Don't get me…read morewrong, it is obvious the property is kept up and has had a recent facelift but it is a lakeside motel. It doesn't really beckon you in. However once we opened the door we were pleasantly surprise, especially with the patio. Sitting outside you have a view of the lake as well as a nice water feature and an old boat that seemed great for the kids to play on. The other table had a few kids with them and they were able to run around and play and it was enough space that it more than fine as a diner without kids. The menu is pretty simple. A lot of seafood, which is not my thing, but they had a Michigan salad so that is what I ordered. Hubs got the perch sandwich. We got the onion ring tower to start. Food was all really good. They have a lot of fry options which is pretty cool. The star of the meal? The spicy Bloody Mary. No lie, it might be the best I have ever had. I make the best Bloody Mary. I obsessed over it and I tolerate most when I am out but this one was impressive. So much so that I told our server to tell the bartender how good it was. We were here for a late lunch. I have no idea how this place is for dinner or as a bar hang out but I highly recommend lunch on the patio on a beautiful day. 5 stars all the way.

The building has been completely remodeled and is clean, bright and comfortable with great views of Lake Huron. The waitstaff was attentive and efficient and the meals ordered by myself and the three others with me were all wonderful. One friend remarked that his Cod Basket was among the best he had ever had. I know that I thoroughly enjoyed my Bourbon Steak Sandwich. I plan to return and suggest that if you are passing thru the area you give it a chance. I don't think you'll be disappointed. BTW - they have motel rooms too! The restaurant is not open 24 hours, just the motel. I believe they start serving at 11.

New owners, some changes, and some of that original crew are still there if you know when to visit. The crowd is always pleasant, and the service is phenomenal! The photo is a half plate of nachos from 10 or so years ago. So good! I must mention this, because it is important: they do not use Canola Oil for frying, as *most* restaurants do these days because it's cheaper than corn or soy. Eating anything fried in canola makes me violently sick after (3-4 hours of eating.) I wonder if IBS and other ailments of the like might possibly be what I experience? Fyi. Well, it is dinner time and I want a Chicken G'rilla. So I'm going to The Hotel tonight.

After shopping and dinner in town we loved walking around the garden and relaxing on the porch in the evening. The historical house is beautiful and inviting. (And doesn't smell musty!) My friends and I shared the Lexington Suite. The room was very comfortable and clean. We had a relaxing and restful night. Since we were the only guests upstairs, we peeked in the other guest rooms. They were all lovely. The host, Barb, was delightful. She was so welcoming and kind. The breakfast she prepared the next morning was absolutely delicious. Even though you cannot book directly through the website, it was easy to contact Barb via email and reserve our room. She was really responsive and accommodating. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend Inn the Garden.

Tom and Connie were great hosts and more than willing to have a conversation and fill us in about the area. Also nice enough to let you be on your own. Cottage appears to be a converted garage but once you walk inside you will be pleasantly surprised. Main part of cabin has a bathroom with shower and toilet, a very nice raised kitchen with all the appliances you might be used to and a small dining area that sits right next to the bed in this room. Gas fireplace, sofa, book shelf and small closet are here also. This part of the cottage is a little too crowded especially if there are more than two of you. Off of the dining area is a very large addition that has two beds, a couple of chairs and a flat screen TV with satellite. This room is done nicely in white pine panel but could use some comfy chairs. There is also a washer and dryer in this room hidden in a closet.All of this sits on 30 or 40 acres of woods and manicured lawn. Tom told us that there was a creek and a tree house about a quarter mile back in the woods but that some one was renting the tree house back there so we did not go back. We did see a deer right outside our back room on Wednesday morning. You have the option of getting breakfast here and Tom and Connie delivered it to our room at 9 am. Nice touch. For the $95 we paid this was a deal. Would definitely consider coming back.

On Lake Huron. No Lake views - it is a short walk to the shore where my son had a great time skipping rocks. The bathroom was way small - room for a single, a shower stall and the toilet. A small fridge, microwave and a coffee maker. That is about it. But for $53 a night? Perfect!! The owner has a Chinese Crested dog. These things are ugly so if you see it, don't freak out or gasp in surprise. Seriously. But the owner is very nice and the dog was too, in the end. There is nothing else around this area other than an Inn down the street. It is about a mile from the making Village of Harbor Beach where there are a few decent restaurants, one of which has a really extensive beer list and another one with a great cheap breakfast.
