10/10 Excellent
"Very clean. Staff cleaning all areas as observed when walking by or when sitting. Don’t see this kind of hardworking employees anymore. Friendly and helpful too. Very comfortable and breakfast was good. 24/7 coffee which is a treat these days! Just a tad outdated but well kept. Highly recommend."

10/10 Excellent
"When we arrived, I feared I had been bamboozled by the interwebs and other reviews. The *OUTSIDE* of the property is nothing to write home about. It appears they have new owners possibly, as the name has changed google maps tells me. The inside of the room was immaculate. The outdoor carpeting going up the stairs and along the outdoor hallway leaves much to be desired, but as soon as we stepped in the room, my children gasped as it was not what they had expected, thankfully! The folks running the place seemed friendly, the room was very, very clean and looked new. The bed was comfortable. There was a great view of the water."

"The cleanest hotel I have ever stayed in. You could definitely see the pride in their establishment. The front desk clerk was very welcoming and made you feel like an honored guest. Even though the motel doesn’t serve breakfast, they had fresh coffee, granola bars and fruit for their guests. I would definitely stay here again!"

"Great property and hosts and great location. Only about an hour to painted rocks and nearby everything- even DoorDash. The water is shallow and pretty rocky but no issues with water shoes or something to float on. Great views, clean place, and so much room. We had more space than we expected which was nice."

"We really enjoyed our stay at Cooks. It was very comfy and well decorated. We had 3 couples and there was plenty of space for all of us. We had breakfast every morning. We did wish there had been a Keurig-but appreciated the U.P. Coffee they provided. The beds were very comfortable and the towels nice and soft. I hate thin towels! The view and sunsets were incredible. If you want to walk to Lake Michigan, it is a difficult with the tall grass."
