Facility was average overall. Outside around buildings was excellent. Room was average at best. Remodeling needed. Room furniture was cheap and not very usable. Not very flexible for the breakfast provided. Had to have a reservation for the breakfast that was included and make your limited breakfast selection a day in advance. Food was fine though.

Stay @SI in any season
Great customer service! Traveling and needed a place to stay near the SS Badger as part of a longer road trip. Received a call alerting us of the office closing time 9pm CST, how to access room with easy late check-in, and to take our breakfast order. Room was quite cozy and met our basic needs for brief stay. Breakfast was delish, and SI was only minutes away from the dock. Will look to rebook when back in Ludington! (Also recommend eating lunch at The Wharf when docking in Manitowoc)

A quaint place with a healthy breakfast as to that of a traditional hotel. Koi pond and back deck were very peaceful. Staff was available and super nice! Would stay again!
