An adorable, pristinely clean and tastefully updated room that had everything we needed. They thought of everything. It was a bit of a throwback, being of the 1960’s Motor Inn style, but with modern amenities.

Room was spotless. Accommodations all good. At $185 for one night (Halloween) well past peak season, I thought it was overpriced. Maybe I’m just old. The bottom line…. I WOULD come back!

We really enjoyed our stay at Pleasant Valley Resort. Close to Lake Michigan and Arcadia Bluffs. We were in Cabin #9 and enjoyed the property amenities - including Hot Tub, Sauna, Cold Plunge, grills, fire pits, lawn games and pet friendly. Our cabin was missing toilet Paper when we arrived, but the host was very responsive. We would definitely stay again!

After my parents moved to Arcadia, I was looking to find a place nearby to stay when visiting with family. Pleasant Valley was just the ticket and it was perfect for my stay. Right on the main road and across from a great restaurant!

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
This facility advertised deluxe room. This room was anything but. Very small, old and inexpensive bedding, no place to hang clothing or anything else, poor lighting for reading, no TV channel lineup, no instructions of use and difficult to use if not familiar with cable providers. No plans to repeat a stay.

When I looked at the review I saw it was a 10! I thought oh, no place is a 10, well this place is. Super clean well designed and provisioned. This is an older motel that has been upgraded. Great comfortable bed, nice kitchen with all the things u would need to cook a meal or two. Efficient bathroom that is super clean and has everything u need. Such a nice surprise! The check in is done on your phone and it went to junk mail folder. We got it straightened out pretty quickly. Just be aware more and more hotels are going to this system. I didn’t pay attention when it came in. I’ll stay there again when I come thru.
