Dune Climb Inn
Overnight stay. Used their loaner bikes for a 10 mile morning ride. The bikes need servicing overall, but I’m not complaining. No complaints and I’d stay there again.

Kasa Gold Coast Inn Traverse City
It was a great clean safe hotel (staying by myselft, I felt safe) The only addition would have been nightstands on both sides of the bed. I recently dislocated my shoulder so It was hard for me to have axcess . Other than that... great!
