Pros:

The VIEWS 😍 We wanted VIEWS of the water- delivered!! Stunning! Sunrises- stunning! Walking out the back door to Lake Superior, phenomenal! Staff was beyond helpful, especially when we decided to stay another night. Lake walk is right there. Downtown is literally a block away. Continental breakfast is delicious!! And if you go hungry, you are stupid- something for everyone!

Cons:

Nothing.

Good Breakfast and employees providing it
Cons:

Enjoyable and relaxing!!!!
Pros:

The "smoke" from the wild fires affected the view from the room/however, the walks to various sites, the ability to sit around the "fire" at night & eat smores,the inside seating area to relax with friends, the wonderful breakfast in the A.M. and the fantastic pool were ALL EXCEPTIONAL!!!

Cons:

air quality---entirely out of your control

Hätte für das Geld mehr erwartet. Insgesamt aber ok.
Pros:

Lage war gut, Waschraum

Cons:

Braucht Renovierung innen, Waschraum veraltet mit Maschinen für Münzen (nicht wie sonst pberall mit Kreditkarte), keine Zeitangabe an den Maschinen, sodass man nix planen konnte.
