Serenity of the sound of Lake Superior when sitting on your private deck. The walls of the room are thin so you can hear your neighbors but overall a very nice place to stay. Staff was great!!

The location is fabulous . The room is small and the carpet needed cleaning. Food service offering in the morning is not worth using. Packaged oatmeal but no milk to put in it. Pre packaged muffins hard to understand in an area known for its baked goods. The balcony was great

Absolutely amazing view! Even better than the pictures. It was quiet and we enjoyed time on the balcony watching the birds and the lake. Enjoyed the sound of the surf. We did not have much interaction with staff but our needs were met. It would have been nice to have a restaurant within walking distance but it was an easy drive to restaurants, state parks and hiking trails, and even local wine.

Our room was small but very clean. It had all the usual amenities for a motel, plus a small refrigerator and microwave. Beds were very comfortable. Balcony overlooking Lake Superior was small but still much enjoyed; as others mentioned, the balconies of each room are close. We had a superb breakfast at a nearby restaurant which provides a 10% discount to Cliff Dweller guests. We arrived late, and the staff had contacted us in advance with instructions for the key (on which they followed through).

All good but limited number of tv channels did not include PBS which is an important oversight. WIFI had only two bars which did not permit streaming on ROKU. Otherwise we very much enjoyed our stay and happily return.

Beautiful view of the lake, comfortable beds, and a clean room. Very friendly staff at check-in. Balcony view of the lake is wonderful, but there is no separation or privacy. When others are out on their balcony, it is as if they are sitting right outside your sliding door.
