The wireless Internet service was non-existent and on the rare occasions that it showed up, plagued with a weak signal and unusable. The breakfast was just terrible, with coffee that tasted like hot water. The only reason for two stars is that the room was clean and comfortable and the pool was very nice. For me, however, I'd never stay at this hotel again.

I have stay at other places in the area and this is where I found my comfort. The restaurant downstairs is very consistent. I have had everything on the menu. Every thing was served hot, and fresh, again very impressed with my stay at the Cold Creek Inn. On a more recent visit my family did some shopping at that nice little town. We ate at the Cold Creek, the perch and lasagna were amazing. Service was professional and friendly, I left a bag at the table from the shopping we have done. We already left town. I called the Creek to see if it was found, without hesitation,Zee the owner said she will have it in the mail for me. This is how a establishment operates around excellence. Thank you Zee and the Cold Creek Staff for all the hard work you do. You will definitely be seeing me and my family 1 year from now again. Stay Blessed!

Located near shops and restaurants. Crystal Lake is within walking distance. I would definitely stay here again. The restaurant/ bar (downstairs): Only ate here once during our 2 night stay, but have no complaints. Friendly service. Good margaritas, yet pricey ($12). Live musician played smooth, mellow music. Clean, nice bathroom. Nice gentleman at the door made recommendations on beaches. I highly recommend the Mac and Cheese with seafood!!!

Hoping this honest reviews helps anyone interested in booking with Coastal Suites…read more We try to support small, local businesses as much as possible, which is why we chose Coastal Suites vs. a larger chain that was cheaper in price. Coming in from Seattle, we booked this for a wedding we were attending nearby for one of my boyfriend's best friends. Unfortunately, we came down with Covid and immediately tried to get in touch with this hotel to cancel our reservation. Their line rang endlessly and instead of being able to leave a voicemail, the call ended with a continuous busy signal after regular dial tones. I must have called at least 20 times when we were within the 7 day cancellation policy. I eventually got through to their voicemail and left a total of 2-3 voicemails, in which I stated the issue with their line and not being able to get through to a person or leave a VM, at the very least. Those also went unanswered. By the time the crew got back to me, we were conveniently outside the 7 days to cancel for a full refund. I then asked to get in touch with the manager, as no one seemed empathetic, understanding, or helpful in dealing with this already painful situation. I spoke with Cari, the general manager, over text, as she wouldn't call me...She coldly offered me a 50% refund as a best case scenario, ignoring all the steps I took to cancel and get 100% of the reservation back. She then said 100% would only be possible if they filled the room, which didn't seem fair at all. I then asked to speak with the owner. The next day, I received an email from Anna, one of the owners. She also avoided the phone call I requested and blamed meetings...I, too, am in meetings most of the day, but there is always 5 minutes that can be found, especially given all I had gone through up to this point. She also pressured me into cancelling the reservation so they could try to re-rent the room, but I wasn't comfortable potentially losing 50% of this reservation if they didn't rebook it (they had 2 other rooms that were cheaper available so the odds didn't seem good). I gave her full context of what happened up to this point, and she disregarded all of it, referring back to the cancellation policy. I did explain that I would be involving my credit card company to dispute the full charge as well as write an honest review, since we tried cancelling many times within the cancellation policy. Instead of doing the right thing, she stated "Please note, threatening to harm our business with a false review disqualifies you from receiving a full refund regardless of whether it gets booked, so I do not recommend taking that action." Following these communications, I received 2 more calls from the staff "returning my calls" from weeks prior...each time I re-explained what happened and pleaded for them to do the right thing. At this point, we've been fully credited by our credit card company and I'm summarizing what happened to us in detail so you are fully aware with who you are booking with. Rest assured nothing written here is falsified and I'm only highlighting the "customer service" behind this company. I have full receipts of everything, in case anyone from this company tries to say anything to the contrary. As painful as it was to have to cancel this very important trip, the owners of this location did nothing to sympathize with our situation, let alone take ownership for their flawed phone system and their overall lack of organization/customer service, and all over $200 (total reservation was $400). Please don't book with this company, as our friends were very happy booking elsewhere for their stays.

In the morning, we woke up to snow, and the same gal that checked us in told us she cleaned the snow off our car once and then proceeded to clear my car off again for us. I have never experienced such great hospitality at a motel/hotel, and I travel quite a bit.

Our cabin was small and worked for what we needed as a family. They definitely need some minor renovations like the springs in the pull out couch we're poking through and uncomfortable to sleep on. Weird vibe from owner at times, maybe just an off day? The sunset at beach is beautiful. Expect to bring extra of basics if you have kids like TP, paper towels, linens, etc. Overall, super fun place and guests pretty relaxed and nice too. Right across from good pizza place. Plenty of toys for kids at beach, might want to being a few yard toys for outside around the cabin in cooler days. This is a great location close to sleeping bear activities, crystal mountain, etc. Check out horse drawn wagon rides at local family owned business Fantail Farms LLC! Ten minutes away and super fun! Perfect affordable and private activity for kids. They make sure to point out wildlife they see in the forest and drive by the farms next to the cows. So so fun.
