Rates have gone up a little and have kinda been shocking with how high theyve gone up. Other then that. Its really a great quiet hotel that I recommend for people looking for an affordable hotel. Would really recommend to the hotel to please provide Pack - N - Plays to children. It's unfortunate to have to pack our own when all surrounding hotels in TC offer them

Wow! I am very impressed with our stay at the Stone Waters Inn. It came recommended to us by my…read moreparents who stayed before the ownership change and said it was nice but could use some small upgrades. It seems as though the new ownership has made most all of these upgrades. To begin, the booking process was a little weird. I called and the woman who booked me seemed a little lost. I asked about a weekend three weeks in advance and she explained the few options available (ranging from $109 a night to $169). I tried to book the $109 room but after much back and forth, she kept figuring out most everything was booked already so we ended up having to book the fancy Vineyard Suite. When we arrived, the only thing I really didn't like was that there was no staff to greet us but we did call and get a hold of the manager who explained what to do. Our room door was left wide open for us with the key in the knob, which we didn't like at all. We felt really uncomfortable upon first getting into our room - like maybe security was loose and anybody could have come in and done anything to the room first. That was the only part we really were unhappy about. As for everything else, we were amazed. The grounds and building are stunning and everything from the lobby to the room were kept very clean and polished. The lobby had a lounge, pool table, popcorn machine, and a covered patio hangout. The manager welcomed us to bring alcohol or drinks if we'd like and supplied wine glasses and everything. We had a lot of towels and they were very nice quality as well. There was a nice bed, pretty comfy, and lots of blankets. Our room had a fireplace and jacuzzi, which you can imagine, I used right away. There was a mini fridge, a radio, a Keurig coffee maker, and many different other small amenities that were nice. The night was very peaceful and quiet. I loved having a ceiling fan as well. The price, $169 a night, actually was very worth it. We definitely agreed that we didn't want to leave the suite. The only other thing I didn't like was that some of the windows didn't have blinds that would close all the way but that was a very simple fix with a small sheet hung over the middle. We will definitely be back and it is very much worth spending the extra few dollars to pamper yourself for the Vineyard Suite!

We asked the woman at the front desk to correct the charge based on our email quote and she told me it was Choice Hotels cost and she couldn't fix it and if I have an issue I should call them. So we called Choice Hotels and the first person we talked to was not helpful and told us we had to join their travel club to get that price. We then asked for a supervisor to speak to and after a very long wait, we finally got Nami on the line and again after a long discussion (1 hour and 25 minute call) she called the hotel to ask the manager to adjust the cost to meet our original quote. The next morning when we checked out I requested a copy of our bill and was given a slip indicating a credit. It took 3 more calls to the hotel over 3 weeks to get the actual refund. To top it off, the hotel was gross (bed was clean I think) and the people were very unprofessional. Stay anywhere else!!

Stayed a weekend here once nearly 20 years ago. Found it acceptable if a little shopworn. Was back…read morethis week and had roughly the same impression. There have been updates--room looked recently painted, there was a stove/sink setup in the room that looked new, bathroom was recently retiled. There also are spots of unpainted wood, some caulk that is failing, countertop peeling off. In the bathroom, a large countertop sink leaves little space to set soap or other toiletries. It takes a very long time to get hot water. Some of the drawers in the dresser are missing handles, or have bottoms dropping out. Still, the room was clean, the bed was comfortable if a little soft, the shower is large, which is almost never the case at older small motels. To hew closely to Yelp's definition of star ratings, I have to go with two, as I definitely have had better. But I've had worse too, and I wouldn't rule out a return.

Tamarack Lodge is a very nice but subtly aging property on the water in Traverse City…read more We decided to shift away from the neighboring Days Inn for a nicer stay. The policy is rigid. Don't book until you know how long you want to stay. No refunds. We had a one bedroom condo on the main level. Comes with one dedicated parking spot and extra parking on the west side of the lot. The styling is craftsman and is holding up nicely despite the harsh winters and water. Rooms are nicely maintained but the furniture is showing some wear. It was clean and well organized and it felt safe. Access to the beach is easy and each unit has a patio. Views are stellar and it's well worth the price. They come by to clean rooms and tidy up every day. The kitchenette is helpful and the fireplace is also a fun compliment to the space. Staff at the front desk is not award winning for personality but they got us what we needed. Bar was never open and the sister property down the beach has a restaurant and rooftop bar should you need that. We would return.

So many stairs, we had to go down a level, then up a short flight of stairs. Nothing is clearly marked. Trying to navigate from one area of the resort to another was an adventure. Apple Maps is confused with this place. The food was ok. The service in the restaurant was ok. Do know that there are no free refills - so you won't be surprised to find a $10.50 charge for 3 iced-teas!! Many foreign employees and language is a barrier for many of them. Our room was clean and spacious. Unfortunately, there is an underlying odor of must/mold which is strong in the bottom level. The views are beautiful. The Legend and Cedar River golf courses were nice to play. It was a nice time, but I do not think I'd choose to return.
