    Tub wouldn't drain

    We stayed here 4 nights. Location is good. Nice views. Exterior is well kept. Besutiful grounds with benches and firepit to enjoy. Now for our room. Vinal wood look flooring and on part of walls gave it a rustic feel. Looked pretty clean to start off but that didn't last. Room smelled like mushrooms. Yep, fungus. Made me a bit queasy. We gad to turn on the ac exhaust to get some air and by air freshener. Bathroom vent started off so loud you couldn't use it. It did die finally. The floor looked clean but walking barefoot, my feet turned brown. I took a towel and tried to clean it a bit. Then we saw the used cotton swap under the chair by the bed in full view. Lots of dirt and hairs on baseboard heaters. The tub wouldn't drain either so by the end of a shower, we were standing ankle deep. No outside trash cans to put our dogs waste bags. Did you want us to put it in our room trash can? I didn't expect the Hilton but I did expect the basics of cleanliness.

    Sunset view from the front lawn at Crest Motel.  Beautiful!

    Perfectly fine basic accommodation. Clean, the staff was friendly and I loved the charming toothpaste theme.

    Best Western The Hotel Chequamegon - Double Queen

    Best Western The Hotel Chequamegon

    (44 reviews)

    $$$

    Context: MEA Family Get Away - October 2024. Our plan was to stay in Duluth, MN but prices were…read moreexorbitant. So we drove a little bit down the lake to stay in Ashland instead. Location - The hotel is right in downtown which puts it close to various restaurants, fast food, gas stations, and shops. You can walk right to main street where a lot of fun shops are located. You are also right on Lake Superior and can walk to the shore and marina from the hotel. The hotel looks out over the lake and marina, great beautiful views. Building & Rooms - The hotel is designed to look like an older hotel that was found in Ashland and they made sure to mimic many of the original hotel's features. It was a very beautiful hotel building and the fact that it sits right on the lake is a huge bonus. Rooms are pretty roomy. Ours was a suite that included a small kitchenette, separate bedroom, and nice size living room. Amenities - The hotel has a pool but NO hot tub. Bummer. The pictures online showed that at one point there was a hot tub as well but it looks like that has been filled in with concrete and turned into seating area. The pool was heated so it wasn't a total loss. We still had fun. There is a beautiful sitting room off the hotel lobby that is styled to look like something you would see in the late 1800's. Great place for family pictures for a holiday card or just to crack open a good book. Food - Rate includes free continental breakfast. The choices are typical to what you will find at a middle of the line hotel - various cold continental choices with a hot buffet including eggs, breakfast meat, and a waffle bar. They upped their choices by offering Monin syrups and drink toppings for their coffee bar. There is also a nice restaurant that overlooks the lake in the basement of the hotel. We did not eat there but it looked like a nice place. Vibe - Very chill, higher rate middle-class hotel. Many people staying were going out and seemed to be on holiday. Reality vs. Online - Online pictures that I saw on their website matched the quality and condition of the hotel and rooms. It met my expectations. The only downside was the missing hot tub. Boo! Price & Final Verdict - Price was right and the location was solid. This would be a five star review but I'm docking one star off because of no hot tub. That is a deal breaker for our family and it sucks to come off the road after a long day expecting to enjoy a nice hot soak and then not have it. We would probably stay again (just with managed expectations) though if we find ourselves back in Ashland.

    As others mentioned, the lobby and details on the exterior and shared spaces of the hotel are…read morebeautiful. Rich history and they did a great job with decorating the space and creating a nice atmosphere. However, the rooms are typical Best Western (maybe worse) at a very high rate. My biggest complaint is that the Internet did not work at all. When you go to click on the Wi-Fi, it takes you to a login webpage as normally most hotels do, but the page never loads. They were not very clean upon checking in and overall very outdated. For example, the TVs seem to be from 2010. Something else about the room that really bothered me was how close the sink spout was to the actual sink. Which is a weird thing to think about, but it was almost impossible to wash our hands because there was no space under the water. Also, upon booking, we selected a "Lakeview" room and did not have a Lakeview at all. We were facing the Walgreens, which was a little upsetting because I believe that room was $20 more. The complementary breakfast was pretty nice for a Best Western. The pool was very small and it seems like they closed the hot tub, which is out of date from what the website claims. The bar/restaurant in the lower level was nice to visit Staff were very nice and helpful. But overall, I think they get away with charging such a high price because they are one of the only hotels in Ashland. If I had more time I would've booked an Airbnb.

We stayed in the Guest House. It was exactly what we were looking for -- comfort, peace and quiet, but working internet. Felt very welcomed by Eva and Colten. Yummy welcome treats were an added bonus. If you are in the Guest House, plan on taking a bath instead of a shower. First-class bathtub, but the shower curtain will invade your personal space otherwise. Would absolutely stay there again if "in the neighborhood." It's worth a few extra dollars compared to just an average motel.

It's delightful, comfortable and quiet, and it's just a few minute drive to the south shore of Lake Superior (and the awesome artesian well water available 'on tap') and a 25 minute drive to Bayfield, WI. The town of Ashland itself is sleepy and quaint, and sports a great co-op, a tasty bakery, and a wonderful coffee shop, not to mention the variety of shops along the town's main street (not the busy street running along the lake shore, but one block further in). Note: the owners informed us that they're going to stop serving morning breakfasts (next year, I think) because it's simply too much work for them (Tina, mainly) when Brian is away all week working his full-time job at a school three hours' drive away.

That is what Second Wind offers 100 times over. My family, which consists of 2 adults & 2 teenagers: 15 & 17. There is NO TV! It was the greatest thing EVER. We actually spoke to each other, watched the night skies, & played with Mr. Ollie (Oliver) & kitties: Sassy & Sweet Pea. Not to mention the sweet donkey's. We stayed in the Northern Lights loft. It was tastefully decorated with country chic/wilderness ascents. The beds were comfy. Most importantly, the room was clean & no speck of dust/dirt could be found. The bath tub was absolute heaven! It felt like home. We built a campfire outdoors 2 nights. We roasted marshmallows & made brats with the roasting sticks that were provided by Kelly. The fire ring had seating surrounding it for every one & more. Mark hung out with us the first time. The second night, all of the guests, Kelly, & Mark too, were at the fire. We all hung out around the fire & had s'mores. Pretty cool to sit & talk to others in a welcoming, not pretentious environment; no stress. Kelly puts the H in hostess. She would make maps for us with how long it takes to get there, helped us select things to do, & took us on a river walk with waterfalls. My kids & I slid down one on our butts like a slip & slide; EPIC. In closing, Second Wind was exactly what my family needed. If you haven't had your breath taken away by the beauty of the night sky, been greeted by the sweetest Airedale pup, tried to gain the affections of a sassy cat, or had the opportunity to meet some sweet animals, I highly recommend it. My family will return some time sooner than later. We made memories there that will last a lifetime!

Loved the thick red and black "lumberjack" towels, all the sturdy fixtures, comfortable beds and furniture. Mark and Kelly, the proprietors, live on the premises and were very responsive. The inn is in a rural area about a half hour from Bayfield, Wisconsin. There are several horses and donkeys and some cattle on the farm, A dog and two adorable cats. Quiet, peaceful, rejuvenating place to stay.
