Best Lake Vacation Ever
We stayed at the "Yellow Motel" for a family reunion, and it was better than expected. The beach was perfect for the little ones and the weather was amazing. The kids loved the canoes and kayaks. We ate breakfast, lunch and dinner outside in the pavilion. Jason and Debbie were great hosts with great communication and were so accommodating. We definitely hope to return.

Wonderful Vacation Spot
Everything was just as advertised. The owners/managers were very easy to work with. We loved having the sandy shore for the children to play in the water. The big grassy area was a plus for the children to play games. We also loved all the places to see in the area such as Mackinaw Island and the lighthouses. Definitely will return to this vacation spot.

Our Family Loved It!
Our family of 17 enjoyed a wonderful week at the Yellow Motel, as one of our granddaughters called it. Many other reviews have commented on all the great things about it, so I won't repeat those here (though they are ALL TRUE); rather, I will list a few facts, none of which are deal-breakers, which I personally would have found it helpful to know ahead of time. * there is high chair! Very helpful, as we had two 1-year-olds with us. * The listing says the kitchen is fully equipped, and in truth, it is quite well-equipped. However, there is nowhere near enough silverware for the number of people who can stay there, especially spoons. I recommend bringing some. * I was thrilled to read on the listing about an outside refrigerator; in fact there are three, which was just great. * The living/dining space is smaller than I thought (from the pictures). It wasn't a major problem, but we did have 4 days of questionable weather ranging from all-day rain to rather windy and cool, and it got kind of full in there at times. * There were no dishrags (just one sponge) and no dish soap, laundry dishwasher soap or laundry detergent. These are often supplied in rentals, but be sure to bring some! Overall, we loved our stay here. The arrangement of the rooms worked so well for all our people, it's easy driving to a number of fun and interesting places, and the hosts were easy to contact and responsive to any issues we had.

Great experience!
Pavillion was a great area to hang out in. Swimming area was great to lounge on a float and shallow enough not to have to worry about little ones. Property managers were friendly. Our entire family enjoyed their stay. Highly recommend.

Great and unique find for large groups
The beauty of the lake view and surrounding area is almost overshadowed by the convenience of having rooms with individual showers and bathrooms. This is a fantastic find for those of you struggling to find that affordable lake spot for a big group. As many adventures or peaceful moments as you need.
