Website is accurate - Hotels.com misrepresents
Brad is the host at Wauban Cottage and he is great. The place was extremely clean. The only issue is that Expedia and Hotels.com misrepresented the room we stayed in. The website by Brad was very clear that the bathroom for our room was across the hall. Hotels.com said it was ensuite and also private but not separate. Brad was unaware and apologized, unfortunately he has not control over how Hotels.com presents. Please go to website for accuracy.

We had a wonderful stay at Wauben Cottage. The cottage is beautifully unique and has a welcoming and warm feel. We especially enjoyed the screened in front porch which made for a pleasant evening of just relaxing and taking in the north country. Our host, Brad, was very personable and attentive. His dog, Max, won our hearts from the moment we arrived. We highly recommend Wauben Cottage and look forward to staying here again.

Sweet B&B in Northport, MI
Brad was the most gracious host. The house is super amazing, clean, comfortable, and has so much character. Breakfast was delicious, and Brad's attention to detail is wonderful. We would highly recommend this B&B for a stay in northern Michigan.

Pillows were not comfortable. Breakfast was scrambled eggs, biscuits and gravy on both mornings, materials on local amenities were limited, furnishings and decor were tired looking. Overall was rather disappointing.

10/10 Exceptional

I stayed for 2 nights and it was fine. I was there for an event and couldn't find a nearby hotel room, but this opened up literally at the last minute. It was expensive, but I was grateful to have found a room. We were out the door early, before their 8am breakfast but Brad was gracious and tried to get food set out earlier for us. It was quite a limited menu, same thing both days. Other reviews mentioned the mattresses needing replacement but mine was just fine. Room was clean, the place was charming and far more interesting than a hotel room. Best part aside from the hosts was the screened in porch. A nice place to chill before heading to sleep.

Our host, Brad, was very conversational, gracious, and showed interest that we were satisfied with our stay. It’s a unique, quaint B&B on a beautiful, spacious property. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. We would definitely stay here again next time we're in the area.
