We had a great time ! Rooms were exceptionally clean. We have stayed there when it was a holiday inn and poorly run. The new owners are putting money back in and it really shows. Love the location. Very close to downtown. Food was awesome. Looking forward to visiting again this summer and spending time on the beach and the... more

It's simply becoming a burden on the beach. This used to have a beautiful hotel (Holiday Inn)-- the nearby schools would rent it out for an evening and host Prom there, decorating the interior beautifully. Tourists would come from miles around to stay for an evening or two, and enjoy the romantic atmosphere of a pool overlooking the beach, or... more

We commend the staff and servers for the excellent seervice we had over the weekend. The rooms were clean and quiet. The food was very good and the entertainment was great. What else could you ask for. Plus it was an excellent value. more

We recently stayed here for one night while heading north. The restaurant food was good. The staff was friendly and helpful. The location on the beach was delightful. However, it is an older hotel with corridors that twist and turn. The hotel would benefit from a renovation. It was also relatively expensive. more

Average hotel with an average restaurant, but given the other mom & pop hotels in the area, its much better than anything else. Great location, near town, on the bay, with a really fun outdoor bar in the summer. Beach is ok, worth driving 10 minutes to the State Park if you want a nice sandy beach with waves. The... more

I coach a basketball team and we have been coming to the Tawas area for many years now to play in a tournament. Many times we like to have team meetings for 30 minutes or so and a normal hotel room is just too small. We requested to use a meeting/banquet room only to be turned down. I asked if... more

My husband, my brother-in-law and I stayed at the Tawas Bay Beach Resort while attending a friend's wedding. We booked with the property directly in March 2008 and did not speak with them again until the day we arrived, May 25. However, the day we arrived, the owner, Tracie, informed us that we were expected the day before and she... more

We were familiar with this property when it was the Holiday Inn and had always been pleased. Despite some slightly negative reviews found here and other sites, we decided to try it anyway. We're glad we did! Rooms were clean, breakfast at the restaurant was good, close by to the Nordic shop (ski rental shop) and a reasonable drive to... more

I was very pleased with the overall experience. The staff was congenial and helpful. The beach is lovely. I used the restaurant on the premises and the food was very good and the staff very professional. I hope this was helpful. My room had an adjoining door and I could hear the tv during the night but they gave us... more
