Super nice lady

People beside us partied all night i pounded on wall to no avail. Needless to say not much sleep and bed are hard as plywood

Hard bed but it's just a sleep n go

Nice fishing lodge area served its purpose somewhere to lay your head to sleep and shower although it needs a water booster for the shower pressure was weak at best. Could be normal for the area I’m not sure. Staff was great and welcomed us in with a smile and exchanged towels daily. No restaurants near buy, If the bar was open and served average bar menu, wings, pretzel, burger or even just a club sandwich would probably draw more of a crowd. I would return.

A nice economical room that’s really close to the charter docks. We would stay again!

This truly a blast from the past Reminds me of those old school motels alongside route 66 back in the late 50's early 60's fun stay Not much of anything around it.

Great location, close to the fishing marina, and nice host!

Property was kind of rundown

Bar/Restaurant not open. Hard to get food delivered.

it was quiet and in the country

It’s super clean and this is my main requirement when I stay at any hotel. Very pleased and of course the price was great.

Clean, bug free and just what I needed.

Fair place to stay for 1 night, relatively clean except for some cobwebs. The beds were comfortable, and it was fairly quiet except for some traffic noise, but being on a main road, to be expected.

Yucky

Advertised bar and restaurant for breakfast only. Neither operational. Blankets on bed were terribly thin, bedspreads ugly and very old fashioned.

Super nice lady at office.. always give amazing service

Staff was very friendly, the room was clean and lots to do in short drive time.

Extended weekend getaway.

The room was on par with typical motel rooms for the same price point. The room was clean, had all of the necessities, and was bug-free. It, along with the general facility, could use some updating. What made a difference for me was the staff. Linda (owner, I'm assuming) was very helpful and went out of her way to make sure i was comfortable for my stay (over several days). Had a nice discussion with her husband as well. Made me really feel at home.

The location was attractive to us because of why we were in the area! The reviews we read were fairly positive, but we would have otherwise spent more for a different place! The apparent owner was friendly and helpful!

i did not stay there . i was with my family and this place is in the middle of no where no restaurants no gas station , weeds growing up thru the parking lot saturday evening when i got there and no one around .my impression was a very erie place.

Horrible !!!

Horrible, has this place passed health inspection? I thought I was going to get some disease staying there

Bad advertising

The first thing this motel promotes is it’s bar/ restaurant. There is NO bar restaurant. This property is very isolated so be warned. The closest near by bar restaurant is also closed on Mon. & Tues.

1st room smelled terribly of smoke so we were given a different room, the only only rm available which we appreciate. But the a/c was not working, there was no coffee maker, the water smelled and tasted terrible.

Wonderful motel and Fabulous friendly staff

This Motel is run by a lovely woman names Linda. It's located between Magee Marsh and Maumee Bay State Park. It looks out onto cornfields and is generally just an extremely peaceful and wonderful spot. The only thing I didn't like about it was but they pretty much drench their rooms in either Febreze or some kind of Glade air freshener or some kind of very strong disinfectant that smells sweet not like a hospital. And I have asthma and so it was difficult for me to deal with the strong smelling chemicals. The windows don't open so I couldn't air the room out that way. But otherwise I just love the place I've stayed twice so far and I will absolutely go there again. They have a refrigerator and a microwave and the refrigerator is not one of those ridiculous little Cubes but instead big enough with a small freezer to hold all the food in my cooler as well as the large freezer packs that I used to keep my food cold. It's generally just a wonderful location and run by very kind people and although it's not the Ritz, it's exactly what I wanted. Peace and quiet and friendliness and clean.

Birding Motel

Good location for local birding spots. Cheap price, run down but functional enough, nice lady managing things.

It’s just an older hotel, staff was friendly. Not very romantic

Very decent stay

This is a really decent place to stay. It is not the most updated but it is Clean! There are clean sheets and towels and enough towels. There is cable tvon mounted flat screens. The microwaves and fridges work! Parking is free and near your room and the staff is very accommodating. Toilets may flush a little slowly and AC units may run a little noisily, but overall, all the basic needs are met and the price is very reasonable.

Quiet and clean. It was nice.

Older but very pleasant stay

The hotel is a little old could use some updates. But we had great service. The lady running the hotel was so nice and helped with everything. The room was very, very clean. Hotels since covid dont make up beds everyday, but we came back from our long day of bird watching to a clean room with clean towels. The beds were comfortable. The water was hot. And there is wifi! About 4 miles from Maumee Bay State Park which has great beaches. Close to Ottawa County Wildlife Reserve and Maggie's Marsh.

Dump

A dump. No restaurant, very outdated and old.

Can't beat the price.

The Lake Erie Lodge is a no-frills motel that has a niche. The manager was helpful in recommending places to eat. Room was clean, air conditioner worked, bed was comfortable. You get more than what you pay in nightly rates.

Well, whatever you think about $75/night motel will come true. Property is in desperate need of renovation. Smell and smell of cover up chemicals in the room was so think, you can slice it with a knife. However it was cheap accomodation for me during National matches at Camp Perry and it fulfilled the role. Drink, sleep and get out.

Great little place

Went up for a shooting class at Camp Perry. We booked last minute, this place was inexpensive compared to everything around. It was clean, water pressure was good, quite and there was a marina close for anyone wanting to stay here and go fining. Wills be back again for a weekend I’m the water fishing.

Room was clean, beds were clean. Staff "Linda" was amazing!!

The restaurant and lounge are closed. The outside lights went out around 10:30 p.m. making it very unsafe to go to the car. Bring your own water and coffee creamer

This motel was cute and a good place to stop for the night. Expedia deleted my reservation and the lady at the front desk was very helpful. It’s a bit older of a building. The beds were quite firm and the linens thin, but it had everything we needed!

I gave it a try

The woman who runs this place is the sweetest but the hotel itself needs a complete over haul. No way this is up to Covid standards. There were ants in the bathroom. The bathroom door had a terrible patch job thrown on it to I’m assuming fix a very large hole in it. The bathroom door wouldn’t close all the way and the ceiling tiles in the bathroom had a bunch of water damage. The door to get in and out of the room was a struggle to open and close and there were fly’s constantly.

Awesomeness

This is a family owned motel. Nothing fancy about it but it is a great place to stay for the price and has all you need. Very clean.

Good value

Great place to stay if you are birding in the area as it is close to Maumee Bay, howard Metro park, Ottawa NWR and Magee Marsh. Room was clean and bed is comfortable.

Clean comfortable and reasonable

Really nice check in lady. 4 of us in a 2 double bed room left little extra room but the beds were comfortable, water pressure good, and we slept ok considering how excited we were to get started bird watching at super nearby Magee’s Marsh. Nice place - we hope to be back next year.

It was perfect for an overnight stay prior to a chartered fishing trip. Basic room, nothing exciting, early in the season so the bar & reataurant werent open

Room was clean. Towels had stains. Can tell is is an older hotel.

If you need somewhere to sleep this place is ok. Looking for food your options are limited unless you feel like driving.

Water stains on drop down ceiling. Bar on site with people walking around with drinks outside of room. Premises very tired. Likely good as a fishing lodge, not good for families.

Great friendly staff, convenient location, and quiet.

Quiet, clean. There are some nice places to eat convenient distance away. Good wifi, friendly staff. Will stay here again.

Nice and quiet

Quiet, good housekeeping

Cute, Clean, Quiet

Cute place...can use a little updating but nice, clean and quiet.

Basic motor inn.

We just needed inexpensive lodging for a night of our road trip. This lodge is fine, though I still think it's over-priced for how basic the accommodations are. The proprietor was quite friendly. The beds were comfortable. A few things that made it less than wonderful: the water smelled of sulfur, and for that reason we didn't take advantage of in-room coffee maker. there was no coffee available in the lobby, though there was an ice machine. The door had one lock, but the second deadbolt didn't work. Being down on the street level with an exterior entrance means we like to have extra security. The room was what you'd expect from an older motor inn. Happily, there was no smokey or musty smells, so that was nice! There are no places to eat nearby, so we were glad we had a cooler along.

Everyone was nice and it’s a quite area.
