from the beach, and good places to sit and watch the river at night while you wind down after a long day in the lake.

Retro looking motel on the Manistee river. Simple but clean. Comfortable beds, larger refrigerator than most hotels, plenty of storage space in dresser and under the beds. Glider chairs and picnic table facing the river for nice view of the sunset. Close to downtown and Lake Michigan.

Great location

The location was great.. enjoyed sitting out on the patio watching the boats on the river. The gliding chairs were awesome! You can walk the river walk to town or the beach. The bathroom needs a lot of TLC…we were told that in the off season months they are going to update and redo electrical… Cassandra (?) at the front desk was awesome… The main bedroom was clean and updated.
