    Recomiendo este hotel frente al Río Michigan a ojos cerrados. Tiene una de las vistas más hermosas que me he quedado. Su personal completo es muy atento. Me sentí como en casa.

    The front desk ladies were very helpful with us making plans for our stay, where to go in town, and how to use the amenities at the resort. It was a beautiful view and a peaceful atmosphere.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    We visited off the season and it was a great place to stay at even in Spring! Beautiful, peaceful and great views!

  • Engine customer May 2026

    We were just off season so the attractions were not open, but we had a great time hiking the ski slopes. It was May so they were just steep grassy hills but great cardio! The landscape was beautiful! The restaurant on site was excellent and we had the same waitress each time we visited. She was wonderful!

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Very good dinner food & drinks. Activities were not open yet (we went before Memorial Day). They had a running/marathon event going on & even with all the people it did not feel crowded!

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Clean rooms, restaurant was great and the staff was great. Great view of the Mississippi river.

  • Engine customer May 2026
