I love The Bay Inn. I have stayed here multiple times over the last two years. It’s my go to property when I come to the area.. the rooms are beautiful. The beds are the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on in a hotel. The staff is outstanding, very communicative and super sweet..

Updated older hotel. My room was very nice and clean. I feel that $400 a night was overpriced but that seems to be the cost of the area.

The room was not a cookie cutter hotel room. Colors were very beautiful and calming, with nice decorating. A beautiful view of the lake. And we were able to tune in the Tigers game ... with a 12-2 win!!

The location was great. Nice view of the bay. Private. Housekeeping is not great. There is no ice machine or vending. Only hotel I've ever been to that doesn't have phones. I still enjoyed my stay here. The location is very nice.

We had a clean, aesthetically pleasing room with a very comfortable bed. Check in/Check out was very convenient and easy. We had no issues with road noise or thin walls. The Inn has beautiful views and we enjoyed the outdoor fire places and caught a stunning sunset. The Inn’s location is close to everything we wanted to do on our trip in Northern Michigan and will definitely book again.
Such a cute room with decor that has tasteful nods to the area
View from the patio area right across from the lake!
