Pros:

Great location, nice rooms.

Cons:

It’s way overpriced for what you get. They also have a key shortage? So between two of us we had to juggle having one key. This was an inconvenience because we car and went a different times.

Very disappointing
Pros:

We loved that it was on the lake

Cons:

The hotel was dirty. Our shower /tub didn't drain properly. We brought it to the staff's attention and they apologized, but didn't compensate us. We were standing in 4 inches of water and the tub was filthy.
There were spiders hanging from the ceiling and all over the fixtures.
For $165 a night the continental breakfast had no hot food available and the hot tub was out of service.
We would not go back

Relaxing.
Pros:

The inn was quiet, clean, and nice. The breakfast was bare bones with dry cereal, bagels, milk, juice, and coffee. The hotel is right off of Lake Michigan, with a paved walking and biking trail next to the hotel. We would stay again if needed.
