"updating needed in bathrooms - shower a little disheveled "

"Very comfortable room with balcony view of Grand Traverse Bay. Staff were pleasant and very helpful. This is a real gem among the many water front hotels on the bay."

"Great place to stay. Awesome beach! Very safe for small kids "

"So it took us an embarrassing amount of time to figure out where check in was. Hint, it’ll feel like you’re in the wrong place but you’re not. The staff at check in was helpful and efficient. I was taken aback at how beautiful the building and the views were. I imagine in its early days it was even more incredible. Vintage, high end ski lodge vibes. With the map we were provided at checkin we found our lodge/room relatively easily. I was disappointed our room didn’t have its own balcony, but it was rather a balcony for that floor/side. Some of the balconies had rotted wood, so that was a little unnerving. Our room was in the Blue Spruce Lodge, 2nd floor. The stairway and hallways were beautiful and unique- full of character and charm. We checked out the bar with live music in the evening. It was mostly middle age guys there on golf trips. Not exactly a happening nightlife scene but it made a beautiful spot to see the sunset across the hilly landscape. Our room was clean and comfortable. The lodge close to town. While it did have some quirks and could stand some updates, overall we really enjoyed our stay there. I prefer to stay somewhere with character, rather than a cookie cutter hotel. "

"The front desk lady was very nice to give us activities around the area and they were such good places to visit! We went to the lavender fields that she recommended and it was very fun!"

"Great breakfast "

"Nice and clean. The room was bigger than I had expected. Convenient location. The mattress is softer than what I prefer, and comfortable. There is a desk and a chair and a sofa."

"The resort was very clean and the room we had was great. It was a corner room with lots of views. We dined at the Steakhouse in the Casino. Excellent prime rib, the bread service served with olive oil and garlic was delicious. "

"We had a great stay. Much more peaceful than staying right in Traverse City on 31. Aerie was delicious. Renovated rooms were very nice. "
