We had a wonderful time at the resort! The location on the bay offered beautiful views and easy access to the beach. The staff was exceptionally attentive, ensuring we had a pleasant stay. The only drawback was the shower in our room, which felt a bit cramped and didn't have any shelves for toiletries. Overall, it was a relaxing experience with great amenities.

I had a wonderful stay at this resort spa with a stunning indoor heated pool and relaxing spa facilities. The room offered a fantastic water view, which added to my experience, though I found the breakfast selection lacking and the use of plastic cups a bit disappointing, especially for the price. Overall, the location near the beach is fantastic, but improvements in dining quality would make it even better.

My stay at this resort spa was fantastic! With stunning views of the bay, I enjoyed the beach right on my doorstep. The room was exceptionally clean and well-kept, and I truly appreciated the complimentary breakfast selection that offered more than just the usual fare. The pool and spa facilities looked inviting, although I didn't get the chance to use them due to my busy sightseeing schedule. The location was perfect for exploring Traverse City, although navigating out of the parking lot was a bit tricky with traffic. Overall, a great place to relax and unwind with family or friends.
