Keep in mind that there is no AC for those few days in Michigan that you may need it. Also all rooms do not have adjoining bathrooms. Some rooms must use the common bathroom down the hall. The hosts were very accomadating and the breakfasts are well prepared and delicious. A very enjoyable stay!

My wife and I came to Greg & Cindi's for a fall color getaway on the recommendation of a friend and…read morewe were not disappointed! Warm hospitality, wonderful accommodations, many attractions nearby, great breakfasts. We visited the Arcadia Bluffs Country Club, hiked on some of the beautiful local trails overlooking Lake Mi, checked out Sleeping Bear Dunes, Glen Arbor, and local wineries. Greg or Cindi can provide good advice on other things to do as well. (PS. Don't let the shared bathrooms on some of the rooms be a deterrent.... it is a very nice setup and was not a problem especially since there were two separate nice bathrooms available and sinks in all the rooms.)

The Dempsey Manor didn't have any vacancy for that night, but the Ramsdell did and I'm so glad!

Enjoyed a cup of coffee in the morning in this little tower-nook. So novel!

No frills, budget friendly, very clean, centrally located, family run motel by Bear Lake…read more My wife and I stayed for two nights. The Inn is a great home base for visiting nearby Traverse city as well as Empire to enjoy the beautiful Sleeping Bear Dunes. The Inn itself is situated in a small town of only 500 people, friendly folks everywhere. There is a breakfast spot within walking distance called Lakeside Cafe. The Inn is owned and operated by a veteran and his wife, we arrived after 9pm on a Fri and the wife greeted us with a smile and gave us some info about local attractions. The room had two queen beds which were very comfortable. The room was spacious, very clean (in fact one of the cleanest hotels or motels I have stayed in), flat screen TV with numerous channels, reliable wifi, there is also a pool which can be used during the summer. The only cons are the Inn is located on highway 31, which although not a busy highway, you can hear cars during the day and night. Our room was the 2nd closest to the street but not all the rooms are the same distance to the road. For a little over $80 per night including the 11% tax from the state and city, this spot is very reasonable and comfortable.
