I love The Bay Inn. I have stayed here multiple times over the last two years. It’s my go to property when I come to the area.. the rooms are beautiful. The beds are the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on in a hotel. The staff is outstanding, very communicative and super sweet..

Updated older hotel. My room was very nice and clean. I feel that $400 a night was overpriced but that seems to be the cost of the area.

The room was not a cookie cutter hotel room. Colors were very beautiful and calming, with nice decorating. A beautiful view of the lake. And we were able to tune in the Tigers game ... with a 12-2 win!!

Convenient location, just outside Petoskey. Little Traverse Wheelway runs nearby (currently right on the shoulder of us31). Beds are micro-foam mattresses , takes a little getting used to. Overall very nice.

We had a clean, aesthetically pleasing room with a very comfortable bed. Check in/Check out was very convenient and easy. We had no issues with road noise or thin walls. The Inn has beautiful views and we enjoyed the outdoor fire places and caught a stunning sunset. The Inn’s location is close to everything we wanted to do on our trip in Northern Michigan and will definitely book again.
Such a cute room with decor that has tasteful nods to the area
View from the patio area right across from the lake!

Our room was not in a great location and hidden way back off of the main building. The main building has a beautiful view of the water and unfortunately we had none. The Wi-Fi was slow and continually disconnected along with the television searching for a signal every five minutes.
