I liked the Jacuzzi jets in the bath (optional). I wouldn't call the place charming, although the staff was. It was convenient for my overnight need.

Convenient stay for Au Sable River activities. AK was very accommodating for our 130am arrival, room was clean & beds were comfortable. Great water pressure, very hot water if you need it. Place could use new pillows, so best bring your own, and the “continental” breakfast is just yogurt & packaged bagels/muffins. Highly recommend The Grind Coffee shop for variety of coffees & breakfast. The Riverhouse & Ma Deeters were great for dinner.

Solid accommodations for the price. Beds are a bit firm and breakfast is disappointing but really for what they charge, hard to ask for much more. I would stay here again

A very nice place to stay if you need to go to Mio

The hotel is awesome and just a few hundred feet from the river. We visited in late December 2024 so we didn't get a chance to actually go down to the river, but there are other places to get to the river then from the hotel.
