We were looking for inexpensive lodging for one night while on our way North. Breakfast was included, and it said they had a Sauna, which I am usually skeptical about because often these amenities are "closed". While the rooms are dated (which I don't care about for the affordability), they were VERY clean. I cannot convey that enough. The breakfast was the standard "breakfast included" faire with scrambled eggs, sausage, and waffle batter / makers, but they also provided fresh sliced fruit and the juices were presented in iced carafes instead of juice dispensers and we dined in a beautiful room overlooking the snow covered golf course on cloth table cloths, with cloth napkins and stemmed juice glasses. To our delight and surprise, the heated, indoor pool was clean and well kept, and had a lovely, functioning sauna, and a large whirlpool with adjacent bathrooms that were all exceptionally clean. We will definitely stop here again on our adventures. read more

The following highlights our experience with the Evergreen Resort in Cadillac, Michigan. The purpose of our stay was to attend a wedding at the nearby Fox Hill venue. We booked a 2 room suite about 6 months ago. Secured with Credit Card, Wedding rate about $170. Called the day before leaving to confirm. No answer, left call back info. No return call. Called before leaving, no answer, left call back info, no call. Arrived around 4. Told room was not ready, waited about 10 minutes while they confirmed it was ready. Went to room. It was a small double queen. Returned to desk. Was told they could not explain why the reservation was changed, and that no other rooms were available. Asked to speak to the manager, was told they would not be in until Monday or Tuesday. (It was Friday) Tried to book at another hotel, but due to events in the area, nothing available. Moved into room because there were no other options. Was at the desk on Saturday, someone asked if I was the one who had booked a suite. I said yes. She stated she was sorry and said she had taken one night off our stay, still charging the $170/night for a room that was not what we had reserved. No discussion, no conversation about what happened or how this had inconvenienced us (4 adults on 2 small beds), just a printed receipt. Not even an acknowledgement if she was the manager. I took the receipt, and did not have the time or desire to discuss the situation at this point. Posted policy stated the room would have a turn down service unless we put a "Do Not Disturb" sign out, which we did not. No one came and we had to go to the desk later to get fresh towels. Overall, a very negative experience. Small room, not what was reserved. No real apology. Price was too high for what we received. Shower drained slow and had material coming out of drain.Ice maker not working. Room not cleaned or the linens changed. Ruined what was not just supposed to be a wedding weekend, but also a time of relaxing and enjoyment. I hope that other guests did not experience this level of service, although I am aware that other folks had issues too. But that is their business to take up with the resort. read more

This golf course is a disaster and you should avoid it at all costs, no matter what the price is. The people who work here are very nice but ownership clearly doesn't give a F$&! The greens are dead, tee boxes are dead. I would be ashamed to actually charge people to stay here. Rooms are gross, breakfast buffet I would feed to a pig. If I could rate this a 0/5 I would. To management/ownership: Do better and have some pride! read more

Sadly, this property has gone hugely downhill. The golf course is unplayable, the rooms are mediocre at best, the help (other than Sherry) are useless. They can't even make change. We drove 3 hours to play golf here, and have been coming for my birthday for 20 years. Bought a Group Golfer back in May. They should've contacted us and let us know about the greens, and offered a discount. We believe they're shutting it down, but are not saying anything. To repair the current damage will cost a small fortune. We've heard the owner gives zero shits, so we'll never be back. Sad. Beautiful piece of property, wasted. Hope someone will buy it, and fix it up. There isn't one flower on the course. They grow awesome weeds though. Go elsewhere. It just plain sucks. read more

My family randomly booked this hotel on a trip to see our family here in cadillac/manton and now we come back every time we visit! Always a good stay! Nice big pool, nice serve yourself breakfast (actual cooked food!), and the hot tub is an added bonus. Rooms have always been clean and cozy. My kids said I gotta rate this 6 stars!! Lol read more

Stayed there the weekend of July 24/25 2026. I worked there 50 years ago when it was McGuires and stay there every 5 years when I go home to visit. The place has gone so downhill the past 5 years it is sad. The bar (Curly's) is still the name of the founder. Curly would be disgusted to have such a run down establishment with his name on it. Check in was at 4:00 p.m. and the rooms weren't ready. All staff mentioned how short they were on help. I would stay the staff did the best they could to make the stay pleasant. But the place needed a good cleaning on the outside and some remodeling on the inside. Used to be the premier 5 star place to stay in Cadillac. . . . read more

Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing due to serious billing and management issues. My stay was prepaid through my employer's discount program, yet upon checkout on 3/29, I was charged a second time at the front desk. The staff told me they could not fix the error and that a manager would be available later that evening. I was promised a follow-up call the next morning, which never happened. When I contacted the front desk again, I was told the manager was unavailable and would not return until two days later. For a hotel, it is extremely unprofessional to not have management available to promptly correct a clear billing error. I am still waiting for the duplicate charge to be resolved. I would not recommend staying here unless you are prepared to closely monitor your bill and spend time following up on mistakes. read more

Stopped off season but was amazed by the size of the standard room. Kitchen area with microwave and full size fridge. Gas fireplace. Separate dining and lounge area in the room which was more like a small apartment. Clean and tidy, older resort but very nice. Co.plimentary buffet breakfast was included as well read more

January 17, 2026 Five of us were snowmobiling and stopped at Curleys in the resort for lunch, bartender /waitress was great , we were the only ones in the lounge. It took over an hour to get served , two of the entries of five were good but the hotdog's buns were bricks, the chili I ordered was uneatable as it was like a can of beans dumped into a bowl ugh. So it took one hour and 45 minutes. Don't bother giving it a chance unless you want fresh tasty popcorn and drinks. read more

No cart girl and the halfway snack shop was closed on a Friday. Would be nice to have more than some warm water that was left out.

I only spent one here while I was working in the area. I wouldn't choose to stay here again. The hotel has a slightly funky smell, reminiscent of a nursing home. The carpet in the elevator was dirty. My room hadn't been renovated, and was drab and dreary. The walls were brown, the drapes were dark brown, the carpet was brown, furniture was brown. Every time the blower came on there was a bad odor. So I turned off the air, which made the room stuffy, but that was better than the bad odor. Breakfast was included, which featured scrambled eggs, sausage, bagels, fruit, and seasoned breakfast potatoes. All the employees were friendly, which was the best thing about this hotel. read more

Quite disappointed with our overall stay at the Evergreen Resort. We checked in and went to our room, but I immediately had to call front desk because the room reeked of a foul odor. Disappointing for a "suite" room/experience. I called the front desk and the lady was kind enough to upgrade us to another room and while that room met my standards, we were trying to use the jacuzzi and I was told the jacuzzi in that room was not working. That would've been really nice to know before we started to jacuzzi. To make my night even more disappointing, the jacuzzi started to make noise throughout the nights we stayed there and it interrupted our sleep for a few nights. That was really frustrating. Overall, we would give this "resort" another try because there really aren't that many options here in Cadillac, but I'd be checking another place before staying here again. read more

this place sucks, the staff is beyond rude, the food sucks, and if you have any family come visit while you're in town they say that they're "breaking in and trespassing" read more

Worst hotel stay. Sea urchin looking plants growing out of the toilet. Gross shower floor. Leaking bathroom ceiling. Dirty carpet. Tissues smelled bad. Small room with dim lighting. For a multiple night stay with four registered guests we were given three towels. Bathroom sink was very slow to drain. Ran out of tp and called for service but phone just rang and rang. Door to the room wouldn't latch without slamming it. Random stain on curtains. And we had booked a "renovated" queen! Instead got a dirty room with double beds. Pool was fine, but very crowded without supervision. They don't trust you with towels and only allot you a specific amount of rough small pool towels at the beginning of your stay. Breakfast was okay but time-consuming and the wait professional was kind so make sure you tip. In general, very outdated small room with small fridge and small microwave, which all could be fine for maybe under $99/night, but this whole place was disgusting. AVOID read more

A nice stay and play golf resort in Cadillac. We put together a large group through a group golfer deal ($119 for 2 rounds and 1 night, double occupancy). The resort has a par 71 course as well as a par 3 course. The par 71 course played nicely, the tee boxes and greens were well maintained. The cart paths have not been kept on several holes and the ride got a bit bumpy. There are definitely nicer courses in the area. The food at the snack shack was okay as the hot dogs/burgers are grilled to order. The clubhouse was nothing special. The resort has a restaurant and a separate bar/grill. Curly's was a decent bar and they have karaoke on Saturday nights (very popular). The service at Curly's was pretty slow. Did not try the other restaurant. The onsite accommodations were surprisingly well maintained for how old it is. The rooms are fairly standard and the bathrooms were clean (albeit small). For some reason the local ABC station doesn't come in on the hotel TVs. Overall, a decent stay and play resort. read more

Was disappointed played the spruce run course. Greens were nice some not. Yes boxes same as greens. Most of the bunkers are not taken care of. Looks like they use to be sand bunkers now turning into waste style bunkers. Fairways , most of them I was not impressed with. Just my opinion for what it's worth. I didn't feel the price was worth it. read more

Horrible. Horrible !! COCKROACHES!!!! We have made more than one attempt to get a refund. One email said, "you didn't mention anything at check in." Really ? They act like they would have given us a different room. I would never willingly go to a room in the same hotel. Who would ? It also came to our attention that we were not the only ones with a room issue. We were in the area for a family wedding. We cut the wedding short to make the 5 hour trip home. I only booked this hotel because it was mentioned on the invitation to the wedding. Never again will I make that mistake. I will do my own research. Not only am I out a tidy some. I didn't even get to enjoy the evening, or the brunch the day after the wedding. Bad business all the way around. read more

Been visiting Evergreen (FKA: McGuires) for 23 years. They do a good job. Curly's bar & grill is always hopping. Our group of 20 or so ... and they give us a banquet room. Rooms are being upgraded. They are fine - nothing fancy. Beware of the hot water valves in the showers. They have two positions: Ice Cold & Scalding. Really. The breakfast buffet is ... the usual basics. Hot food, hot. Cold food, cold. Most of the staff are long-timers. They know their job. The know their regulars and us irregulars. They have x-country skiing and wagon/sleigh rides available. Many snowmobilers and skiers. Me? We rent skiplanes at the Wexford County Airport and go play on the lakes. Ever play GIANT tic-tac-toe? read more

This is the fourth year that my husband and I have stayed here for a weekend of golfing. I don't golf, but his friends do and this is where we go every year. This year we got a room that has a little couch so I have something to sit on besides the desk chair that was the only chair in our room last year. Having said that though, I need to caution anyone that sits on the comfortable looking couch to be aware that it is not as comfortable as it looks. It is extremely firm. Rest assured though that after you have sat on it for a little bit it does give a little, creating a more comfortable seat. While the bed looks like it is chock full of lumps and bumps, it is really just the coverlet that is on top that has all the lumps, the mattress was just fine (the looks of it though was a bit off putting.........as is the extremely rusty toilet paper holder in the bathroom). Don't stress out if it looks like whatever you deposited in the toilet won't go down, it will, it just takes a real long time.........they really should get that checked out........seems like I have noticed that on a different visit. Please note that they DO NOT service your room. You must ask them to change out the towels and take away the trash. This was pointed out to me when I called the front desk to inquire as to why it had not been done while I was out for the day. I told the gal that I had talked to that it would have been nice if we had been told that when we checked in. I was informed that there was a sign. Really? How many people enter a hotel and look to see if there is a sign addressing whether or not they clean the rooms during their stay? I sure don't and I travel pretty frequently. A simple "please note that we do not clean the rooms during your stay" while checking in would have been nice instead of a "there was a sign" when you called the front desk to inquire about it. read more

What a dump. I worked here in high school and it once had a solid reputation and a great place to stay. My recent experience felt like a clear bait and switch were I was sold a suite and given a dump. When we arrived we agreed to stay in a different room at a lower rate because our oversold suite was not available. At checkout no documentation could be provided as all arrangements had to go through Expedia. The manager was not available at checkout and any attempts to reach a manager go to voicemail. We were told one rate for our old, musty, leaky room but instead paid top dollar. Would not recommend the entire experience just felt like a scam and any attempts to address our issues with customer service have been useless. The people at the front desk and on the phone just direct me to the manager who is never available. No thanks. read more

They need to do work to get this resort back to where they were at one time. Carpets were filthy all the way through. Breakfast was a plate of the same thing for 3 days in a row. Scrambled eggs, sausage and potatoes. Tennis courts were awful...mildew and slippery. Outside landscaping was severely neglected. We asked if there was a place where our group could gather and play cards, they were not accommodating even though they had all kinds of meeting rooms. Our room keys had to be reset 6 times. No maid service at all, except the last day, they woke us before 8 a.m. knocking on the door yelling "housekeeping". The front desk said this was normal for hotels. Most of the staff were very nice. Too much money for what we got. Will not be back. read more

I have stayed in some hotels that I was like, meh, won't stay here again. This is the first hotel that I was like "oh heck no, time to get out of here." In the hour I argued with Expedia, I was getting congested and breaking out in hives. It smelled heavily of mold/mildew and was very drafty (which we eventually realized was due to the windows being wide open, no doubt to air out the smell). Our king suite was very outdated, flies/assorted bugs in the light fixtures, broken light fixtures, paint missing, discolored tape on the ceiling, and their "jetted tub" didn't actually exist, instead a shower that looks like it hadn't seen a good cleaning in a while. The closet had around 10 old school banquet chairs... so seating wasn't an issue. So after schlepping all our stuff upstairs due to the lack of a working elevator, we got to schlep it right back down on our way to a new hotel pretty much killing any chance of sightseeing on our way day trip through Cadillac (to see my allergist/immunologist ironically!) read more

Don't get sucked in on the deals they offer! Although the rooms at this resort are pretty nice and comfortable the rest of it is really poor. The manager claims to be an experienced golf professional but by the condition of the course he appears to be more of a cattle rancher. The fairways are pastures and the greens are in very poor shape (baked out). With so many beautiful courses in the area in pristine shape this faculty should be passed by. We purchased a weekend deal here on golf groupon and we not only regret it but won't do it again. We didn't even waste our time on the second 18 and chose to play another local course. Each resort offers its own direct deals which we will only do in the future. I assume the management offer deals to increase an apparent badly needed cash flow but I scratch my head as why would you want o expose an embarrassment to bad customer experiences and reviews losing potential returning customers. I recommend the owners and manager go back to Business 101. Again, I highly recommend you pass on the Evergreen Resort and enjoy so many other Pure Michigan alternatives. read more

We were in a dated two-room suite with second (quite large) master bath. Despite the aged look, it was very clean and tasteful with all of the kitchen amenities we needed: mini-fridge, microwave, and even a hot plate! Thin walls for sleeping. Great gas-lit fireplace. This was an excellent spot to stay for a little Nordic skiing. Nicely groomed tracks in trails on site. Lots of activity here, including a sled hill for the kids and the large pool which was nicely maintained. Fitness center was only 4 cardio machines, but a pass for a full gym down the road ( approximately less than a mile) was complimentary. Restaurants were ( as expected) lacking in vegan options, but with some creative ordering and pre-packed foods, I was well fed. There was a hummus dish- surprising & appreciated! read more

We had car trouble and needed a place to stay for the night. We were so happy that we found this place. The staff was extremely friendly. They gave us a great room at a great price. Our fridge wasn't working and they replaced it in a matter of minutes. The pool, hot tub and sauna were perfect. The rooms were clean and updated. I'll be coming back here for sure. Hopefully to play some golf next time. read more

Rooms smelled horrible and safety latch was broken on the guest room door. Door keys worked on more than one room, so people in our group accidentally walked into the wrong rooms. I would not feel safe staying here if I was traveling alone. Food had very little flavor. Giving a two star rating, because the staff was very friendly. read more

6/21/2021 This place was a complete dump. The front desk workers start out your trip with being rude and short at check in. well actually as our not so nice desk worker put it " I don't know why you people cant read your vouchers and see that check in is not until 4pm." so off to the course we went. Wow was this course in bad shape. I am an avid golfer and have played a few courses over the years and this one has been the worst by far. I don't want the course to take the brunt of this review so I will say its playable but that's about it. we ended up calling another local course (Eldorado) and getting a T time there. We played 5 holes before we called it quits on the Evergreen resort course. Once we were done at Eldorado we went back to grab some dinner at the Evergreen Resort but we could not because their restaurant/bar closed at 8pm. So now its time to check in. We were greeted by not one unhappy worker but two. We got our room keys and headed to our room. Once we opened the door it looked pretty normal but then we turned on the lights. they use white (well they are supposed to be white) comforters but one of them had brown stains all over them. Just for fun I pulled back the sheets and WOW I have no words on the type of stains everywhere. I was in the Marines and have slept in some pretty dirty places (Tijuana) but the bedding at Evergreen Resort was disgusting. We went back to the office and the not so lovely lady's working at the desk were not very receiving. I asked for my bedding to be changed and I was told they didn't have time to change it. I then said can you find time and was told no. The second unhappy worker actually disappeared around the corner for a minute and then came back with new sheets and says " here you can change them if you want". Well that did not go over very well. I asked for a refund but they said they could not do that because I paid through Group Golfer ( Group Golfer has given me a credit). We ended up leaving and driving 3 hours back home. I would not even give this place 1 star but it made me pick at least one. This is my very first yelp review and I hope it helps someone make the decision to NEVER go to Evergreen Resort. I have to laugh every time I write the word Resort. This place is the farthest from a Resort that you can get. Well that's my rant and I hope someone from Evergreen reads this and says WTF is going on in my house. Anthony G. read more

My husband and I (and family) have came to Evergreen numerous times. My family used to go years ago when it was originally McGuires. My grandma lives in Cadillac in a Nursing Home, and this hotel has been the meeting spot for our family. It is also dog friendly which is a bonus for our dog loving family as we always bring them with us. They recently renovated the dog friendly rooms and they are very nice! Last time we had the room with 2 Queen beds, mini fridge, & TV with plenty of cable options. We ordered Pizza delivery while we were there from a local pizza place. They let us take a golf cart around the course to check it out even though we weren't golfing, which we appreciated. We used the pool and hot tub numerous times, it's never been really busy when we've used it but this last time the pool was freezing! During the winter and snowy months this place gets packed with people snowmobiling, cars, trailers and guests everywhere. We already plan on coming back in December. read more

Rooms smelled musty and moldy. Beds uncomfortable Lawnmower riding right outside the window woke the kids. Wouldn't stay here again if they paid me. Breakfast was good. read more

We spent the weekend here and used almost all of their services. Starting with a lunch at Curley's which was an excellent chicken wrap. And very good and quick service. The room we had was excellent and well cleaned every morning. The buffet breakfast which came with our room was delicious every morning. read more

Stayed here with a group of 12 for 3 nights. It is a simple resort. The rooms were very nice: clean, well furnished, microwave, fridge. The pool area was a great place to hang out. There is a large "TV room". The indoor pool, hot tub and sauna are large and clean. There are also a few patio areas to hang out outside. We ate in the restaurant and Curly's several times. The breakfast buffet was very good. It changed a little each day. The food was fresh and tasty. Lots of comfort food as well as good healthy choices. Service was good. Dinner's were well above average. I had Prime rib, salmon, a burger and a salad in my four meals. All were good. Comments from the group were positive. I would stay at Evergreen again. Although I won't play the golf course again(I'll post separately about that. read more

Love this place. Went in May 2019 and stayed in the jacuzzi suite. The room was great, clean, and nice location. The pool area was large and clean also. Golf courses were top notch. The bar at the hotel had some amazing food and hilarious karaoke. Everywhere we went at the resort had extremely friendly staff though. That was a relief. read more

Warm pet friendly inviting. Clean nice buffet all the staff was very accommodating. Can't wait to come back!

We live in Chicago and got married in Cadillac MI this past September. Andrea (wedding planner) was absolutely amazing especially being so far away and planning. The rest of the staff from Friday rehearsal dinner/karaoke to the final hours on Saturday night were so nice and amazing. My guests really appreciated their handwork and hospitality. We had a beautiful day outside with the ceremony/tent. Would recommend to get married here! read more

This is the greatest place to take a golf group. The staff is so nice. I mean everyone from the bag boy, desk person up to the top. They were always so happy and willing to accommodate our needs. The food was outstanding. You could not ask for better customer service at a golf resort. We will go back and back again to this place. You won't regret trying this place. Everyone kept saying "They either have the best HR department or this is the best place to live on the planet". everyone was so happy!!!! read more

My fiancé and I planned our wedding reception here for October 2023. We booked late 2022. Throughout our experience planning our wedding Evergreen Resort was horrible. They changed wedding management to two different people, wouldn't hear from anyone for weeks regarding anything about our day or payments. We then got information regarding a June 2023 wedding for someone else's wedding. We then received in email the wrong payment method and anything we met with Jennifer about was wrong. We did a testing of food, and we'll it was all burnt, cold and well not good. I would highly suggest finding a different venue idea for your special day. I have cancelled this and will not be using Evergreen as our wedding reception location. I was so stressed about everything here at Evergreen, canceling it was my best choice ever and our new venue EXCITES US!!! Find a new place or better manager to help with your wedding read more

First room I was checked into: bed was not changed, only hastily made. TV did not work. Furniture beat up. Second room better. Breakfast buffet: food cold, looked like some was held over from previous days. Staff seemed unconcerned about it read more

We have stayed her numerous times and this was the Best yet! We brought the dogs this time, so the drive up out-side access was king. First floor, walked them right out the door just like at home. Animal friendly? Wow, YES! They started with treats at check in, then when we got in the room, there's a food dish, mat for under it and that's just the start. There is a "Pet in room" card for the door if you leave, alerting staff before they unwittingly enter the room where there may be a loose animal. Nice element, but not done yet. There is a freshly laundered dog bed in plastic just like extra blankets would be! Seriously?!? Yup! They take care of the fur guests too. So what about the humans? Big screen TV with tons of channels. Check. Fridge? Check. Boot mat? Check. Bedding? Plush pillows, cloud like comforters and good beds. And the towels? Oh, don't get me started! They are so plush I want to ask where I am get some this nice. Hand towels and shower towels alike, new and great. The heater works. Ohhh does it work! We turned it down and cranked up the AC to circulate and that was a perfect duo. Decent lighting in the room, good lighting at the sink where you need it. Our room has a door so the next one could be joined in without going outside if you needed two. Hot tub, great. Pool, really warm too. Jumping between them didn't hurt. Sauna was up too. We will be back. Again and again. Worlds better than the sands around the corner! read more

Went to their Sunday brunch. Surprisingly really good! We tried the brunch a while back and were disappointed so this time, they did it right. A couple things that could be improved, maybe have more than 1 person hosting because they had a full dining room and a long line. Waited about 15 minutes just to get greeted. The buffet line could have been made a little more organized. Again, they were busy and there was a private room too eating from the buffet, so it got congested there. Also, they had omelette but didn't use fresh eggs, that was disappointing. High points - dessert bar was awesome, fresh salads, soup and cheese and veggie tray, carved items, kind of a steal for the price! Great service from our server too. Highly recommended for brunch option. read more

The golf courses on property are fantastic! The 18 hole course is very challenging. The front is tight and the back is more open and you can grip and rip it off the tee. The Norway course is a lot of fun, and a great mix of shorter par 4's that require accurate shots. The restaurants are very clean and have great service. Curly's fish fry on Friday are to die for! Overall a fun friendly facility with great amenities. The remodel did wonders for the overall feeling and look of the resort. Will definitely be back soon! read more
