Guest Reviews
- Susan (6/5): - Outside need cleaning and inside updated
- Stephen (10/5): Lovely place - It was warm and cozy, very welcoming. We didn't travelnwithbanpetnthos tome, so not sure if they are pet friendly or not.
- Stephanie (10/5): - Nice place to stay and very friendly ans accommodating hosts!
Gorgeous lake in the fall! Centrally located to many scenic areas.
We will be back for a longer stay. One night was not long enough!
- Janet (4/5): - Small, dark room. Although it was on a lake there was. I lake access and only one small window. When we went for breakfast there were 3 boiled eggs and small packaged muffins or donuts. No tissue in the room and when I asked for some I was given a packet of ten tissues. Would not stay here again.
- Buck (10/5): - Beautiful location, nice quaint accomodations, & felt so at home & welcomed.
- Robyn (10/5): Cute and cozy - This is a cute cozy place. The lake is a nice place to just relax and enjoy the peace and quiet.
- Julie (10/5): - The setting is beautiful on the quiet lake. The owners are trying to stay on top of the aging in property. Coffee and light food was nice to enjoy in the morning.
- Heidi (10/5): - Motel check in area was very quaint. Owner was very pleasant to chat with during registration. Location was beautiful.
- Kathy (10/5): Will be back - Our second time here. Great place to stay. Very quiet & calm.
- Rita (10/5): - Beautiful location. Rooms with Lake views. Enjoyed our stay.
- LAUREL (10/5): - What a gem! This is a very cosy, small hotel on a quiet road. Owners were welcoming and provided lovely touches and TLC: there's a patio with flowers, a picnic table by the beach, boats to rent, nice breakfast options (fruit, yogurt, boiled eggs, juice boxes), ice was available and beach towels, etc. We had a room with one queen bed. It was very clean. It was small, but had a desk area, fridge, microwave, and everything we needed. The room's window overlooked a peaceful lake, and we heard loons calling. A grocery store and many dining options are a half-mile down the road. Would definitely stay again--but for longer next time!
- mike (10/5): - Nice clean place with a great view
- Robert (8/5): - Great lake view. Some issues with tv, possibly due to weather, also no instructions for use and channel selection. Could use more outlets for coffee pot etc. Small table would be nice for table games in room, possibly a folder.
- Brenda (10/5): Worth getting the reservation in early - We stay here while diving at Fortune Pond if we are only in town for a couple nights. The beds are comfortable and the bathroom is appointed nicely.
- Timothy (10/5): - This hotel stay was a last-minute add on to our trip. I was so pleased with the accommodations! I wish we could have extended our vacation to stay an extra night. The room was clean and comfortable, and we loved the amenities that we used on the lake. However, what I appreciated most were the way the owners interacted with the guests. When we returned from dinner the owners were building a bonfire, and spent some time talking with the guests around the fire. In the morning, there was a large table that the guests could sit around and talk to each other while eating breakfast. The owners seem to care about their guests, and the experience that they have. I would recommend this hotel to others, and would stay again with no hesitation.
- David (10/5): - Great place
- Marc (10/5): - Wonderful rooms, views and staff. Highly recommended.
- Elizabeth (10/5): Great place to stay. Looking forward to returning - warm friendly people in a beautiful setting with comfy and quiet rooms.
- Kathy (8/5): - I liked the peacefulness
- Larry (10/5): - The beds were very comfortable, swapped very well choice of food in area was limited, but well tasteful
- Thomas (10/5): - Bonnie was great. Friendly. Room very clean. Queit place.
- Michael (10/5): Lakeside - Great view! Nice quiet lakeside lodge!
- Daniel (10/5): - This is in my hometown. I was there for a wedding. I had an unexpected and unpleasant experience at another motel in Mackinaw City. Lakeshore Motel is clean, quiet and the owners are very pleasant.
- John (10/5): - Quiet mom and pop motel owners on site were just awesome great place
- Jaystin (10/5): They hold it down here! - Very kind folks running this family owned business. Definitely happy with my stay! They have a continental breakfast too which is unfortunately not that common with small town motels but these folks hold it down!

- Heather (10/5): - Very cute and clean stay. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
- Sharon (10/5): - Very clean and comfortable. Yhe room is on the smaller side but very comfortable.
- Kristen (6/5): - Our stay was ok. The room was clean and the staff at check-in was lovely but the hotel itself is a bit tired. The carpet on the stairs outside of the building was worn and dirty looking. My daughter ended up tripping and falling coming off of the stairs as the transition from stairs to concrete pad was unmarked. All in all, the stay was fine but nothing to write home about.
- Marion (10/5): Lovely Lakeside Motel - Beautiful lakeside motel and cabins. Very friendly, helpful staff. Charming and relaxing, with lake views, boat rentals, and a campfire in the evening!.
Clean and comfortable!
- Ronald (10/5): - Retro Motel with UP North decor. Owners very nice. Room was clean with a nice view of lake. Quick sleep with early departure. Easy access to Hwy 2. Modern food/grocery store very close. Gas station in town opens @4am so coffee & donuts are available.
- Melissa (10/5): Hidden gem! - Friendly staff and extremely clean!!!
- Bryan (10/5): - We had a Great stay! Thanks Bonnie and Mike!
- Jamie (10/5): Exceptional - Close to the hospital because that's were my husband had appointment Not enough pillows on the bed
- Patrick (6/5): Pfft! - The room was a good size, however, there was no way to regulate the heat to a comfortable level. It was extremely hot in the room, we had to open the windows in an attempt to cool it down a bit. The knob on the air conditioner was broken. The mattress was very uncomfortable and saggy. Overall for the price it was "okay" but I probably would not stay there again if I was in the area.
- Jackie (8/5): - Room was nice. Property is beautiful.Staff was polite and friendly. Bed was not comfortable.
- Robert (10/5): - Excellent hosts! The property owners are lovely and friendly. The rooms are clean and comfortable. We always enjoy our stay here.
- Rick (10/5): Great. - I wi ll be back !
- Rich (8/5): - Great stay, beds very uncomfortable. Everything else was great.
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gary (6/5): - The owners are very friendly and likable. I enjoyed our conversations.
The only thing I didn't like was the room. To me, it was cramped. In several places, duct tape covered ??? on the floor. The room was clean.
- Brenda (8/5): - It was a very nice property and the staff was wonderful
- Monica (10/5): - Such a pleasant surprise! My Fiancé and I came up for an overnight stay to Ski Brule and wanted somewhere close by. Exactly what we needed for the night- no frills but very cozy. Mark and Bonnie were great hosts and we enjoyed the onsite breakfast before hitting the slopes!
- Peggy (8/5): Very good - Very quiet and clean; very friendly owners; beautiful lake view
- Dana (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location! Manager, will work with you. Even if the lobby is closed. Breakfast, light and tastey.
- Sheila (10/5): - Our room was clean and cozy.
- Matthew (10/5): Nice place that is very well maintained. - Super clean Beds were super firm which may be great for some but just not quite my preference.
- Bill (8/5): - Cute breakfast setup.
- Randolph H (10/5): - The property is a great stay, it is affordable and the owners are very attentive to customer needs. A clean and comfortable room. I will be back on future trips.

Very memorable trip, and I’d recommend Lakeshore Motel to anyone staying in the area!
- Mark (10/5): - The staff was excellant!
- karen (10/5): - Our stay was short & sweet, Bonnie was so nice and the room was great (cute) with a view of the lake. They offer coffee & a continental breakfast every morning and row & paddle boat rental options to enjoy on Ice Lake. We would absolutely stay here again.
- Vicki (10/5): - This was our second time staying at the Lakeshore motel Ice Lake if you want a place that takes you back to simplier days this is it.
Beautiful knotty pine rooms very clean lots of places to storage your luggage and totes so they are out of the way and then to top that the lake.Our room had a window with a desk that looked right out to the lake amazing view watching the sunset at night was amazing, in the morning went out to the dock and watched the sunrise and took a selfie could not resist was so beautiful and the water smooth as glass very serene and guiet this is definiety our go to motel for a recharge will be goinging back
Oh and can't forget the owners BEST EVER!! Mike & Bonnie are wonderful, engage in conversation, need anything they are there to help
Loved our time there
Steve & Vicki Weber
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Always a nice comfortable stay with a fabulous view of Ice Lake.
- Mark (10/5): - Beautiful spot on the water. Surprisingly quiet for the number of folks staying there.
- Sharon (8/5): Very good - Too high of step to get into room.
- Robert (10/5): - The owners are very friendly
- Ursula (10/5): - I knew I hit a homerun when I walked in the office to check in and the aroma of fresh bread baking filled the air! My room had charming rustic appeal with a beautiful view of the lake. Support local and stay here if you're in the area, you won't be disappointed! Thank you for a great stay!
- Tracey (10/5): - This is a super cute motel! The surrounding area is gorgeous and the staff are very friendly. Wish there had been a couple more options in the continental breakfast but otherwise it was a lovely stay. Rooms have nice decor!
- Roberta (10/5): - Bonnie and Mike were very pleasant. Working to maintain the property, doing a great job by the way. Very homey feel to this motel. Rooms very clean.
- Zarrin (10/5): A nice motel in a pretty location - This is a nice motel with clean rooms and good service. The rooms are very cabin cute, with nice views of the lake. The staff was very nice, boats are provided for use on the lake, as well as grills, picnic tables, and a fire circle. It was full while we were there, but quiet. The included breakfast was basic, but fine.
- Joanne (10/5): - Friendly staff.Room was very clean. Excellent shower.
- Alan (10/5): - The owners are very nice people and very helpful with your needs. The view is fantastic of the lake.
- Jesse (10/5): Exceptional -
- Joel (9/5): great place to stay, we will be back -
- Cindie (10/5): - Loved my stay. I hope to be back.
- Lisa (4/5): Couldn't wait to leave - Breakfast was no big deal The property looked nothing like the pictures on line. We actually thought we were at the wrong motel
- Frances (7/5): It was perfectly acceptable for our three night stay. Owner was most helpful and accommodating. - The people were very friendly and helpful. Beds were comfortable, towels were thick and fluffy. Breakfast was good. 😌 There was no fan or hooks in the bathroom, no Kleenex, no room phone or alarm. No decaf.
Tub doesn’t drain well.
- Julie (10/5): - Friendly, peaceful, clean and comfortable!
- Margaret (10/5): - Very clean and comfortable. Definitely staying here again next time we come out.
- Corinne (8/5): Cosy room with view in the lake - Nice cabin style room with view on the lake. A little small and dated but for one night, it was fine.
- Noelle (2/5): - I would feel safer at the Bates Motel than this place. I've traveled the world and stayed in some questionable places but I have never been this frightened or verbally attacked, like I was by the owners of this place. The owners, were verbally abusive and not willing to admit fault or apologize for violating our privacy.
When my child and I left the room in the morning, we made sure to put the placard on the outside of the door, stating that no service was needed. I double checked because one of my siblings had stayed there and had their room entered too. When we came back, the placard wasn't on the door and it was obvious someone had been in the room. It was a very frightening experience and we felt violated. I went to speak to the owner, and she said to me, "Maybe you didn't put the do not disturb sign on the door". I told her I double checked because the same thing happened to my sibling. She stated her husband found one in the parking lot. Then she said the cleaner had to go in the rooms. She full of excuses but not apologetic at all. I was dismayed at her lack of compassion and walked away from her. She followed me out of the office, yelling at me in the parking lot. I was terrified by her behavior. My child and I did not feel safe there and booked a room elsewhere. When I went to get a refund for the next night I had booked, they called the police. Not worth the terror and fear just because it's cheap. The beds are old and horrible too.
- Mary (8/5): Very good -
- Jerome (10/5): Ice Lake Nirvana - Great location, comfortable rooms, super service.
- Melody (10/5): Very nice. - Lovely location peaceful.
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional - The staff was very accommodating and helpful. Great breakfasts.
- Ann (10/5): - I have stayed here many times. There are newer owners. 3 yrs. The property is very well.taken of. Staff super nice
- Thad (10/5): Beautiful location with great owners - It was a quick stop on the way for a quick business trip in the UP!
For reference, I generally stay at 3-4 star hotels. These rooms were very clean, beds comfortable, owners very friendly, beautiful setting a couple minutes, to a handful of minutes drive to everything you need in Iron River.
Reasonable continental breakfast offered.
Super cool guy who is a fish guide on site who will take you out and give you the experience of catching fish!
I love Michigan, and I loved this hotel!
Would love to stay again!
- Joseph (10/5): I had a very pleasant stay. The staff was very friendly. I would stay again if in the area. - The breakfast was good, but simple.
- Liana K (10/5): - Quaint
- Henry (10/5): - Nice family-run motel.
- Gwilym (8/5): - The owners were friendly and helpful, but the notices in the bedroom were made us feel "threatened"e.g an envelope worded to give a tip to the housekeeper who we never saw/ 3 towels with a notice that they were not to be used for bathing..why were they there?/ notice for the fee for damages to towels ..the one for 1bathtowel would pay for all decent towels in the room .
I would not stay here again.
- Robert (8/5): The owners are very nice but I guess we were expecting a newer facility - Breakfast was ok but very basic The shower is small and the spray head too low
- Jay (8/5): - The motel was great, as was the staff. My only concern is that people in town were not particularly friendly.
- D (9/5): Superb -
- Becca (9/5): Superb - Staff was super friendly, room was clean and beds were comfortable. The view from our room overlooked the lake.
