Great location
This is a great location to stay at when going to the Silver Lake Off-road park. it is only 30 min from the park, and a few minutes to downtown Ludington. They have great trailer parking, and good prices. The pool was very nice. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful.

The exterior is rough due to age, but the room was clean and bed comfortable. Staff very friendly and allowed early check-in. Important to know that the room is basic. No frills but the price is right for the area and season.

Nice workers and clean room, but…
My husband was alone on the trip. There was not a “single usb” in the room. He also did not appreciate that there was no coffee maker or even cups in the room. He said people were smoking outside his room until 3 am, and they started up again early in the morning. The ac pulled the smoke into his room.

Clean but Small Room Mix-up
“The room was clean but quite small. We thought we were getting the larger deluxe room with a large bathtub, but ended up in a very small queen room with a toilet, sink, and standing shower. Additionally, there was no information provided about an extra charge for pets; it said pet-friendly, but there was a $25 daily fee.”

The staff at the motel are friendly. The rooms have new carpet, and the room I stayed in had a newer, very comfortable bed. The bathroom is dated. The small shower leaves a lot to be desired. The steaming hot and freezing cold water in the shower, does not help.
