Four hotel room types

Four hotel rooms, two sides of the building

Two of the rooms look out over East Grand Traverse Bay and two look toward the city. Every one has a fireplace, a TV and a thermostat of its own, so the real choice is which window you wake up to. Want all eight options in one table? Try the rooms and suites comparison.

Faces the bay

Which floor puts you where

Both Lakeview rooms look over the water. The ground floor opens onto the lawn and a private lakefront patio; the higher floor lifts you to a private balcony. Same kit inside, different distance from the sand.

If the name says Lakeview, it has a lake view. That is how the lodge labels them.

Ground floor

Lakeview Walkout Room

Step out of the door and you are on a private lakefront patio, with the lawn and the bay in front of you. Choose one king or two queens, then add a soaker spa tub, an electric fireplace and a flat-screen TV. Guest Elisa Boles put it plainly after a stay in a king walkout patio room: it was relaxing to sit on the patio in the morning.

Higher floor

Lakeview Balcony Room

A private balcony overlooks East Grand Traverse Bay from above the beach. You get the same one king or two queens, soaker spa tub, electric fireplace and individual climate control as the walkout, with a little more height and a little more sky.

Standard Room

On the south side of the building with city views, the Standard Room is the straightforward choice: one king or two queens, a soaker spa tub, an electric fireplace and a flat-screen TV. You still have the private beach, the firepits and the indoor pool, since they come with every stay.

ADA Accessible King Room

A barrier-free layout on the south side with one king bed, a roll-in shower and city views. The fireplace, flat-screen TV, individual climate control and high-speed Wi-Fi match the other rooms.

If you need something specific, call reservations on (231) 938-9744 and ask before you book, so the front desk can tell you what the room holds.

What is in every hotel room

The tub, the fireplace and the thermostat are the three things guests mention first. Here they are in the frame.
