It's a unique experience as far as contactless facilities go and it's definitely for the better! Everything from booking to check-out was smooth and convenient. The room was more updated than anticipated and the view of Lake Superior is breathtaking. A highly recommended stay.

Nice, clean, and affordable
The Birchy was a nice, updated, and clean place to stay. I loved the contactless check in and check out. I loved the text reminders and emails about our stay. I loved the email that gave ideas of things to do and places to eat in the area. I would stay here again!

Pros and Cons
Pros, Good location, clean room and bathroom, fancy heated mirror in bathroom. Comfortable bed, but on the soft side. Cons, we had the corner room so the balcony was off the side of the building and not on the lake side. View of lake out window was obstructed by trees. Shower ran out of hot water after 1 shower. When heat turns on there is clicking sound every 5 seconds that comes from wall heater.

I have been staying at this location for 12 years off and on. I understand the new concept of the Birchy. It would be helpful if your cleaning staff knew how many nights the next guest were staying. We checked in for a 4 night stay for 2 people and have two bath towels and 2 coffee pods with no daily service. Went over to the main building to get towels, coffee and it was not stocked, Ian was nice enough to have someone bring towels for the rest of our stay. Supply more garbage bags for a longer stay, we went and bought garbage bags for the room. More hooks and shelves in bathroom, and the shower, there is no place to put soap or shampoo etc… chairs in rooms to sit on. The beds are very high, very soft. We ended up rotating the mattress, made a small difference, put your beds on a rotation schedule as they should be. Outdoor lighting should be changed with the seasons, 10pm in the fall it is pitch black, 7am same. It’s a good concept, just needs tweaking for guest use. Please mention in the amenities that in fall that the fire pits, grills are not available.

Really beautiful view and a great value for the location. We enjoyed the patio a lot. Two notes I would add, if you are hoping to view the northern lights you may want to go off premise as the property is very well lit. Great from a safety perspective, but less so for night sky viewing. There is some degree of road noise on the patio, but that comes with the territory of such a conveniently located roadside stay.
