Dont waste your time
By ,
We stayed on the camp grounds. The owner is very short when you ask him basic questions. We have a 17' pop up camper, so we got a water & electric site. $96 for 3 nights, you have to pay for the showers. FYI There is NO dump station, our camper has a casette toilet you cannot hook it up to a sewer site, he was nasty when we asked where it was said it was all explained when you made the reservations no its not, it just says they have sewer hook up, but all other campgrounds we have gone too still have a dumpstation. Also the website doesnt say it until you get the conformation email that you are not allowed to bring wood, ignore this, we had to buy wood because of that but everyone else brought theres in. The hook ups for the sites are way to far apart. The water was 25ft away so we had to go buy a new hose(we actually needed one) but that is beside the point. the only good thing is the bathrooms are brand new,but you have to pay $.25 for 6 minutes of shower time. Other than that its a mess. You cant fish, because of all the muck in their "lake" Its way out of the way for shopping. If you just need somewhere to land at night after Cedar Point or something maybe but if you plan to stay at the camp DO NOT go here. I would suggest East Harbor State Park or even Cedarlane Park.

We will come again

It's no holiday inn. This place is clean and quiet. It's a little old, but if all you want is a clean place to sleep jump on this one. If you want to stay inside all day and watch TV I guess go someplace else. But for me and my wife We will come again.

dont miss this gem!
By ,
A comfortable, cozy, & family run motel on a beautful lake with a fire pit. A place where hospitality, service & your enjoyment are # 1. Don't miss this oppertunity to get away from it all at a very decent price. All sorts of ameninities available some you may never have thought of or asked for.

Clean, Quiet and Affordable
By ,
This is a motel, so I wasn't expecting the Ritz-Carlton. The staff was friendly and the room was clean. Lots of clean towels. The bed sheets were clean and spotless--the beds were a little hard and slightly uncomfortable. The room was quiet; there is little traffic on E. Main St and we couldn't hear our neighbors in the rooms next door. There isn't a view of the Lake from the room (well at least not from our room), but once you step outside there is a nice view from the parking area. The motel provided directions to all the restaurants, the beach, grocery stores and lots of shopping. The best part was the motel was approximately 1/4 mile from Marblehead Lighthouse. The main reason we chose this motel was because it is close to the lighthouse.

Great basic lodging!
By ,
We stayed during the off-season and were thrilled with the great rate and convenient location. The host could not have been more accomodating--his advice on local attractions and eateries was invaluble! The room was good, clean, basic accomodation with all the necessaries. No luxuries--if you want to spend the day in your room relaxing and watching videos you probably want to choose another hotel. But there is so much to see and do in this area, who wants to hang around at the motel all day?

We will never go back without a u-haul to redo our room!
By ,
We were so disappointed when we saw this place. The description we read said, "incredible premier vacation spot" and it is just about a dump. Our room had no pictures on the wall, no curtain, just an ugly blind, and a very small old tv on a tiny, ugly stand. The carpet is extremely thin but easy to clean I suppose and the pool is in the back yard of the owners...right out their kitchen window how tacky! It has to be the smallest public pool we have ever seen. There is a warning label on the bathroom mirror not to steal the towels as they are inventoried and we wondered who would steal them, they are extra thin and very scratchy! The coffee is in the bate shop across the parking lot and we had no patio except out the front door on the sidewalk which is where we took our tiny, inside table! The picnic area is nearby in a shady area with Lake Erie across the street however the dumpster sits right next to the picnic tables! Our ice bucket was a potato salad container and there is no lid on the toilet!! We had hoped this would be the start of an annual trip but we are so disallusioned. How could this be $88.00 plus tax per night for three people????? We think it is worth $50 plus tax per night for three. We feel we are victims of false advertisement. If you are just looking for a place to sleep it is ok the sheets are clean and the bathroom works! But it is by no means an "incredible premier vacation spot"! We would call it primitive with another family's pool!
