Top Mancelona Hotel Reviews

The Lakeview Hotel, Shanty Creek Resort

The Lakeview Hotel, Shanty Creek Resort

8/10 Good
"The property (and room especially) is quite outdated. But the grounds are beautiful, the staff was overall pleasant and helpful and the bed was comfortable. Food and beverage choices were good and the common area was great to relax after a long day. The room itself was spacious but I don’t know the last time the shower had a a good scrub… yuck!"
