Love this resort! We've been coming here for three years now (summer to tent/fish, winter for ice…read morefishing), and we've only had great experiences. Chad and crew are all great, booking for our tent and buying ice road passes in person in the winter are very smooth processes. They have a clean hot shower available year round (only one since their cabins have bathrooms), and washer/dryer. The food at the bar is fantastic, we always get the jalapeño raspberry wings and a split basket of deep fried cauliflower and green beans. Safety is their priority so I know my truck won't be taking a swim in the winter on the ice road. In the summer their dock hands are incredibly helpful and make a day go fishing so much easier (don't forget to tip the kids, they are great workers!). Last, but absolutely not least, they have the best rolled ice cream I've ever had!! The flavors range from chocolatey goodness to gooey peanut butter, but also cover s'mores and fruit flavors as well. Overall I'd 10/10 recommend The Pines for winter and summer fishing!

Nice little stop on a pontoon ride . We ordered burgers and appetizers. The burger was ok . Kinda…read moredry but the onions and cheese definitely helped. My wife's burger was also dry. Otherwise the apps were good . The cheese curds were good. Lastly they offer rolled ice cream which was a treat.

My second year up there, at this resort. Our family has been fishing this lake, year in year out…read morefor over 30 years. Wow! the new owners sure changed this poor old shabby resort around. The cabins have all had a new face lift inside. And finally a new wider dock. The old green pool is gone :) ....and on one of the best fishing lakes in the area. We had near limits on the walleyes, and hammered the sunny s, and crappies. Boy Lake is, and always will be our families funnest lake.

Check in was easy, room was clean, easy to get dogs in and out. Walked the dogs along the lake. Ate…read moreat the Forest Lake Restaurant which is located next door. There was a cute dog at check in that came to see us. It rained the entire time we were in town for the show but there were some grassy places by our room for quick potty breaks for the dogs. Pet fee is per dog, wish they would consider no dog fee. Would stay there again.

Good spot if you need to crash for a night. Not much curb appeal, but the beds are comfortable and…read morethe rooms are clean. Only problem was that the bedroom window wouldn't close. Inexpensive and clean; would stay again if in the area.

Knowing I'd only be in town for a short while, I was on the hunt for clean, convenient and affordable lodging. I can safely say the IM Hotel checked all of those boxes. A former Super 8 now run by Timberlake (note - the old Super 8 Google profile is still live, don't let that confuse you), I was pleasantly surprised to find a recently refreshed hotel. Rooms were a little small, but were clean and had newly renovated bathrooms. LOTS of parking and an excellent continental breakfast with lots of options were only added benefits. Highly recommend anyone visiting Grand Rapids to check out the IM Hotel!

The common areas and hallways are a little sketchy and were sometimes smelly haha. The rooms are…read morepretty small. BUT, for the price, it was perfect for a nights stay. Great bed, working TV, decent shower, clean, cool, free breakfast. If you want more of a "vacation" hotel, choose the Timberlake behind this one - they have a cool pool!
