Top Bear Lake Hotel Reviews

Coastal Suites Resort

10/10 Excellent

"非常安静"

Manistee Inn & Marina

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was clean and comfortable. Of course, it's mainly the furnace and corner areas that aren't clean. But overall, the place felt good, clean, quiet and relaxing. It was nice to have coffee in the morning. We were right on the strip in Manistee, so all we had to do was walk out our room to the outside world of Main Street in Manistee. The river was behind us, and it was a great place to walk to. We felt safe in all ways. The only downside of the trip was the parking lot being renovated but we were able to find good parking on the street. I highly recommend this hotel. We will be back again but for longer. Thank you for a memorable trip."
