I paid about $50 for one person, one night. I've posted more pictures from this trip to show the cute room. This place embodies everything I hope for in an older motel. It is clean and well-kept, inside and out. If it weren't for wanting to travel around the state I could be very comfortable staying here for a week or two.

They have a variety of bicycles/scooters and small water toys, fishing, and the campfires are wonderful. Great view of Tawas Point and the lighthouse. The owners are willing to bend over backwards to help a person out. There are scads of movies to rent, their advice is always welcome for things to do. There are no phones, which IMO is a plus! BBQ's are available, as is a swingset. There are board games and a small take one/leave one library. Each cabin has a kitchen with fridge/stove/micro/coffeepot, and at least a 3/4 bath. TV with basic cable. No two cabins are alike! This place has charm and personality to spare. Our family has been coming here for 15+ years and have seen the many improvements and maintenance of this place. Highly recommended.
