Great little spot in a great location

Great little Motel situated on the North side of Ephraim, just a few minutes away from Sister Bay. Clean. Economical. Easy check-in and checkout. Nice breakfast with both hot and cold options and shady spots to eat around the pool. Small business with easy parking. If you're looking for a nice but less expensive place to stay, this motel is a great option.

This is a beautiful, quiet motel that is only a short distance away from the always-busy town of Eprhaim during the summer season. We loved the flowers, nice hotel staff (Sarah in particular) and the pleasant hotel guests. This was our second stay and we'd like to come back.

Very clean, outdoor pool very well kept, beautiful well kept flowers all around the property. Playground out back for kids, very nice!! Grills on property if you want to grill out. The breakfast provide very nice choices! They thought of so many details to make your stay very pleasant! Staff very friendly. The only thing I can say negative is the airconditioning unit, is a little noisy and blows so hard even on low and it is directly in line with the bed, so that was a little bothersome on the first night, so I put the moveable chairs in front of it to lessen the wind on me, cause we needed it on or it would get to stuffy in the room. All in all, we loved our stay and would definitly return!! (Mini golf course right across street, older one, but nice enough and we enjoyed that, and close enough to drive to the downtown Ephraim shops and restraunts and water. Fish Creek close enough too for more restraunts and shops and water, along with the marina.

I liked the grounds with the flowers however wasn’t happy with the fact that I booked the room in advance and ended up getting a room under the stairs. With a garbage can view disappointed also trying to drive in the back was hard with no mirrors to see if there’s an oncoming car coming towards you.

Quaint and comfy

Quaint and comfortable. The only suggestion would be to invest in some silverware, inexpensive dishes, and a dishwasher—I felt bad using plastic utensils and paper plates for breakfast. The to-go cups are nice, but maybe using some motel mugs would be nice and eco-friendly.

We stayed here over the 4th of July holiday and everything was great. The entire property was very clean including our room. We could tell that they really cared about taking care of things and saw employees out everyday cleaning and tidying things up. We stayed with our two year old so the playground and heated pool were a definite plus. We would stay here again and recommend it to anyone staying in the area.
