Staff was cheerful accessible fun. The ambiance was great, comfortable too. The Birch room bed and linens were great however could use a ceiling fan or the AC units need to be able to point the vent downwards toward the bed. Loved the outdoor patio. Can’t wait to venture back next year.

The OTIS is an awesome addition to the Harbor Springs area! Not only is it beautiful and well-decorated, but it’s comfortable, the staff are so kind and attentive, and the little details are thoughtful. The rooms are cute, the beds are comfy and we couldn’t have been happier with our stay! We were a little caught off-guard with our room not having a TV or mini fridge, but we made the best of it. And the bar is literally world-class! Just overall a 10/10 experience.

Great property. I love the overall look and feel. I stayed here before it was renovated and it's a whole lot better. There were a few things that could have been better but overall no major issues. The lounge and main building is awesome. The room we stayed in was kinda small but it was fine.
