Quaint, homey motel in a beautiful setting.
This was our second stay and it was so good to be back! The rooms are clean, the service is excellent, and watching the sun rise on the bay is awesome. My favorite place to be on the Lake. ☺️

EXTREMELY Pricey for a tiny, no frills room with the smallest bathroom I've ever tried to shower, etc. in! That said, the property staff was VERY nice and Welcoming. She really made it easier for me to overlook the negative for the one night we stayed.

Quaint, Simple, Efficient
This quaint motel right on the bay was just what I expected. Efficient. Had all we needed for our overnight stay. We loved the view of the bay. Jonathan recommended Rayz on the Bay for dinner. Within walking distance we enjoyed taking in all this quiet beautiful area has to offer. This motel is not a new and spacious place. But if you’re looking to enjoy the Bay and step back in time to simplicity, this place is for you! We would stay again!

Room was clean, and quiet. But it was not much bigger then a closet, and over priced for what it was.

We stayed here a couple years ago. Clean simple room. Great person at desk. This time the room smelled funky and it looks like the property isn’t as well maintained. The guy at the desk wasn’t impressive when we checked in. We showed up at scheduled time of check in to him telling me it could be an hour until room is ready. I pushed back and he changed it to ready in 20 minutes. Not a terrible stay, but much better a years ago. Better cleanliness in the past.

Perfect little stay out of the limelight
This is a quiet little off the beaten path place to stay. If you are high maintenance, this place is not for you. But if you appreciate the finer things in life, this inn is awesome. The service is great, owner is suoer sweet. Communication was great! Right across from Sandusky Bay, evening fire pit and tiki torch area. Really a cute place! I would absolutely stay here again!

It’s got a nice water view. Room is extremely small but it’s clean. Built in 1954 it has its own personality. Saundra was very friendly and helpful.
