it was great
Pros:

rooms, pool, hot tub, breakfast - everything was very nice

Cons:

the fact that there was no shuttle to Turtle Creek Casino as shown on their website. Not your fault by no means, but you should have the casino remove your name from their website.

A great option in Traverse City
Pros:

Great hotel right on the bay. The decor is like fancy 70's style, which I kind of liked. The resort was very clean and the staff was very friendly. I extended my stay because it is a great place.
