Great place!

This was a perfect little place for us. Convenient to Interlochen where we attended a concert and affordable.we had a little bit of a tricky time with the code to get in but requested a new one and had no more issues.

The room was nothing fancy and had minimal space but, it had a larger refrigerator than most and a very pleasant setting by the lake. We spent one night here before going on to our 4-day vacation spot. I needed refrigerator space for food I was bringing so it was perfect for our needs.

Great view. Great value.

The room was very clean. Fife Lake is right outside your back door, and the room included an outdoor table, chairs, and a chair swing to take in the incredible view. We stayed there to go wine tasting in Traverse City. Fife Lake Lodge is a 35/40 minute drive from the city, but it costs less than most other options closer to TC.
