I've been back many times over the years, and still impressed. Bring back the not so sweet fish tacos.

The service, the conversation, and her work ethic definitely shines. They should keep this one. I've been to several places in the area and definitely by far she is the most welcoming bartender we have ever encountered. We just had a couple cold ones and played a little bit of Keno, but the kitchen was busy and the bar filled up in waves. Very busy, very dead, very busy LOL. Put this on your list in Gladwin.

This property has three homes which can be rented at the same time for a large group, which is what…read morewe did. This review is specifically for the Lake House and the grounds in general. Pros- there was plenty of space for our group of 20+ people to spread out on the property.  We had plenty of room for parking and were only a mile from a grocery store when we needed supplies. There were plenty of bath towels for our use and the AC on the second floor worked well.  There were board games, books and yard games for our group to use. Cons- the property felt rundown and neglected.  The lawn was too high when we arrived and was never mowed during the week we were there. Since we planned to spend a lot of time outside this was disappointing.  The deck on the Lake House is in need of serious repair.  There were pots full of dirt and weeds scattered around and the landscaping was so overgrown we could barely see the lake when sitting on the furniture.  There are some very soft spots in the decking that I was worried someone might actually go through.  The kitchen has an apartment size stove/oven which we were not expecting. The oven wouldn't even fit a standard baking sheet. Our kitchen seemed to be missing a lot of items: can opener, spatulas, a large bowl for mixing, sauce pans, etc.  We also didn't have a single clothes hanger in any of our closets or any floor fans, even though we were told there was at least one for us to use. We were told things get moved around from house to house when groups stay there, which is understandable. I think they need a list of basic items that should be in the house when the cleaning is done so it's ready for the next guests though. Luckily we knew the people in the other rentals and could borrow things from them. The AC on the main floor did not work well. The showers/bathtubs need to be updated.  The grout was stained/dirty and the shower head on the main floor bath was the smallest one I've ever seen.  The living room was a good size but so full of furniture it was hard to move around.  There are also electrical cords running along the walls on both sides of the TV.  You can tell they had to run those for the TV hook ups which is fine, but could be a problem if you have little kids in your group.  None of the outdoor spaces on the property were very well kept up or inviting places to hang out. Overall I feel like it was a good home base if you are going to spend the majority of your time offsite. This property has tremendous potential and would make an awesome small event venue if repairs were made and the grounds were properly cared for. If I was looking for a property for a group of 20-25 people I would stay here again because it is hard to find a place to accommodate that many people. But if I were looking for a place for just my family I would stay elsewhere.

What an incredible stop on our trip! We kind of took a gamble on this, one because for whatever…read morereason their website wasn't coming up on our phones and the google review was only one picture. But it paid off big time. For starters Ernie and Vivian were incredible host, honestly made us feel right at home the second we walked in. The Inn itself, is the perfect combination of old and new, well preserved antiques with modern amenities. We stayed in the spinning wheel room and it was very nice. Of course seeing threw the tub, into the bathroom, from the bedroom, wasn't a typical accommodation we understood that it was a temporary fix. They are planning on remolding the bathroom throughout the house soon. On the other hand, the bed was pretty rough. I hate to mention anything negative about this place but I had to at least prepare you for your sleep. Saying it's hard, would be an understatement. If they were to update the mattresses around the time they are planning on the bathrooms this would be in my top 3 B&B's we have stayed at. It's still in my top 5, but the bed is holding it back. However once you wake up crack your back and stretch out a bit you quickly forget there could've been anything wrong. The breakfast was a decadent feast with homemade jam, whipped cream, and even maple syrup. Then to burn it all off, there beautiful home is located on 127 acres of even more beautiful woods equipped with trails for easier walking. We will definitely be staying here again if we are even remotely close to this area again. Thank you Ernie and Vivian!

We only had one drink, she left the bill in the glass and never returned to cash us out. She knew we were only having one drink. We had to ask to be checked out and she never said thank you all she said was here's your card. Apparently she doesn't care about making money as her tip could've been doubled from the $2 we left her. Tips are still based on service not to be expected. No one said goodbye as we left. The establishment was mostly older people. The decor hadn't been updated in any way and felt like it has looked like this for many years which made it look tired and worn rather than the vibe of a thriving business. Historical doesn't necessarily mean run down.

First of all, I like to start with the positive. Tamra in the dining area was an excellent server…read moreand the food was wonderful. We stayed in the JFK suite. When we arrived, we went to put things in the refrigerator and it was full of black mold. The hotel took care of it immediately and brought a smaller one. The sinks don't open and close so you can't keep water from draining in the bathroom, if you needed to do that. There are no microwaves allowed in the rooms so we had leftovers and couldn't warm them up, unless we went all the way back to the front desk and they would warm it there, but it would be cold by the time we walked back to our room. The ceiling are filthy as you walk around the building by the a/c and heating vents. The tiles are also warped. The outside stairwells smell like musty old basements. This place needs a good vent cleaning and extreme renovation. The staff is the only thing that kept me from putting 1 star. Last comment, no hot water in the morning. We tried at 6 am, 6:30 am, 8 am and finally gave up at 8:15 am. Don't waste your hard-earned money.

It's the best of both worlds as far as location. The resort is clean and you feel very at home with all the personal touches. I can't say enough about the big house.
