The Inn at Bay Harbor is the real deal. It's one of the best hotels I've stayed at, if not the best.
The view of the Little Traverse Bay and Lake Michigan is phenomenal. The rooms are outstanding and well-designed, providing a beach/cottage-like ambience with a luxurious feel...

Hands-down one of, if not our favorite place we have stayed. We loved the Inn at Bay Harbor...the resort was beautiful, immaculately maintained and was the perfect home-base for our family to explore northern Michigan. We loved watching our kids playing on the expansive yard along the shores of Lake Michigan...
