Location: Walkable to downtown shops and festivals

“The position right on the harbor offers a truly captivating view, a constant visual anchor to Lake Michigan, with the surrounding marina and downtown area easily explored on foot. Rooms are generally kept clean and spacious, providing a comfortable base, though the on-site restaurant, while convenient, serves dishes that are rather average. This location feels particularly well-suited for enjoying the waterfront and local charm.”
