We stay at Sugar Beach or Grand Beach every year when we come for the soccer tournament. It is clean, we love the pool and beach, and love going to play putt putt across the road.

The location was great & had a really pretty beach view/area. Our room was mediocre. The mini fridge was leaking the entire time & our TV kept turning on throughout the night... Very disruptive. The packaged breakfast was nice. They only upkeep the rings every 3rd night which isn't ideal but were quick to bring us more towels. The price was WAY too high for what we received. We love Traverse City but will look for different accommodations next visit.

We got a room on the first floor with patio. Wonderful view from patio/window and exit to the beach. Chairs/towels are available. We rented a boat next to the hotel. Nice experience. Hotel offers free breakfast, but it is not worth it, better to go to the local restaurants which are a lot around the hotel. Clean, quiet hotel (furniture are bit outdated).
