Top Bear Lake Hotel Reviews

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Manistee

8/10 Good

"The property was nice overall. Only complaint, the breakfast was only available from 6:30 to 7:30 M-Th. When on vacation Imost don't get up that early, it needs to be the same as the weekend schedule."

Manistee Inn & Marina

8/10 Good

"Nice place to stay, very convenient and within walking distance to food and shops. Older, but clean. Parking garage was closed for repairs, but accommodations were made for street parking. Short staffed, where the front desk clerk cleans rooms as well, but it all worked out. Would stay there again..."
