Check-in was fast and seamless; room was clean and comfortable; proximity to Lake Superior was nice. We enjoyed watching the waves from the little slice of beach the hotel had behind it; there is a also a bonfire pit and quite a few comfy outdoor benches here, as well as some picnic benches nearby for folks wanting to enjoy a picnic outside. As far as restaurant options locally: the hotel is attached to one of the few restaurants in the area, so that was a good fall back on option. We passed on eating there after reading some of the reviews, choosing to go into downtown Ontonagon instead (check out Syl's!) and Antonio's (about 20-30 mins away off of 64 & 28). Again, it's just nice to have the choice nearby if you're tired of driving. Reasons this hotel didn't get a solid 5 star review is: first, the staff are not particular friendly, never greeted us all the times we walked past/obviously had questions. We had to initiate conversation with them. Secondly, although the hotel had signs saying masks are required by state mandate, some staff were not wearing masks, relying on the plexiglass barrier only.

I can't say enough good about Connie, Kathy and Bob in the morning buffet breakfast. Connie & Kathy were at the front desk in the morning when we walked out and were so sweet and had big smiles on for the guest. Bob made sure everyone was happy and had whatever they needed. The waffle batter dispenser ran out and he told me he'd be back in 30 seconds. He was back in 27 seconds. What employee goes beyond their duties to please the guests? BOB DOES ! He was so pleasant and you can tell he enjoys his job. The room was very clean, it had a very nice bathroom with a nice granite vanity. The beds were very comfortable, the TV had many channels to accommodate everyone's wishes. The A/C worked well, something I couldn't say about other hotels. We didn't use the hot tub so I don't have a comment for that. We were visiting friends while there so we didn't eat in the dining room at night. The colors were spectacular in "The Porkies" we're so happy to stay at this hotel. We will be back !!!!,

We passed by an impressive frog symphony each evening on our walk to the beach to see the sunset. Others made campfires on the beach to watch the beautiful sunsets. Most of the time we walked along the beach shoreline with no one else in sight. The cabin is nicely landscaped with hostas, purple iris, miniature roses and other flowers. There is a sliding glass door which opens to a nice deck with a charcoal grill. We enjoyed the free nightly popcorn from the Inn which was a bonus. The Fox Den cabin has a ramp up to the front door. Inside is a cozy kitchen, dining area with ceiling light and fan, a cozy living room with a sofa, TV, and cozy gas fireplace. The bathroom is roomy with a hot shower. The 2 bedrooms had queen size beds and a dresser and closet. The kitchen has an electric stove, toaster, coffee maker, and microwave. Some small improvements could be a larger Tv with better sound and add on the Hallmark Movie Channel, ceiling fan in both bedrooms, some cute water glasses, and a small cutting board. Overall Fox Den Cabin at Scott's Superior Inn and Cabins is a cozy cabin on Lake Superior with beach access and good location to explore many waterfall hikes including the Porcupine Mountains State Park trails.

Thank you Rick and Kitty!

I really wanted to give this place a great review. We booked the large cabin for our family of…read moresix. When we arrived, we found it very charming. This cabin has everything you would need to enjoy a lengthy vacation. A full kitchen, full bathroom, comfortable beds, and plenty of room to relax and enjoy the cabin, when you aren't outside enjoying the beach and lake. Along with us, two of our friends and their families also booked cabins for the same time. The other cabins are smaller and so without the perks of a full bathroom, and full kitchen, but still nice enough to serve the purpose of enjoying a lakeside, beach vacation. We all noticed immediately that the cabins were in need of much work. Floors are slanted, doors are swollen and unable to close, furniture is old and so it was quite worn in. After a few days we also noticed that there were a few times that the water stopped working. Although the owner was quick to remedy that situation. To be honest, we didn't even mention, let alone complain, of the other problems with the building as we just chalked it up to wear on the buildings over time, as well as the major storms they had that probably caused some damage over the last year. Again, we were all there to enjoy the beach, we felt no need to complain. My low review comes from what happened after we left. After following all requested procedures listed in the building for check out (except for I accidentally left the coffee machine on! OOPS!!), we were called by the owner, Rick, the next day but had missed his call. After some phone tag trying to reach Rick, my husband did eventually speak to him. What was said was completely mind blowing! Rick took an aggressive attitude with my husband, blaming broken door jams and broken furniture on us!!!! We did NO SUCH THING! We left that building exactly as it was when we arrived. As mentioned before, the doors were swollen from humidity, which you could feel thick in the air, when we got there. The doors would not shut...so we did not shut them. The furniture was old, there was one chair that you sank in when you sat down...so we did not sit in that chair. He mentioned that when changing the sheets of one of the beds that it felt damp so "we must have a pisser in the family"... first, no one wet the bed. Second, even if someone had, a professional business owner shouldn't go around calling their guests a "pisser". Needless to say, the conversation between my husband and Rick became heated. And we went from wanting to return and even recommend this place to people, to never wanting anyone we care about to have to deal with these people. Completely uncalled for, unprofessional, and overall terrible customer relations. I would not recommend giving Rick your business.
