It was a great place to stay. The lake shore grounds were picturesque with restaurants on each end and a boardwalk in between. The dinner and service at the Bluefin Grille were excellent, as was the breakfast at the Coho Cafe.

Comfortable stay on north shore
This was a 3 days stop over on a longer road trip. The resort is big with lots of amenities. Our stay included 4th of july so was very busy. At times was difficult to find parking and restaurant reservations were tough. One of the bedrooms had an amazing view of lake superior. Reading a book while looking out the window was a perfect combo. The lake walk was also fabulous. We didnt bring our dogs but seems to be very pet friendly. There were some small maintenance issues (eg: one window crank didnt work, ceiling fan broken but ac ok). Safe, clean, comfortable and great location

This clean, light-filled room had a beautiful, comfortable bed and nice walk-in shower. I appreciated the real coffee mugs next to the coffee maker! I’m so tired of the disposable cups I usually find in hotel rooms.
