A very nice, quiet motel in Hart Michigan. Call on your way in to receive your door key code. There is no need to visit the front desk.
Nice, well kept interior furnishings and bedding.
Outdoor seating, picnic table a lovely quiet fire pit with all the free wood you need for a restful evening.
Stop at Hansens grocery on the road in from Hart for the best deli meats and beer and wine in Michigan.
Highly recommend motel
I love the fact that the people are so friendly. The owner remembered me and she was kind and they were so helpful and just a lot of fun to even talk to. She remembered my last trip and where I went and she was just so friendly like having a friend every time I go see her.
Cozy motel, 15 minutes away from Silver lake sand dunes. So perfect if you're spending a weekend at the dunes. Right outside of Hart which is a neat little town to vist. I would say this is a really nice place to stay, it was quite, felt safe, they had activities outside, bonfire at night. And the room was clean, sheets smelt clean!
The place was perfect for my stay. The ladies in the office were very nice and welcoming! My check in was really easy. The room was very clean and nice. It looked newly renovated. For a place on the roadside it is a really nice place to stay at a great value. I'd definitely recommend it to someone and plan on staying here again when I'm up this way.
I like the fact that it was away from the road so you didn’t heat traffic.
It felt cozy. The room was clean and had everything you needed in there.
The owner was so friendly. I have another trip planned to go up there and I will be staying with them for sure great place and great people.
Appreciated that it was clean and had no strong odors.

Property is older but owners are working on remodeling. They were very friendly and when there was a maintenance issue it was resolved immediately. Bed was very comfortable. One thing that would be nice to have available in the room is a place to hang a few clothes.
Nice and cozy, I was able to adjust the temperature, take a hot bath and shower, wrap up in a full size towel, have a cup of hot coffee and curl up and read a good book, then made so microwave pop corn and watch a movie with my husband. Nice size fridge for all my hubbies snakes. Customer service was GREAT!!
The owner was so lovely, I booked the hotel for my festival the wrong date and she was luckily able to move my reservation. New ownership and definitely a lot cleaner than it was and very welcoming! Very pleased with our stay, the only thing I would’ve liked was better curtains or draw string blinds and the air conditioner gets really hot and the long curtains are resting on it and that made me a bit nervous. They had a fridge inside too which was awesome and just an overall very pleasant stay! Definitely will be back for next years festival!
It was better then expected. I went there for electric forest and didnt want to camp so i stayed here. They are redoing the rooms and i got a brand new room with new bathroom. Queen size bed perfect for 1 person. I wouldn't have more then 2 ppl in the room cause its small but comfortable. The oweners were really nice and accommodating.

Check in went very smoothly; staff was very courteous. This motel was clean, but appearance suggest they are in the process of updating/rehabing the property. There was an issue with the tv; my son went to office and the gentleman promptly remedied the matter--he could watch the baseball game!!
I hope they are able to continue updating; great location!

The property was very dated and not worth the money we paid. It was clean however. I would rate it a 2 1/2.

This an older roadside motel that was in proximity of an event in the area we were attending. We typically stay at branded hotels as opposed to these smaller i dependent motels, but very limited choice in this remote area. The motel is old and dated on the outside, but our room was re recently refurbished with new floors, paint and beds. Believe the motel recently changed hands and the new owners were extremely pleasant and caring. Room was clean and had a small refrigerator, microwave and keureg coffee maker (with pods supplied)that came in handy. We had friends that attended the same event but chose to stay 40 miles away, while we were very close to our event in Pentwater. You can tell this motel is a work in progress, but was pleasantly surprised.

Older motel and room was nice. Had nice wood plank flooring, clean, comfortable bed, small bathroom. Shower had new shower head. Water does have an odor of sulfur that is not uncommon to this area. Bring your own bottled water for drinking. Room had nice TV, small fridge and microwave. And a coffee maker. Air conditioner worked very well. Free wifi. Park style grills available for use. You provide the charcoal.
